Report: Mossad behind Ergenekon plot
A report alleges that Israel's national intelligence
agency, Mossad has been behind the Ergenekon plot to topple the Turkish
government.
A secret investigation of detained Ergenekon group members and other studies
outside Turkey indicate that Mossad orchestrated coups against the Turkish
government, the Turkish daily Milliyet reported Sunday.
The Ergenekon group is a Turkish neo-nationalist organization with alleged links
to the military, members of which have been arrested on charges of plotting to
foment unrest in the country.
Investigators uncovered evidence that show a Jewish rabbi named Tuncay Guney,
who worked for Mossad and fled to Canada in 2004, was a key figure behind
attempts to overthrow the Turkish government, the paper said, Fars news
reported.
A document uncovered this week by the Sabah daily shows how Guney deliberately
infiltrated Ergenekon and another organization known as JITEM, an illegal
intelligence unit linked with the police and suspected of hundreds of murders
and kidnappings.
Meanwhile, a separate report by Turkish daily Yeni Safak has claimed that
Turkish security forces have discovered documents in Guney's Istanbul house that
disclose information concerning suspicious investment and economic activities by
certain Jewish businessmen in Turkey.
The businessmen allegedly have significant relations with individuals, political
groups and cultural organizations affiliated with the Ergenekon group.
Turkish security forces have detained many members of the Ergenekon group,
including retired army generals, politicians, popular lawyers and famous
journalists. The individuals currently face trail on charges of plotting to
overthrow Turkish Prime Minister, Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
