Psychological warfare fails

The fascist government of the AKP-MHP coalition is going currently through a such difficult phase, that the only mean left for them to cling to, is conducting excessive psychological warfare and feeding the society up with chauvinism.

The fascistic AKP-MHP government is undergoing currently such a difficult time, that they tried to hold the rein by resorting to a radical psychological warfare and instigating chauvinism among the population. The AKP-MHP government is indeed in its weakest status phase ever. No time before has any government been such cornered on the domestic front as well as regarding foreign affairs. And to become weak internally and in terms of foreign-policy generally induces the beginning of the fall.  The AKP-MHP coalition floats on a plank, that is shaking tremendously. If the democratic front strengthens its struggle, it will not take long for this regime to be toppled.

The fascistic AKP-MHP government is putting all its efforts into securing their internal support by concentrating its entire energy and power on murderous attacks against the Kurdish population. This way they want to assure the Turkish people to be victorious in their crackdown on the Kurdish Freedom Movement, by boasting daily with statements like: "We have hit them this hard, we have killed so many of them...". On the one side they conduct a psychological warfare of this sort, on the other side they effectively hide the real numbers of their killed and wounded policemen and soldiers. Now what is actual the reason that soldiers and policemen get killed one by one in the first place? After each guerrilla action against Turkish soldiers and security forces, the Turkish media reports losses of only one killed and two or three wounded elements. Clearly because they are simply not capable of hiding those professional actions, they try to lie up the truth of their heavy defeat by publishing fake news like that, what itself is nothing else than a discrepancy of their policy and of their determination. When registering those contractual soldiers, they have them sign the declaration that in case of their death, their names will not be disclosed to the public.

However when security forces and soldiers are killed in masses in Turkey's metropolises, they are left with no other option than admitting to it. Though we know that the numbers of the killed elements at those places are always minimized by the state media. As a matter of fact, when security elements are killed in the guerrilla actions en masse, they have it difficult to report of one or two dead soldiers, as was the case during the urban warfare in summer and autumn 2016 when they were forced to announce dozens of soldiers dead. Yet when it comes to the mountains it is an easy game for them to hide their killed soldiers from the Turkish public, and consequently they keep the number of their losses very low, if at all. This practice of psychological warfare has become mainstream. The society however needs to understand that they are confronted with massive psychological warfare and the reality is far different from what the state wants them to believe. It is of great significance that this truth gets perceived and conveyed to the public.

Tayyip Erdogan himself said during a meeting of the National Security Council of the Turkish state: "I need soldiers to die". He is used to propagating on martyrdom and openly exclaiming to be looking for men who are ready to die. He does this certainly not for the sake of nation and the people, but to preserve his dominium. Because in reality there never has been any kind of threat to the partition of the people and the country. What Kurds used to say was only a 'common country and a democratic nation'. But Tayyip Erdogan, who is sending soldiers and policemen to their certain death only to secure his own leadership, represents them above all as defenders of the country and people. Because the only thing he can think of is solely his hegemony. After all it is this throne that has helped him to become the richest politician on earth.

Tayyip Erdogan is trying hard to sell himself as a strong and mighty world leader. He makes utterly empty and vociferous statements. Currently the issue of the Al Aksa Mosque in Palestine that broke out some time ago, has become the new hot potato Erdogan has seized as an opportunity to suck the most out of it for his own personal benefits and keeps that issue persistently as a topic. Even though Israel does not pay more attention to it than to the buzz of some flies, the Turkish media promotes headlines like: "Erdogan has expressed his deep discontent against Israel" to fool the society. Nowadays there is not one state and not one politician that fears Erdogan. The world is trying furthermore to rid itself from this fascist leader. Erdogan's dreads to lose his power have gained therefore new momentum. With the money he gets from Qatar, he tries to mend the economical downfall.

Tayyip Erdogan is currently in the grip of chaos. Even though he leaves no stone unturned to get out of the tight spot, it has become clear that he will have a hard time yet ahead of him. His loyal media is stepping up its psychological warfare as much as they can offer. And it seems there are no limits and no measures of the psychological warfare left anymore. The psychological warfare has reached now an extreme, that it sparks backlashes for Erdogan himself. In their attempt to come to the aid of their master, Tayyip's affiliated press has slipped up. Therefore we can see daily new fake news of the psychological warfare that hold repercussions for Erdogan himself ready. The mask on the face of Erdogan is falling as a result of the psychological war that knows no limits.

The people do not believe those news anymore that claim the lowest possible number of killed soldiers of the Turkish state. As every person that sets eyes on the fake news published in Erdogan loyal newspapers in the framework of the psychological warfare can see through those lies. Sometimes the media boils over with such aggressions, that the psychological-war news, dossiers and writings published, exceed even the previous news reports when they used to claim to have killed a ridiculous number of guerrillas laughably. To understand the psychological warfare and fake news of the Turkish state at war times like this, it is fairly enough to glimpse at the overall news report, news videos, narratives and opinions they publish.
