Ergenekon: The Turkish Gladio?
Ergenekon: The Turkish Gladio?

Summary/Abstract: Several assassinations that took place in Turkey have always raised suspicions and skepticism even when their murderers were found. This “period of skepticism” begins as early as the 1970s continues through the 1990s and 2000s. The commonly known assassins Mehmet Ali Agca, Mahmut Yıldırım (also known as "Yesil" meaning: green) and Alparslan Aslan have a common symbolic meaning for this period. These symbols can be summarized as terrorizing the citizens in the country creating chaos and shift Turkey from a democracy to an authoritarian rule by using fear tactics. Everyone in Turkey wonders whether these assassinations had more meaning leading everyone to think more about the “deep state” (derin devlet), gangs, and counter terrorism organizations. What are even more mysterious are the unresolved assassinations. Most of these people were executed with remote controlled bombs, special assassination guns or plastic bombs.
