VIDEO: New Evidence Shows Turkey Reportedly Supplied NATO Grade Weapons To Terrorists After Indictment Report By Egyptian TV
A new video evidence showcasing terrorists wielding sophisticated NATO grade weapon has emerged after an Egyptian TV indicted Turkey of aiding Boko Haram insurgency in Nigeria.
Ten.tv had recently reports Turkey is supplying weapons to Boko Haram in Nigeria with TV host Nasha’t al-Deyhi reporting a leak confirming an intercepted phone call from a few years back – confirming the action.
He reported in part: “Today’s leak confirms without a doubt that Erdogan, his state, his government, and his party are transferring weapons from Turkey to – this is a shock, to where you may ask – to Nigeria; and to whom? – to the Boko Haram organization.”
Corroborating the report, a Shillman Fellow in Journalism at the David Horowitz Freedom Center and an expert on the Middle East and Islam, Raymond Ibrahim said he was not surprised by the Ten.tv report.
“The tape was made in 2014 or 15 and it was reported widely in certain areas, in the US and the west not so much and not much came out of it,” Ibrahim said. “The reason I think is that (Turkish President Recep Tayyip) Erdogan didn’t have his fingers so much in Islamist politics outside of his own nation.”
“But now that we’ve seen Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the ISIS Islamic state caliph that was killed recently, and he was found just three miles from the Turkish border, which is, in fact, the last bastion of jihadi-so-called ‘freedom fighters’ attacking the Syrian government,” he told CBN News.
“It has brought it up again, he (Erdogan) is supporting ISIS,” Ibrahim noted. “Now we’re remembering and that was I think the point of the Egyptian show, we’re bringing back to see that there’s some continuity here. He’s involved with some of the worst Islamic terror groups. If you remember, Boko Haram, whose name loosely means ‘western education is forbidden’, (Haram) was basically doing what ISIS was doing and is notorious for – years before ISIS was doing it.
While the dust is yet to settle amid the accusations with different reactions already trailing the report, a new video has emerged showing the sophisticated weapons terrorists wield, wit analyst describing the ammunitions as NATO standard weapons.
