Turkey: Anti-terrorism: Roj TV, kicked out of UK & France, now supports Kurdish Turk terrorist org PKK from Denmark

.
Turkey is blowing the whistle on self-righteous Denmark, which has provided itself as a terrorist base for Roj TV which organized the recent PKK-riots among the large population of Tukey's Kurds in the South Anatolia region, according to Turkish Weekly's reporter, Melahat Tuzcu ("Denmark-based Roj TV organized the riots," Apr1,2k6).

ANKARA - Turkey argues that the PKK-backed Roj TV organised the violent riots in south-eastern Turkey. Turkish Foreign Ministry spokesman Namık Tan underlined last week that the Turkish government expected Danish authorities to finalize an ongoing legal process over Ankara's demand for the closure of Roj TV, which Ankara believes has links to the PKK. Some of the staff of the Roj TV are PKK members.

“Evidence showing that Roj TV broadcasts have been motivating, encouraging and directing PKK terror activities have been conveyed to the appropriate offices of the relevant countries, primarily Denmark, all along,” Tan said at a weekly press conference when reminded of reports indicating that Roj TV had provoked recent demonstrations in predominantly Kurdish-populated southeastern Anatolia.

The previous PKK-backed tv stations were closed by the UK and France. However Denmark has resisted to close the station, arguing that such a decision would be againts freedom of press. However Turkey accuses Denmark of supporting terrorism. The PKK is a terrorist organisation according to the UK, EU and US laws. Dr. Nilgun Gulcan is one of those who do not find Denmark sincere in combatting terrorism:

[Speaking ironically, Gulcan said,] "I think Turkey should allow Usama Bin Laden to establish a terrorist TV station in Ankara and the Al Qaeda militants should be allowed to make violance[-promoting] propaganda against Denmark. I can see no difference between the Roj TV case and [an] imaginary Bin Laden TV [station]. [The] Danish Government is not sincere in combatting terrorism [just] as they were not sincere in the cartoon crisis".

Denmark's absolutization of the Enlightenment's limitless version of free speech, elevating it to the level of the prime absolute of "freedom" is full of glaring internal contradictions, and is unworthy of the support of all all those North American Christians who mindlessly supported the government, Prime Miminister and Free-Marketeer party of political secularism that is presently in power in Denmark's nominally Lutheran society.

By and large, Danish Christians don't have the philosophical acumen to criticise the free-expression ideology that criminalizes anti-Jewish discourse but allows core values of Danish Muslims to be held in public contempt with utter impunity (some equality, where some are more equal than others), that allows a free flow of Denmark-made childporn and does not prosecute child-sex tourism by Danes abroad but needlessly stands-by when Muslims are purposefully provoked in regard to their religion, without public rebuke or proesecution by the authorities who have the legal means to do so. Now, we see the PKK terrorists given a free hand to broadcast, not Denmark's past specialties of child-porn and its world childsex tourism industry, but not permits violent instigation of riots and violence. Perhaps Denmark will find a way to make large profits on TV stations of all the world's terrorist groups. "Buy Danish" –you can't be serious?

And the so-called "Conservatives" (the Free-Market political atheists) of Anders Fogh Rasmussen's government do nothing to stop the travesty, not even merely to use their own free speech to say a word of rebuke to the violators, just as they did nothing to rebuke Jyllands-Posten for its spread of religious hatred against Muslims. In this day and age, it's important to stand against both Islamofascism and support our Muslim neighbours, to stand against PKK terrorism and support the Kurdish ethnic-minority in Turkey which needs Kurdish-language schools. We Christians must support a broad tolerance among religions – including Muslims, Jews, and Christians. Christians must stand up in the political arenas of Denmark, Turkey, Canada, USA, and UK to present a much-more-nuanced Christian political philosophy of free speech than what presently obtains in any of these societies. - Politicarp
