Former FBI translator Sibel Edmonds elaborates on the Turkish branch of NATO/CIA’s “stay behind armies” code named Gladio. This little known history should be lesson number one on how the world actually works. Operation Gladio in Europe was exposed by the Prime Minister of Italy for blowing up civilians, murdering them, in order to blame on communist cells, those “Red Factions.”
Sibel contends that the European operations of Gladio were shut down after Italian Prime Minister Giulio Andreotti ‘s public exposure in October of 1990, but that Gladio in Turkey continued. It continues to this day in Turkey and is aimed outward at the surrounding nations. Note Syria, which was invaded by foreign Islamists hosted right on Turkey’s territory. This relates to the wars in Kosovo, Bosnia and Chechnya too. Anyone familiar with the latest Boston bombing case knows the name Chechnya.
