The raids on Roj TV in Brussels has shocked, saddened and angered millions of people and exposed the lack of democracy in the European countries.
How could this happen in the political centre of Europe?
How could masked Turkish Intelligence operatives be helped by Belgium police to raid Roj TV's offices and smash the computers linked to the transmitters shutting off the uplink to the satellite?
Well, yesterdays vote in the US calling the Armenian Genocide what it is.......a Genocide could be a clue.
Arms companies in the US were warning before the vote that billions of dollars worth of arms contracts could go to Europe if the resolution was passed. (Turkey's Foreign Minister estimates the contracts are worth $7billion)
Europe anticipating this vote has moved against Roj TV in the hope that Turkey will withdraw its support of the F35 Fighter Jet project which it in partnership with US arms companies to produce the next generation of fighter jets.
Europe has the same project and has been lobbying Turkey hard to join its project. The contract is worth billions of Euros.
It will be interesting to watch how this now develops and if Turkey does sign up to Europe's consortium.
HUMAN RIGHTS BEFORE THE RIGHTS OF ARMS COMPANIES SHAREHOLDERS!!!!!
