The terrorist act itself is nothing, the promotion of that act is everything

A9 TV,   September 29^th, 2011

ADNAN OKTAR: The only unspoken issue that hasn’t been talked is about the organization being communist. They don’t talk about that. Their resource is again a communist/ Leninist idea. This will continue unless the invalidity of that idea is not being discussed and the man hasn’t been educated.

You can’t get a result other than this. YOU WILL ONLY PROPAGANDIZE FOR COMMUNISM. FOR INSTANCE; IT SAYS THAT THE TRAITOR TRAP KILLED THIS MANY PEOPLE. THIS IS A HUGE ACT OF THE PKK. ALL THE NEWSPAPERS HEADLINED IT. FOR 30 YEARS  EVERYDAY THE PKK WANTS TO BE IN THE NEWS. THIS IS AN ENOURMOUS KIND OF ORGANIZATIONAL PROPOGANDA. Night and day all the televisions and newspapers are referring to the PKK. Night and day. This is being discussed as the number one issue in Turkey.

THIS IS A STUPENDOUS ORGANIZATIONAL PROPAGANDA. UNWILLINGLY THEY MAKE  WIDESPREAD PROPAGANDA IN PRESS, RADIO AND TELEVISION BY NOT WANTING THE REQUIRED PROPAGANDA METHOD OF COMMUNISM AND LENINISM. THE PRIMARY NEED OF THE ORGANIZATION IS  PROPAGANDA. In order to provide courage, enthusiasm, excitement, tenacity to fight to their supporters, this news has to be published. These needs to be heard.

For instance; EVERY REPORT OF A DEATH , EVERY REPORT OF A BOMBARDMENT  GIVES A SPIRITUAL POWER AND STRENGTH TO THE PKK MEMBERS’ HEARTS. THAT WILL PROVIDE ENTHUSIASM AND WILL ENCOURAGE THEM FOR  MAKING NEW ATTACKS. BUT IF YOU PERFORM  COUNTER PROPAGANDA, THEN THE MAN LOOSES HIS OWN BELIEF.  NEITHER HIS ENHUSIASM, NOR HIS TENACITY TO FIGHT WILL BE LEFT. HE WILL BE PACIFIED. THIS WILL CONTINUE UNLESS IT IS DONE, IT WILL CONTINUE. I’m watching the television; there isn’t any other subject. Just the PKK is being discussed. Night and day. We look at the newspapers, there isn’t any issue other than the PKK . Everybody is speaking of the PKK. In this way, the propaganda that the organization needs the most is being  provided without this fact being recognized. Of course, it is being done in good faith, but unconsciously they [the media] are enormously serving  the organization. Because if the PKK doesn’t perform an act even for one day, than it will cause a deformity in them, on the PKK. That will demotivate them.  For instance, only for one day if there hasn’t been  news of a bombardment or some terrorist act then this will cause a slackness in them. Slowness. But they excitedly listen to every bit of news regarding an attack.  They have radios, pocket radios, televisions. They always talk about this subject with each other. For this reason, if  counter propaganda is being performed,  then they will  collapse inside. Whenever they hear of it, that will prick their conscience. Whenever they hear of it, they will understand that they are on the wrong path. Whenever they hear of it, they will understand that their ideology is an emptiness and they are fighting for the sake of an empty goal, and they will understand that they are killers with no purpose. And then they will give up. 

Ozay Sendil, an author at the Star newspaper stated in his article, “ Media is the best partner of a terrorist.  The terrorist act itself is nothing, the promotion of that act is everything.” and he reviewed the bomb attacks in Gaziantep accompanied with  comments from  the media that might be  supportive of   terrorism. Moreover, Turkish media prefers the “sensational” and “narrative” expressions so this considerably serves the terrorism.
