The leader of the Nationalist Movement Party (MHP), Devlet Bahçeli, spoke about the meeting held by the delegation that went to İmralı with the terrorist leader Öcalan. Bahçeli stated, "The messages from the founding leadership of the PKK are reasonable, positive, credible, and definitive. There is no meaning or significance in making intentional statements to the public that contradict this message, distorting the process, and muddying the clear water."
MHP Chairman Devlet Bahçeli stated, "The messages of the founding leadership of the PKK are reasonable, positive, credible, and definitive. There is no meaning or importance in making intentional statements to the public contrary to this message, distorting the process, and muddying the clear water."
A '22nd Term Certificate Ceremony' of the 'Politics and Leadership School' was held in the MHP. In addition to MHP Chairman Devlet Bahçeli, the ceremony was attended by deputy chairpersons, members of parliament, and many party members. Bahçeli mentioned that the brand value of the Politics and Leadership School has increased and that they have reached 780 students in 16 years.
Expressing that the theme of the 22nd term has been determined as 'Mind-Morality-Justice', Bahçeli said, "The essential values in our political thought and struggle are undoubtedly formed on the tripod of mind, morality, and justice. We do not expect those who take refuge in template memorization with their dull minds, instead of using their intellects, to even acknowledge, congratulate, understand, or recognize our rights. Although the dust cloud caused by those who remain silent when they should speak and those who speak when they should be silent may reduce the perspective of politics, we are progressing step by step towards our sacred goals with our heart's eye at times, with the power of thought at other times, and always with our walk filled with reason and faith," he stated.
BAHÇELİ: IS THE İBB THEFT NOT AN ETHICAL CRISIS?
Regarding the betting operation, Bahçeli said: "Isn't the ethical crisis caused by those who cast a shadow over Turkish football, and even Turkish sports, with betting allegations, those who defraud our nation's hard-earned money in the capital markets, and those who aim to earn more from where they lie than where they rise, a topic that we all need to ponder? The increasing violent incidents that tear apart the social fabric, where people stab each other over trivial reasons, is it not an ethical crisis?
Isn't it an ethical crisis to make our people the victims of dishonor by relying on lies, deceit, and slander, to block political dialogues, and to try to cover up the truth with cheap poses of honor? Are the widespread and intense allegations of bribery, corruption, and misconduct that plague municipalities not a significant ethical crisis? The theft of the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality, which we define as 'the corruption of the century', is it not an ethical crisis that has embedded itself in the national memory like a nail, piercing like a knife, with illegitimate and illegal relationships spreading everywhere?
Isn't attacking the judiciary with slander when justice is about to intervene, and attempting to discredit our judicial members, both an ethical and a justice crisis? The fear instilled by new generation gangs, the deployment of child-age hitmen, the astonishing drop in the age of drug use, the disintegration of families, and the extinguishing of hopes, is it not an ethical crisis? Stealing gold and silver entrusted to the Büyükçekmece Courthouse and fleeing abroad, betraying trust at every level and degree, is it not an ethical crisis?"
"WE ARE ON THE THRESHOLD OF BEING THE ADDRESSEE OF DAZZLING DEVELOPMENTS"
Bahçeli noted that the goal of a 'Terror-Free Turkey' is focused on strengthening national unity and brotherhood, and continued: "Despite some provocative statements, Zionist-imperialist pressures and suggestions, absurd expressions, and arrogant and controlled discourses based on reviving the environment of provocation, we are gradually moving towards the result step by step. We are on the threshold of being the addressee of dazzling developments, we are on the edge. Without getting caught in the whirlpool of systematic and violent gossip, without losing our grip, we are progressing on our path, stepping on traces of courage and honor. We read the goal of a 'Terror-Free Turkey' with the light of reason, morality, and justice, and we see no other option but to be united as one heart against global and regional threats.
"THE MESSAGES OF THE FOUNDING LEADERSHIP OF THE PKK ARE REASONABLE"
The 19th meeting of the National Solidarity, Brotherhood, and Democracy Commission was also held on December 4, during which the statements made by the parliamentary delegation going to İmralı were discussed. The messages of the founding leadership of the PKK are reasonable, positive, credible, and definitive. There is no meaning or importance in making intentional statements to the public contrary to this message, distorting the process, and muddying the clear water."
"THE CIZRE PROVOCATION WILL NOT DISCOURAGE US"
Emphasizing that Turkey has implemented a fair, moral, and reason-based peace architecture, in contrast to the regions of conflict and tension, Bahçeli continued: "Whoever attempts to obstruct this will bear a burden in both worlds that they cannot bear. The Cizre provocation and some irresponsible and flawed statements made from Kandil will not discourage us. The determination of whether we have reached guidance will not be known by a mortal, but by Allah, who will also give the eternal judgment regarding us with His justice and grace. As for my being a Bozkurt, I am certainly a Bozkurt, and as long as life allows, I will remain a Bozkurt, and I will depart in that manner."
"EVERYONE WILL SEE THE FLIGHT OF THE PEACE DOVE"
Inshallah, the second wing of the peace dove will be fixed, and everyone will see its flight. There are many thinkers who define politics as a field of competition and conflict, as well as those who define it in terms of cooperation and solidarity. We are in favor of cooperation. We are on the side of ensuring and rewarding solidarity. We should be busy not with finding each other's flaws, but with closing them, through conversation, agreement, empathy, patience, and common sense. We have spiritual reins that will restrain our passions. Tolerance is a democratic value that allows understanding others and solving problems through dialogue. We cannot afford to miss the historic opportunity we have captured in the last century; we cannot waste it. We turn our backs on utopian views, absurd, disproportionate, and shallow words.
"WE ARE CLOSING OUR EARS UNTIL THE LAST MOMENT"
We are closing our ears until the last moment. And most importantly, we embrace all our Kurdish brothers with longing, affection, and respect. Do not forget that those who see Turkey's future as dark will be forgotten in the pitch-black corners of our history. We aim to weave a meaning, a lasting unity, and mutual moral responsibility from the fine threads of our brotherhood that is sought to be fragmented. Our current age is one where the creaking of machines silences the moral echo of the digital revolution.
Our common morality is the ethics of love, reason, and justice that combines the principles of respect, service, and compassion. Isn't it time to gather around this morality? Isn't it time to melt together in the crucible of this morality? As stated by the founding leadership of the PKK, isn't it necessary to abandon not only the physical weapons but also the mental weapons?
