Turkey To Take Over Egypt.
Its a incoherent and difficult to believe story but therefore an al Ahram staple.
29 Arrests have been ordered (no names given as is always the case in Egypt) of persons who were apparently planning a Turkey takeover in co-operation with the Security Service of the Government of Turkey. Really. Apparently its a Turkey/Brotherhood thing.
Reflecting the low IQ of the major who ‘wrote up’ this story it contains allegations of phone calls to many Egyptians to get public opinion, money laundering and little else.
The specific things they are accused of don’t include bombs and guns.
Seems to me that they were useless at their ‘job’ or on another job. What idiot just changes money and makes phone calls to bring down a government. I pity the scapegoats who might be rounded up to make this story look edible - maybe they will use film extras instead.
Al Ahram says that it is quoting the Government of Turkey owned news agency MENA on this matter.
No such story appears on MENA.

I think that when they are writing up such big stories they should find an Egyptian with a good talent for fiction – particularly plot and consistency. I imagine the jails are full of them.
Stories like this have effects which favor the obvious candidate. An alternative view is that its mayhem and bedlam in the big house at the moment.
In the same edition they run a story about how Egyptian-Turk relations can enter a new golden era. http://english.ahram.org.eg/NewsContent ... ween-.aspx so when the new released fiction writer does his job he needs to plan carefully in which edition the positive and negative earthquake exposes will be placed. Timing is everything and always stick to a standard plot.
MENA is an excellent agency for news on Egypt, in fact better than the locals. Its pretty balanced, very detailed but you have to log in and give them information some might not want to do. An example of their detail is the story that the President is in Luxor today proclaiming the industrial and commercial revolution he has created. Al Ahram has no such story.
MENA is widely used whereas the Egyptian State Information Service is ignored.
Turkey doesn’t care – it has new diplomatic and large commercial deals with Sudan and Ethiopia. I’m not aware that the rich Turks have made any significant, or even insignificant, investments in Egypt in the last 8 years. Turkey's interests are to stay away. At no stage in the past few generations has Turkey had any interest in controlling Egypt. Why would Turkey want control of something that can't control itself and isn't worth much. As a prosperous country, a member of NATO, with strong but fragile relations with Europe and USA and with no commercial interests in conflict with Egypt this al Ahram story is worse than absurd. Turkey has no motive or need for such a plan. However it does like sticking it to Sisi - but that's a somewhat personal issue.
