Turks Confused By Media Reporting Jewish Control Of Media

“We don’t know what to think. It’s infuriating.”

HürriyetAnkara, November 3 – Consumers of Turkish news media expressed bewilderment today at allegations reported in the media that Jews control the news media, local sources reported today.

Across the Muslim world, conspiracy theories involving Jewish manipulation of finance, media, and governments have always found a willing audience, given the society’s insecurity over its perpetual lag in technology, democracy, and stability. This remains the case even in relatively advanced Turkey, where media outlets often invoke the tropes amid efforts to deflect blame from the government or to distract a restive population from domestic failures. However, the cumulative effect of such invocations now has Turks wondering whether those allegations have any credibility, since, if they are true, it would be counterproductive for the media to mention them.

“If the whole idea is to make people suspect the international Jewish cabal as the source of their troubles, it makes zero sense for the Jews to allow that suspicion to be bandied about in the media,” said Istanbul resident Addont Blivit. “But if it’s not true, then we can’t believe the media, because they keep reporting things that aren’t true. We don’t know what to think. It’s infuriating.”

To explain the paradox, some experts posit an even more nefarious mechanism for the control than what is widely assumed. “Most people believe it is simply Jewish ownership and control of news and entertainment enterprises that serves as the basis,” said commentator Mustafa Bukbern. “But that fails to explain the near-constant stream of reports about Jews controlling everything. What I think is happening is that the Jews foment distraction by allowing those stories to circulate, so that people get worked up about Jewish control of the media, and while whole populations are distracted, the Jews tighten their control over other organs of government, industry, and finance.”

“It’s backwards, but in a brilliant sort of way,” explained political analyst Fallz Phlahg. “It involves no lying, yet it’s the biggest sort of deception one can imagine. Like a high-stakes game of chess.”

The phenomenon recalls another paradox involving Jews, said Phlahg. “The more opposition to Israel increases, the more likely one is to see comparisons between Israeli leaders and Hitler,” he said. “But the same movement along the anti-Israel spectrum also increases the likelihood of seeing Hitler as a misunderstood, maligned, or innocent victim trying to do the best for his people – which undermines the analogy of Israel to Hitler. It boggles the mind.”
