Israeli "Mossad" Justifies Them

While the USA and EU are demanding from Turkey to stop the actions
against PPK and withdraw their military forces from the northern Iraq,
the searches of Azerbaijan aimed to finding Armenian provocations
resulted in "revealing" the PPK camps in Armenia and NKR. The Israeli
"Mossad" justified the necessity of such searches.

According to Baku, Armenia supports and gives shelter to PPK members
who settle down in the regions of the country, in NKr and in the
neighboring liberated territories. The Turksih-Azeri mass media began
spreading such rumors in the end of the last year, when Turkey was to
unfold military actions against the PPK headquarters in Northern Iraq.

In mid February, when the actions began, the Turkish newspapers began
contributing to spreading of this misinformation. In particular,
"Huriet" and "Jumhuriet" published an article entitled "PPK Dislocated
in Karabakh," while Gyunesh" warned Azerbaijan against the dislocation
of PPK in NKR.

It’s worth mentioning that the Turkish printed press refers to various
Israeli sources cited by the Azeri mass media or the press speaker of
the Azeri Foreign Ministry when spreading rumors about the dislocation
of PPK forces in Armenia.

In particular, according to "Huriet" the PPK terrorist managed to
move to Armenia in civil clothes accompanies by their families and
settled down in Goris, Masis and Gugarq, as well as in Fizuli and
Lachin. According to Baku based "Musafat," the Israeli "Mossad"
secret service submitted a special package of relevant documents
on the case Ankara and Baku. The Israeli "Jerusalem Post" stated
that the Armenian special services are supporting the PPK terrorists
while the businessmen with Kurdish origin provide them with financial
assistance. "Debka File" site stated that Armenia granted citizenship
to the PPK terrorists.

In their February 18 issues, "Huriet," "Jumhuriet," and "Gyunesh" cited
"Musafat" and informed about the "Mossad" documents and that 50 PPK
terrorists settled down in Lachin. The Turksih Public TV discovered
a new PPK dwelling place in Kelbajar, referring to press speaker of
the Azeri FM.

The efforts of Azeris and Turks to find PPK terrorist are no new
game they play. They began it in 1998, saying that Abdullah Ojalan
is in Armenia. Such efforts of Azerbaijan and Turkey are aimed to
prove Armenia a country that supports terrorism and that there are
PPK camps in our country. This is a mere psychological trick that
they hope will scare the people of Armenia and will give a reason to
Turkish armed forces to attack the PPK camps in Armenia and NKR.

In response, we want to remind that already in 1990-ies PPK settled
down in Azerbaijan and Nakhijevan. Arifoghli, editor-in-chief of
"Musafat", stated in 2003 that PPK has a large network of activists
in Azerbaijan and enjoys the support of the Azeri authorities. He
touched upon this issue in "PPK Takes New Roots in Azerbaijan"
article published in "Zerkalo’ in 2003.
