CNN Turkey has Sibel Edmonds article!

[cascadiance]

Well, kind of like Rupert Murdoch's newspaper in London Times is defying the local censorship here on Sibel Edmonds, it would appear that CNN based in Turkey is also defying their U.S. based parent in publishing an article on Sibel Edmonds on the CNN Turkish web site. Unfortunately, given that it's in Turkish, it's a little hard for us to read without translation, unlike the London Times article... It appears that Tom Casey is referenced here, as well as the London Times.

Pentagon, Sibel Edmonds'ı yalanladı

9 Şubat, 2008 15:53:00 (TSİ)


İddiaların sahibi Sibel Edmonds, 11 Eylül'ün ardından FBI'da tercümanlık yapmaya başlamıştı

ABD Dışişleri Bakanlığı, ABD'nin nükleer sırlarının, aralarında Türklerin de bulunduğu bazı casuslar tarafından, İran gibi ülkelere satıldığı yönünde, eski bir FBI çalışanının iddialarına ilişkin, İngiliz gazetesi Sunday Times'ta çıkan haberi sert bir dille yalanladı.

ABD Dışişleri Bakanlığı'nın son brifinginde bir Yunanlı gazeteci, İngiliz Sunday Times gazetesinde 6 Ocak'ta yer alan bir haberi hatırlatarak Washington'ın görüşünü sordu.

ABD Dışişleri Bakanlığı sözcüsü Tom Casey, "Haberi gördüm. Şunu söylememe izin verin, o haber tamamiyle saçma, yanlış ve temelsizdir" dedi.

Casey, İngiltere'nin böyle saygın gazetelerinden birinin, "tamamen çöpe ait" bir haberi yayınlamasının "utanılacak bir durum" olduğunu belirterek, "Haberin hiçbir geçerliliği yok, doğru değil" diye konuştu.

Tried this online translator and one other, but it doesn't seem to help really that much:

Kill the Messenger
Out of love for her newly-adopted country, Sibel Edmonds, an American woman of Turkish origin agreed to join the FBI after the 9/11 attacks, as a language specialist with top-security clearance. Her job was to translate counter-intelligence wiretaps related to corrupt US officials and foreign spies.

Only a few months into the job, one of her colleagues paid her a troubling visit at home, offering Sibel to become an agent for the count of foreign powers! She notified her superiors but to her surprise she was immediately fired from the FBI; the beginning of the nightmare for the translator who already knew too much. She was now a whistleblower!

Ever since, she has been fighting the most reckless and powerful officials in the US government. Due to "State Secret Privilege", Sibel has lost her freedom of speech, hence the capacity to expose the illegal activities she discovered. If Sibel speaks up, she'll go to jail. But when they took her on, they made the wrong woman mad.

Discover the riveting story of an unbelievably courageous US citizen that has been legally forbidden to blow the whistle on national security concerns. This is the riveting story of an inconvenient patriot, a proud citizen in a truth-seeking America.
