January 3rd, 2016.
The Istanbul Nightclub Massacre.
The story is that a lone gunman entered the Reina nightclub in the upscale Ortaköy neighbourhood of Istanbul at around 1.45am on January the 1st and murdered at least 39, wounding a further 69 of the nightclub patrons before changing from the black attire he was wearing when he arrived into an all white outfit and evading all the Turkish security forces making a clean escape from the scene.
Among the victims were at least 15 foreigners from mainly Western and Middle Eastern nations.
2017 Istanbul nightclub attack
There is video of the beginning of the event where a man can be seen to open fire randomly on a number of targets in the street before making his way into the club. The man is dressed in black and wielding an AK47 rifle.

The gunshots cause many sparks to fly from the objects they strike in a manner that is eerily reminiscent of the Dallas “spark hits” episode, although less conclusive because in that case the spark hits were accompanied by a police officer doing a really bad job of pretending to have been shot. On the other hand the people on the street in Istanbul appear to be reacting in a genuine way to the attack.
ISIS Claim responsibility?
The identity of the gunman is not known and although someone purporting to represent ISIS has claimed responsibility, the claim of responsibility made reference to a gun and grenade attack but none of the survivors make any mention of any explosives of any kind and that combined with the fact that anyone can claim to be ISIS and claim responsibility for anything via social media, this cannot be accepted at face value.
After the November 13th Black Friday “attacks” in Paris a similarly inaccurate claim of responsibility was made, in that case the ISIS letter referred to attacks in parts of Paris where no attack took place.
It seems quite amazing that someone could perpetrate a massacre on that scale in the middle of a massive city with a reported 17,000 police on the streets and make a clean getaway by changing into different clothes.
The whole story sounds unbelievable and when you watch the interviews with some of the survivors and supposed victims it becomes very hard to sustain belief in the authenticity of this event.
Jacob Raak is the American CEO of a company named TECH Manufacturing, Corp. a seemingly small specialist tech firm based in Pennsylvania. In the following video Jacob Raak gives an amazing performance that must be seen to be believed.
Turkey Injured eyewitness saw one gunman in Istanbul club shooting.mp4
The gunman seen entering the club on CCTV is wielding an AK47 assault rifle, the diameter of the rounds is 7.62 millimeters by 39, the bullet leaves the weapon at a speed of 715 metres a second so it is more than a little odd to see Jacob Raak with a thin ribbon of material around his thigh covering what could only be a minuscule wound and no sign of any blood whatsoever.
Presumably the story will be fixed in the coming days we will be told that Jacob Raak was hit by a ricochet rather than an actual bullet or something like that but when Jacob Raak left hospital on the way to the airport to fly home, only one day after the event, there was no sign at all that he had been shot at all, it was clear that his leg bore no bandages or other signs of medical treatment or injury.
It was interesting to note that in the story they ran about Jacob Raak the Mail Online cropped out all imagery of the “wound” and the slim ” bandage” – an approach that is completely contrary to the base and exploitative approach the Mail Online routinely takes.
The Jacob Raak story got even better in the Mail Online with a throwback to the Paris attack of November 2015, the divine intervention of the mobile phone again saving the life of the “terror victim”.
Other Witnesses and Survivors.
Other eyewitnesses are also deeply unconvincing in the general tenor of their comments.
This al Jazeera video features a female witness Sinem Uyanik who in a less obvious way is as unconvincing as Mr.Raak in her description of events.
“Before I could understand what was happening, my husband fell on top of me,” said Sinem Uyanik, who follows inexplicably with “I had to lift several bodies from on top of me before I could get out,” (Source) Her husband was only lightly wounded so she is not referring to him. The story does not make sense.
Dozens killed in Istanbul nightclub shooting
Fake Terror is a proven fact in the Middle East.
Almost all of the violence and terror in the Middle East is authentic but we know for a fact that some events are staged. Several months ago a video of a clearly staged and fake bombing in Iraq was released, a real explosion takes place in an empty street and after the blast fake victims congregate for the cameras and play their role.
Something Strange Happened After a “Car Bombing”
This event was reported as a real attack around the world but it was not.
The presence of fake victims around an event strongly implies that the event was not authentic because if there were real victims from a real tragedy there would be no need for them.
So while, given the scale of the attack, the wide variety of victims nationalities and the near universal credulity with which the story was greeted make it seem ludicrous at face value to suggest this attack was a work of fiction, a non-event, the weight of currently available evidence points overwhelmingly in that direction.
In many ways it scarcely matters, the more important question is who is behind these events? Who benefits and what are they hoping to achieve?
The militant groups against whom these crimes are attributed gain absolutely nothing. They make their destruction imperative.
Turkey and it’s leader have recently crossed the West, their decision to participate in a Syrian peace process that included Russia and Iran and excluded the US will be seen as an unfriendly act in the US and give the US a motive to destabilise Turkey.
But given that the Istanbul police are handling this case it is hard to imagine any outsiders exerting sufficient influence over the police to pull this event off. It is possible but seems highly unlikely.
On the other hand the high number of foreign victims also seemingly makes it impossible for this deception to have been concocted locally.
Many credible analysts stated that the slaying of the Russian Ambassador in Ankara was a fraud, my understanding is that the assassination was a staged event but the killing of Andrei Karlov was real and perhaps this event will ultimately also turn out to have been authentic and there are signs of authenticity such as what seems to be a corpse laying in the Istanbul street and the start of the attack also appears somewhat authentic, possible spark hits aside.
Conclusion.
However the tentative conclusion remains that this event was fiction and the authors were most likely elements within the Turkish state.
The broader implication of this hypothesis is that these synthetic events are simply the next level news management technique adopted by governments across the world in order to exert psychological control over the populace, promote heightened security measures and give governments almost unlimited power whilst the people the leadership wants to be perceived as enemies are seen that way by a terrified, compliant population without having to deal with grieving families demanding the truth and causing years of “trouble” for the perpetrators in the aftermath.
Crimes of Empire 
All bullshit including the Ambassador. Feel sorry for that Jacob Raak guy when he gets home. Oof.

‘Tentative… conclusion’. One thing this has alerted are the levels of tentative. The numbers and internet-based question, about the authenticity of another domestic incident, are clearly diminishing. This said, ones who admit about the more-obvious previous, are geared up to suspect this one. How, not? Details blurred by designed disclosure. Seconds more footage, a handful more of victims/loved ones and critically; a proportional response to a crime scene – would allay doubts. But no. So what’s doin’? Your balanced assessment is likely the only one out there; one that posits multiple acting and lies, with pause to consider the what-if and claimed 500 witnesses and to 110 physical casualties. And therefore thousands more directly touched. Other public outlets, low attention to mainstream/alternative, will see and consider oddities but not want to believe facts over hope (?) otherwise. Judge too controversial and not worth the flack. Not with sufficient doubt and no-doubters. One set of mourners is enough. The awaking journey, ever-teaches us to accept evidence, over perception c/o people. But it’s difficult. While I put in a comment on your ‘New Year’ post, I reacted negatively to accusations questioning and “911 research, a betrayal of victims families etc”. Yet, there’s some possible qualm, when it’s so close and yet more to unfold as in this latest. But why if the killer/s did what’s reported, who/how and make it so difficult to accept? Go with: It happened – then why the wind-up? There’s one clip showing a bloodied mouthed female, looking dead inside, behind this a strange few seconds of said-gunman directing one or two others. Perhaps this sums up the dilemma; recognisable looking tragedy and horror yet in the background strange scenes. In m’ears Alex is blaring urgency. Like never before. Feel for him, us – and the need for this underlying war erupting and enemies face all the info-sharing, pressure and – God willing/us-going – pushed back. It seems so irrelevant terrorising a nightclub in gaining anything but counter action against this form of Islamism. As you ask; if at all, who gets what? As for ISIS – like you say, why? And even ‘terrifying the compliant’ – does it? Anymore than generally freaked and enormous ability for normalcy bias. My own lacking confirming/explaining theory – false flag or fake – is the religious component. Those driven by fury (because their time is short). Some kind of subliminal come otherworldly messaging. Other possibility, is the authorities blackmailed, to go along. Better somehow ‘this’ than the punishment and resistance. Still, who/why? Perhaps, senseless confusion and driven patsy/s by so-lost psychos who themselves, barely know which way’s up?
Where I’m clear as: This is evil forces with personality against God and his witness, purposes and peoples’ loved on earth. Your article is right to write. Not ‘whitewash covering a flimsy wall’. God warns against the easy prophesying ‘peace, peace’ and not deeper discernment of the deceptions. Someone ought-er. Thanks for standing.

Many thanks for that Mark. Confirmation bias is very hard to avoid with these incidents and some of the people on YouTube have a chronic case, it is pretty understandable as no matter how well an event is proven to be a fraud (Sandy Hook is a classic example-hard proven) but people still regard anyone who says so as a lunatic.
You have asked some very profound and important question here:
“My own lacking confirming/explaining theory – false flag or fake – is the religious component. Those driven by fury (because their time is short). Some kind of subliminal come otherworldly messaging. Other possibility, is the authorities blackmailed, to go along. Better somehow ‘this’ than the punishment and resistance. Still, who/why? Perhaps, senseless confusion and driven patsy/s by so-lost psychos who themselves, barely know which way’s up?” It is a very tough subject and your conjecture comes as close as any other explanation for it that I have seen.
Another great ending, I really hope this material is aired somewhere more deserving than the comments section here.

I think you have hit the nail on the head, what does the great deceiver practice? He practices great deception. Many thanks for that comment.

Thanks very much for those thoughts and links truth1. Unfortunately when I tried to visit the Memphis Daily News link I got a bizarre message that I have never seen before stating that “You are not authorized to view this page.” Could be the adblocker, certain sites mess with you when that is detected. Tried again with same result unfortunately the Memphis Daily News still won’t let me visit their site and the Wayback machine has not made a copy of that page.

I think the assassination of the Russian ambassador was fake, and I think the motive might have been to make Russia more sympathetic in the eyes of the Turkish population. Turkey, Iran, and Russia are now co-operating, as I think you mentioned, and perhaps a psyop such as a fake assassination of a Russian was needed to undo old propaganda against Russia.
This Istanbul attack looks fishy, and I agree that Raatz’s story is ridiculous. I did see footage of other victims that looked more convincing. Who knows what the truth is when you’re dealing with agencies whose job it is to spread confusion? It’s not totally implausible that they might make a real event look fake. But at the moment, I too assume it’s all fake.
I think various Governments and political factions are analogous to underworld gangs who cooperate with each other on some levels and compete on others, so whatever the truth is, it’ll be quite complex. I think they must have some kind of mutual understanding not to call out each others’ false flags and hoaxes. I think the greater public are probably seen as pawns in a great game.

Thanks for that Malcolm, you hit upon something very important there “I think various Governments and political factions are analogous to underworld gangs who cooperate with each other on some levels and compete on others, so whatever the truth is, it’ll be quite complex.

I think the greater public are probably seen as pawns in a great game” They must at some level be collaborating with their supposed “adversaries” against the people because otherwise world leaders other than Ahmadinejad would have mentioned that 911 was a false flag attack. The fear of exposure of their own similar crimes like the apartment bombings in Russia around 1999 cannot account for this alone. Thanks for commenting.
