\"\"This is no longer criticism, but outright political dishonesty.
\nAll those who target K\u0131l\u0131\u00e7daro\u011flu and shout \u201cthe alliance was a subcontractor, a trap for the Republic\u201d are knowingly lying. Because the truth is obvious:
\n\u00d6zg\u00fcr \u00d6zel was the one who defended that alliance.
\nThe commissions that made the lists included the entire CHP leadership of today.
\nSo everyone who is shouting today was a signatory yesterday.
\nDo you know what that means?
\nThis is not a discussion of political failure, but a collective exoneration operation by placing the blame on one person.
\nThis is not self-criticism in politics, it is spinelessness.
\nLet's write more clearly:
\nThey themselves approved the names they call \u201csubcontractors\u201d today.
\nToday, they applauded from the rostrum as long as they said \u201cambush on the Republic\u201d.
\nThe decisions they are shouting \u201ctreason\u201d about today have the imprint of their hands, the ink of their fingers.
\nImamo\u011flu and Mansur Yava\u015f were not on the sidelines of this process.
\nBoth were at the center of the Vice Presidential formula in 2023.
\nSo the tale of \u201cthey did not run\u201d is incomplete; they did not run because they were on the table for another executive office.
\nIf ignoring this process is not ignorance, it is conscious denial.
\nEngin \u00d6zko\u00e7 and Muharrem Erkek did not become candidates by chance.
\nThey deliberately did not enter the parliamentary lists.
\nThe reason was no secret: If the election was won, they would become ministers.
\nIf they had won, they would have been in the executive, but when they lost, they took the \u201cwe were not there\u201d pose.
\nThis is not a principle in politics, but a calculus of interests.
\nWhat is being done now?
\nMemory is being reset, voters are being fooled,
\n\u201cWe didn't exist, he did it.\u201d.
\nThis is not politics, but the crime of distorting history.
\nLet's be clear about this:
\nThis discourse does not only lynch K\u0131l\u0131\u00e7daro\u011flu;
\nIt disgraces the CHP institutionally.
\nFor the first time, he makes the party ashamed of its past.
\nAnd here's the dirty part:
\nThis language uses Atat\u00fcrk as a shield to hide personal cowardice.
\n\u201cLegitimizing the lie by saying \u201dAtat\u00fcrk and the Republic\",
\nIt is not loyalty to the Republic, it is abuse of the Republic.
\nLet's deliver the final blow, so there's no escape:
\nIf that alliance is a disaster,
\n- you are all part of the disaster.
\nIf those lists are treason,
\n- you all have fingerprints.
\nBut no, if you say \u201cit was right\u201d that day,
\nwhat you've done today is a despicable escape.
\nThat is why the issue is no longer about K\u0131l\u0131\u00e7daro\u011flu.
\nThe point is this:
\nThe current CHP leadership is trying to survive by lying to its own past.
\nThis is not a political debate.
\nThis is a story of character abandonment for a seat.
\nAnd history will not forgive this:
\nNot the one who defends his mistake,
\na liar who denies his mistake.<\/p>\n

There has been a systematic, conscious and organized distortion in Turkish politics for some time now. A single name is placed at the center of every crisis, every rupture, every political transition, every organizational problem: Kemal K\u0131l\u0131\u00e7daro\u011flu.
\nThis is no longer criticism. This is political engineering.
\nThis is the operation of those who do not want to distribute responsibility, but to centralize and whitewash it.
\nLet's say this up front and clearly:
\nHistory is not written by lynching.
\nPolitics is not built on distortion.
\nMorality does not bend and twist according to the individual.
\nAnd yes: this article is a direct challenge to this distortion.<\/p>\n

I. MERSIN FILE: TIME TO FACE THE FACTS<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ali Mahir Basarir comes out and says:
\n\u201cWe begged Mr. Kemal not to nominate Hasan Ufuk \u00c7ak\u0131r. There were long discussions in the MYK and PM, but we couldn't prevent it.\u201d
\nThese sentences are all political manipulation.
\nPM witnesses are clear:
\nThere was no discussion.
\nThe testimony of FMC witness Faik \u00d6ztrak is clear:
\n\u201cHikmet \u00c7etin had a reference, he became a candidate without objection.\u201d
\nIn other words, there is not an \u201cimposition\u201d but a collective and unchallenged process.
\nThose who are trying to pin the responsibility on K\u0131l\u0131\u00e7daro\u011flu today are hiding their own signatures and silence.<\/p>\n

II. THE NOMINATION MECHANISM: NUMBERS NOT PEOPLE<\/strong><\/p>\n

In 2018, CHP won 3 deputies from Mersin.
\nIn 2023, this number increased to 5.
\nThe list is open:
\nAli Mahir Basarir
\nGulcan K\u0131\u015f
\nAlliance candidate Mehmet Emin Ekmen
\nTalat Din\u00e7er
\nHasan Ufuk Cakir
\nIt is not one person who determines this list.
\nVahap Se\u00e7er.
\nEngin \u00d6zko\u00e7.
\nThere is a nomination commission.
\nThere is a regional balance calculation.
\nAnd the most critical fact is this:
\nIn the Millet Alliance, the CHP made a deal on NUMBERS, not names.
\nEach party decided within itself who would be a deputy.
\nThe CHP did not identify any of the deputies who switched to the AKP.
\nThose who knew this and kept silent cannot lecture on morality today.
\nTrying to drop a candidate with documents served hours before the YSK is not politics, it is intrigue and blackmail.<\/p>\n

III. THOSE WHO PASS, THOSE WHO STAY, THOSE WHO ARE SILENT: MORALITY IS NOT SELECTIVE<\/strong><\/p>\n

Question:
\n- Who was the wedding witness in prison?
\n- Why was there silence when Adnan Beker voted for Erdo\u011fan?
\n- Why was Cemal Enginyurt cherished when he insulted \u00d6zg\u00fcr \u00d6zel?
\n- Who was held accountable when Beykoz and Gaziosmanpa\u015fa went to AKP?
\nThe answer is clear:
\nIt is not a matter of principle.
\nIt is a matter of interest and faction.
\nThose who come to the CHP are declared \u201cheroes\u201d and those who go to the AKP are declared \u201ctraitors\u201d.
\nThis is not morality; it is opportunism.
\nIf you are principled, then be clear:
\nDo not accept those who want to switch to CHP.
\nMorality does not change according to its direction.
\nAdditional Explanation: In the March 31, 2024 local elections, mayors who were nominated as candidates by \u00d6zg\u00fcr \u00d6zel, Ekrem \u0130mamo\u011flu, Ali Mahir Ba\u015far\u0131r, Veli A\u011fbaba, G\u00f6kan Zeybek and B\u00fclent Tezcan and who have switched from CHP to AK Party in the last 1 year:
\n1 August 14, 2025 \u00d6zlem \u00c7er\u00e7io\u011flu - Mayor of Ayd\u0131n Metropolitan Municipality - CHP to AK Party
\n2 August 14, 2025 Mustafa \u0130berya Ar\u0131kan - Mayor of S\u00f6ke (Ayd\u0131n) - CHP to AK Party
\n3 August 14, 2025 Malik Ercan - Mayor of Yenipazar (Ayd\u0131n) - CHP to AK Party
\n4 August 14, 2025 Osman Y\u0131ld\u0131r\u0131mkaya - Mayor of Sultanhisar (Ayd\u0131n) - CHP to AK Party
\n5 August 14, 2025 Umut Y\u0131lmaz - Mayor of \u015eehitkamil Municipality (Gaziantep) - CHP to AK Party
\nAugust 6, 2025 Yasemin Fazlaca - Mayor of Alt\u0131nova (Yalova) - CHP to AK Party
\nSeptember 7, 2025 Hasan Ustao\u011flu - Mayor of Seydi\u015fehir (Konya) - CHP to AK Party
\nThis is the list of those who were nominated by the current administration and who switched to the AKP. Do those who blame K\u0131l\u0131\u00e7daro\u011flu have an answer to this list? The answer to this question lies here.<\/p>\n

IV. TABLE OF 6 AND 39 DEPUTIES: COMPLICITY OF SILENCE<\/strong><\/p>\n

I ask those who today shout \u201ctrusted deputy\u201d:
\nCHP Group Deputy Chairman \u00d6zg\u00fcr \u00d6zel,
\nWhere were you when you openly advocated giving 39 deputies to the alliance partners during the Table of 6 process?
\nWho objected?
\nWho stood up?
\nWho said \u201cwrong\u201d?
\nNo one.
\nThose who speak today were silent that day.
\nThose who are shouting today, signed it that day.
\nThat is why this discussion is not sincere.
\nThat is why K\u0131l\u0131\u00e7daro\u011flu is the target.<\/p>\n

V. THE REALITY OF ISAMOGLU AND SLOW: YOU CANNOT DISTORT HISTORY<\/strong><\/p>\n

Let everyone know this:
\nEkrem \u0130mamo\u011flu and Mansur Yava\u015f were nominated despite internal party opposition.
\n\u201cIt was objected to as \u201dright-wing\".
\n\u201cIt is against party tradition,\u201d it was said.
\n\u201cIt was called \u201drisk\".
\nWho made him a candidate?
\nKemal K\u0131l\u0131\u00e7daro\u011flu.
\nAll those in the CHP leadership today owe their political existence to the K\u0131l\u0131\u00e7daro\u011flu era.
\nThose who do not say this are dishonest, if not ungrateful.
\nThe transfer of Beykoz and Gaziosmanpa\u015fa to AKP by Imamo\u011flu's municipal council members is not discussed.
\nBut K\u0131l\u0131\u00e7daro\u011flu is put in the crosshairs.
\nWhat is this if not a double standard?<\/p>\n

VI. MEDIA IS ALSO A DEFENDANT<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u015eaban Sevin\u00e7, Nasuh Bekta\u015f, Cem Toker, \u0130smail Saymaz, Mustafa Balbay...
\nSame story. Same blind spot.
\nIt is safe to hit K\u0131l\u0131\u00e7daro\u011flu.
\nQuestioning Imamo\u011flu is risky.
\nIt is forbidden to force \u00d6zg\u00fcr \u00d6zel.
\nIt is not journalism to constantly turn a crisis into an opportunity, to act like a merchant, to take a position according to the conjuncture, to lean wherever the power is.
\nThere is no respect or loyalty left for Kemal K\u0131l\u0131\u00e7daro\u011flu, who pulled you out of the Ergenekon jail, who stood by you against political bans, conspiracies and lynchings.
\nThis is not journalism; it is conjunctural loyalty.<\/p>\n

VII. AN OPEN CALL TO ISMAI\u0307L SAYMAZ<\/strong><\/p>\n

If truth is your concern...
\nIf your concern is public enlightenment...
\nGo interview Kemal K\u0131l\u0131\u00e7daro\u011flu.
\nCall him to Halk TV.
\nAsk him to face the accusations you wrote.
\nThis is where courage is measured.
\nIf you don't hand a microphone to the silenced, you are not a journalist; you are a storyteller.<\/p>\n

VIII. LAST WORD: THIS IS A CHALLENGE<\/strong><\/p>\n

This article is not a call for reconciliation.
\nThis writing is not soft.
\nThis article is meant to disturb.
\nHistory is not made by lynching.
\nYou cannot build politics with distortions.
\nMorality does not change according to the person.
\nJournalism does not rely on power.
\nAnd this case is not closed.
\nBecause the truth grows the more it is silenced.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
