STRATEJİ, ÖRGÜTLENME VE MOTİVASYONUYLA KENDİNE ÖZGÜ BİR TERÖRİST ÖRGÜT: FETÖ

Tarihsel olarak terörizm tiplerinin hemen hepsine şahitlik eden Türkiye, Fetullahçı Terörist Örgüt (FETÖ)’ün devletin çeşitli kademelerine sızdırdığı, elemanlarıyla gerçekleştirmeye çalıştığı darbe girişimi neticesinde yüzlerce şehit ve binlerce yaralı vermiştir. Her ne kadar örgüt, şiddet eylemlerini 15 Temmuz 2016 tarihinde gerçekleştirmiş olsa da kuruluşu ve gelişimi bunun çok öncesine uzanmaktadır. Terörist örgüt; uyguladığı yöntemler, eylem tipleri, eleman temini, örgütlenme, din istismarı, yurt dışı bağlantıları gibi birçok özellik sebebiyle benzerlerinden farklılık arz etmektedir. Bu nedenle FETÖ, 21’inci yüzyılın getirdiği avantajları da kullanan taktik ve stratejisiyle terörizm çalışmalarının odaklanması gereken önemli bir araştırma konusudur. Bu çalışmanın amacı; FETÖ’nün organizasyon modelini, stratejisini ve motivasyonlarını oluşturan dinamiklerin araştırılması ve bu doğrultuda örgütün kendine özgü özelliklerinin ortaya çıkarılmasıdır. Araştırmanın temel varsayımı; bu dinamiklerin diğer terörist örgütlerle benzer yanlarına rağmen önemli farklılıklar taşıdığı, bu sebeple de FETÖ’ nün kendine özgü yeni tip bir terörist örgüt olduğudur. Çalışmada tarihsel perspektif göz önünde bulundurularak çeşitli terörist örgütlerin organizasyon modelleri, stratejileri ve motivasyon kaynakları incelenmiştir. Bunlar FETÖ ile karşılaştırılarak benzerlikler ve farklılıklar belirlenmiş ve çalışmanın temel varsayımı karşılaştırmalı vaka analizleri aracılığıyla sorgulanmıştır.

A SUI GENERIS TERRORIST ORGANIZATION WITH ITS STRATEGY, ORGANIZATION AND MOTIVATION: FETO

Turkey, which has historically witnessed almost all types of terrorism, has also suffered from hundreds of martyrs and thousands of casualties as a result of the coup attempt carried out by the Fetullahist Terrorist Organization (FETO) with its members infiltrated through various levels of the state. Although the organization committed acts of violence on July 15, 2016, its organization and activities date back well before. This terrorist organization differs from its counterparts due to its methods, types of actions, recruitment and indoctrination, organization, exploitation of the religion and connections abroad. Therefore, FETO is an important research subject that should be of interest to terrorism studies with its tactics and strategy, which also uses the advantages of the 21st century. The aim of this study is to analyze the dynamics that constitute the organizational model, strategy and motivations of FETO and to reveal the unique characteristics of the organization in this respect. The basic assumption of the research is that these dynamics, despite their similarities with other terrorist organizations, have significant differences, and therefore FETO is a new type of terrorist organization. Organizational models, strategies and motivational sources of various terrorist organizations were examined by taking historical perspective into consideration. These were compared with FETO, similarities and differences were determined and the basic assumption of the study was questioned through comparative case studies.
