ABD'NİN AFGANİSTAN VE IRAK MÜDAHALELERİ SIRASINDA TÜRKİYE'NİN TUTUMUNUN ABD MEDYASINDA ELE ALINIŞI

11 Eylül terör saldırılarının ardından Afganistan'a yapılan müdahale sırasında dünya kamuoyunun desteğini almış olan ABD, 2003 yılında, hemen her ülkede oluşan tepki ve protestolara aldırmadan ve savaşın meşruiyeti konusunda diğer ülkeleri ikna edemeden, kitle imha silahları bulundurduğu gerekçesiyle Irak'a müdahale etmiştir. ABD'nin NATO üyesi bir müttefiki olmasının yanısıra Irak'ın komşusu olmasından kaynaklanan stratejik konumu nedeniyle, Türkiye de ister istemez kendisini bu sürecin içerisinde bulmuştur. Ancak gerek savaş öncesinde, gerekse savaş sırasında, Irak konusunda, ABD ile birçok kez görüş ayrılığı içerisine düşülmüş, özellikle 1 Mart 2003 tarihli tezkereyle Amerikan askerlerinin Türk topraklarından geçişine izin verilmemiş olması nedeniyle iki ülke arasındaki ilişkiler gerilmiştir. Bu çalışma, iki ülke arasında Irak politikası nedeniyle yaşanan gerginliklerin Amerika'nın önde gelen gazetelerinden The New York Times'ta, 2001-2003 yıllları arasında, nasıl bir Türkiye görüntüsü sergilediğini ortaya çıkarmak amacıyla yapılmıştır.

AMERICAN MEDIA PERCEPTION OF TURKEY'S POLICIES DURING THE AFGHANISTAN AND IRAQ INTERVENTION

The United States of America, who has enjoyed a broad support of the world with regards to the operation to Afghanistan initiated in reaction to the 9-11 assaults, failed to convince the world about the legitimacy of the Iraqi intervention based on the claim of the presence of the mass destruction weapons in Iraq. Turkey, a neighboring country to Iraq as well as a NATO member and an ally of the US, has naturally turned out to be one of the stakeholders of the war. However, there have been frequent conflicts between the US and Turkey during the pre Iraqi war period. The conflict reached at its peak when Turkish Parliament disapproved the passage of the American troops from the Turkish territory on March 1, 2003. This study aims to clarify how "The New York Times", one of the most influential papers of the US, reflected these tense relations to its pages and how Turkey was portrayed from 2001 to 2003.
