diers and police, the unrepentant street fights and vicious ambushes
             laid against our military and law enforcement officers are adequate
             reasons for keeping on with high security outpost constructions. In
             fact, the Southeast region of Turkey is already surrounded by a per-
             ilous geography in consideration of our Syrian and Iraqi borders.
             Accordingly, the continuation of building these outposts has great

             significance in that regard too. While the number of high security out-
             posts is multiplying, their quality should also be enhanced, turning
             them into living spaces providing facilities for health, education and
             social activities in a way to contribute to the people of the region
             while also serving as security points. The mobile electronic system
             integration should be transformed into a highly professional scheme
             to allow for the best and most far-reaching monitoring in the region.

                  Cemil Bayık, who once confessed that he "was defeated by ISIL
             that carried out guerrilla warfare on lowlands" 113  set forth in the Die
             Zeit newspaper, "Turkey can no longer combat against us with regu-

             lar armed forces". 114  In this way he clearly set out how he was in
             despair in the face of treacherous attacks that hit from behind like his
             own way of assault, and regards Turkey as incapacitated – just
             because Turkey does not take part in perfidious guerrilla warfare. For
             that reason, the manufacturing and purchase of long-range missiles
             should be accelerated and these missiles should be directly deployed
             towards predominantly risky territories and indeed immediately

             towards Mount Qandil. Missiles are definitely the most effective and
             deterrent arms in comparison to other weapons of defense such as
             tanks, rifles, cannon and even fighter jets. That being the case, it is of
             vital necessity to give prominence to deployment of long-range mis-
             siles.

                  Taking an example from Iran will be pertinent at this point. It
             may be recalled that Iran launched an unexpected operation against
             the PJAK (the Iranian branch of the PKK) in 2011. In this operation,
             the PKK militants that had infiltrated into Iran were turned away, and
