How the Gülen Organization Threatens Whistleblowers
What we have learned thus far in our international investigation of the Gülen organization is that there is a predominant culture of fear and intimidation.

Today’s Zaman and the Cult of Gülen
Following the press conference we held yesterday concerning the new suit brought against the U.S.-based Turkish preacher Fethullah Gülen, we were expecting the typical onslaught on threats, insults, and misinformation from the Gülen media empire just like last time, most notably led by Today’s Zaman.
