Poyraz's 2007 book Children of Moses accused Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and his wife of being secret Jews and cooperating with Israeli intelligence to undermine Turkish secularism.[3][5] His another book The Rose of Moses contains similar allegations about President Abdullah Gül.[6] It was the second best-selling book in Turkey in 2007.[7] At the time of his 2007 arrest Poyraz appears to have been working on a book about Deniz Baykal.[8]

In 2013, Poyraz lost a libel case brought on behalf of the preacher Fethullah Gülen, the leader of the controversial Islamic Gülen movement,[9] over his book Amerika'daki İmam ("The Imam in America").[10]

According to media reports, the Turkish Gendarmerie bought thousands of copies of Poyraz' books.[14]
