    Erdogan wanted a pious generation but instead that backfired. Because of a global trend. People are leaving religion. You cant combat progress like capitalism, modern science and technology. Karl Marx supported the North during the American civil war and outlined his reasons for it. -South...

    Why does modern Science contradict Islam and Christianity. One believe Science should be used to prove the existence of God and exalt his name while Modern Science is all about challenging everything including proving that there is no God. Religions, cultures and civilisations conducted...

    People dont realise this but the Seljuks destroyed the Mutazlite doctrine as they saw themselves as the champions of Sunni Islam. Mutaziltes were seen as the creed of reason and logic but they did oppress and get people killed for not believing in their doctrine. Islam is stronger than...

    Islam and Christianity are not Anti science. But Modern Science and the Abrahamic religions contradict each other. Muslims and Christians saw science as a way to prove God existed. I dont believe the dark ages myth a lot of historians no longer believe in the "dark ages". His talking about...

    You got to remember when you are a superpower or a strong empire your influence spread far wide. Ibn Khaldun mentioned this. Defeated peoples would admire or even imitdate their conquerors. Not just defeated peoples a powerful state can influence their neighbours. When the Turks took over...

    I support modernisation but not westernisation. We should never reject who we are. Japanese modernised but they never rejected their past or called their ancestors a joke. I know Japan has a lot of problems but at its core they are still traditional all those aspects of respect, honour and...

    Im happy Turkey still uses the F4 Phantom while in Australia we did the dumb stupid decision in retiring the General Dynamic F111 when that plane still had so much life in it also gave Australia long range bombing capabilities now China has it while Australia has none. Dumb move.

    We have a modernised version. But right now Hisar is going to phase the hawk out for good. Well Turkish air defence programs are already in full swing and the Hawk will get its retirement just like the F4 Phantoms will.

    Honestly I have no hope in Chp or even iyi party for that matter. Iyi party are known to jack off to bashar al assad. The Future is bleak. Never follow agreements which the other party does not.

    Usa and Russia have already agreed that Turkey will not be given any space in Syria. They are working together against us. Hence why both have stopped our operations in Manbij and Tal Rifat. Also Russia used the isis excuse to attack idlib and they broke the Sochi agreement which led to our...

    Why was/is the British army so capable?

    The Japanese fighting on too many fronts brought their end. I mean they have not even won in China as it has become a stalemate then they picked a fight with the British and the Americans. They came close to war with the Soviets but they lost the border conflicts and they got pushed out of...

    Russia is trying to intimidate us. Dont why Turkey is following the stupid agreements. Agreements are nothing more than toilet paper to the Russians.

    Russia wants us to yield, surrender or withdraw. Turkey is not budging whatsover but Russia is intensifying its bombings. Fck them to hell. The problem I have is we are sitting down doing nothing about it.

    Ibn Khalduns works even mentioned this. When you are a powerful civilisation or empire you have people admiring even copying your ways. Interesting with the whole Turquie movement. When Europeans copied the Ottomans from fashion to even military. The winged hussars even came from Turkic...

    I know this belongs in Turkish geopolitics or foreign policy. But I heard rumours that Kenan Evren met or kept contact with Gulbuddin Hekmatyar. Dont know how true it is.

    Why was/is the British army so capable?

    People forget that Poland also chipped away territory from its neighbours also how they participated in the partition of the Czechs. No doubt Poland suffered under the Nazis and the Soviets but I hate the victimhood mentality when they also caused the Nazis to be emboldened when Poland was...
