Ottoman Empire officers like Ataturk and Ismet İnönü fought for the Ottoman Empire like most of their careers and sustained injuries; those badmouthing them didn't put in a quarter of the effort Ottoman officer cadres did. If there was any other solution Ottoman officer cadres would have done it. No one is happy when an empire is coming to an end, and it didn't happen suddenly. For over a hundred year, well before Ataturk, both sultans, statesmen, and high-ranked officers tried different ways to save the empire. Every Ottoman officer was aware the empire was dying, but until Ataturk, no one had an idea what should come next. Some proposed a new citizenship Ottomanism, some proposed a religious union, and some advised becoming a half vassal under a major European force like UK or France.

Albania celebrates its independance day.

Jordan celebrates the Arab revolt.

Somehow its the Turks that are dividing the Ummah.

Nations from the Balkans to the Middle East all celebrate their "independance" or their wars against the Ottoman Empire.

Even Malta every year celebrates the Siege of Malta in 1565.

Beating the Turks for them is like winning the lottery in their useless histories. They got nothing to amount to shit.

Somehow we are the Bad Guys.

This is how TOGG is going to die, considering who is listening and harvesting data, it's quite obvious that the ropes are / will be in the hands of those rolling out these wheeled smart spy vehicles.

Old cars are going to be very expensive and prized.
it would be a silver-lining if these companies would add the local companies to their supply chain but the Chinese won't even employ the locals for their factories. They bring their ethnic Chinese workforce from China to produce the cars. And our government builds "Chinatowns" to accommodate them.

So what's the point of inviting the Chinese companies here if we can't even have our bolts on these cars?

Crusaders were so successful man!!

Arabs reached what is now Paris and took Sicily.

While the Turks reached Vienna and stayed in Europe until the 1900s.

If it wasnt for the Industrial Revolution which in fact had nothing to do with Christianity or the Crusades the Turks would have most likely stayed in the Balkans.

Crusader fanboys tell me how successful the crusades are because they beaten back the Muslims. While in reality they lost in thr Middle East also sacked Constantinople in 1204.

Crusaders were not just unleashed on Muslims but also other Christians, Jews, Heretic and Pagans like the Prussians, Lithuanians and the Latvians. Lithuania was one of the last European countries to embrace Roman Catholicism.

Which arabs reached Paris&Siciliy?

I liked Ryder’s post but this one made me thought as well. I‘ve heard even Vikings reaching Paris but never heard of any Muslim bands/armies.
Im not rejecting it, just never heard of it and would like to know more.

Wait, really? What is the point of having the factories in Turkey in the first place If Turkey gets nothing from this deal?

You almost did didnt you,or should i say Moors? 😁 😁 ;)

The point is a lot of easy quick money and brochures for the AKP political blob.

After the crazy evangelical lady and Secretary Rubio with a cross on her forehead, another colorful character has appeared on Trump's team - Defense Secretary Hegseth. He has fresh tattoos on his arm with the text "So God Decided." Below it is written in Arabic "kafir."
They say that he used to serve in a special forces unit. Apparently, frequent parachute jumps and head slams on the ground do not have a positive effect on mental abilities :)

Trump's National security team turned out to be a bunch of clowns few days ago with that ridiculous signal chat leak. I remember Our friend @Nilgiri was hopeful about reform, resetting the institutions and salvaging everything from so called DEI infestations. Now I wonder if Trump and his team with is any better replacement though, specially with grown baby Elon musk, Pete Hegseth and JD Vance in it.😂

If the other political side decides to fess up and apply chronological accountability on Hillary's private server and her deliberate bleach bit when given a subpoena....we have cassus belli for consistency the other way.

But one political side caused precedence on it back then already now didn't it.

i.e that ship sailed long ago.

Like I said one looks at who actually signs up for the military in any country....and are the actual working class in the end.

The democraps can keep leaning into coastal elitist "single white lady" tardation and whimsical fantasies/delusions all they want....and lean into trying to be the tail that wags the dog all they want and FAFO on that all they want.

Then throw a hissy fit when the dog wags the tail....just a little bit, to put the tail in its place.

This is what the AKP and Islamist/Umtards dont understand either.....when they subvert Ataturkist nature of the country.

i.e they dont seem to get the kind of Turks that sign up for the Ataturkist military and form the working class too. So they will learn from that later inevitably too.

It is why they exactly mirror the democraps in mass open borders to import non-Turks, islamism and anything else that will subvert law and order for political expedience.....just like the democraps went for....and have now FAFO'ed on it.

Oops. Even looking at just the working class alone:


“Over the last decade, the Democratic Party has had a working-class voter problem. It started out as a white working-class voter problem,” said Boyle. “And it has, as I've long feared, spread. It is not just a white working-class issue. It has now spread to the Latino working class and African American working class.”

.... now who's fault is that?

Holy fuck, they are saying that "THE NUMBER OF CHINESE EMPLOYEES MAY RISE TO 50 THOUSAND WITH THEIR FAMILIES" That is full-on colonisation.

What the fuck are they thinking about letting this happen? It is not only destroying local industries by preventing Turkish brands from emerging but also preventing the transfer of technology and know-how.

What country's laws will they follow? Who will they pay their taxes to?

Ferdi Zeyrek is from CHP.

Remember regardless of which party it is AKP and Chp they will all sell out their own country to pocket the money for themselves.

Like the refugee crisis this will also destroy Turkiye in the long run.

This CHP guy is the mayor of municipality right?

That's different to the national govt that makes the economic policy to bring this into Turkiye like this to begin with.

Municipalities/local govt culpability is far less in end (resistance to it just means it moves to another municipality etc)....they are downstream to national govt and make do with what is now set in.

If CHP running govt at ankara, then yes they take ownership of this bad policy just the same. But its AKP there now....and frankly their economic policy in general (relative to whats at hand inside Turkiye) really stinks.
