Jewish Supremacy

The west sanctions Russia for invading Ukraine.  

Why are they not imposing sanctions on Israel?

The brutal subjugation of Palestinians, justified by a toxic ideology of Jewish supremacy and racism, will only be halted by the kind of sanctions campaign mounted successfully against the apartheid regime in South Africa. 

Short of that, Israel will be a despotic theocracy.

Political Disaster

To live in the illusion of the intellectually challenged wealthy elitists remains a political disaster in this province until the people wake up and realize the magician has been putting on a sleight-of-hand show. 

Time to re-orient ourselves to actual critical thinking as a major part of our decision-making again, otherwise the tricksters win and we all lose at the hands of the tyrannical minority.

Real Madrid in the 1980s

Living in Turkey, in the mid 1980s, we use to get the European games live. Best teams back then or the ones that made it thru the elimination rounds were Real Madrid, Juventus, PSV Eindhoven, and Goteberg. 

You might remember, the English teams were banned from European soccer due to the Liverpool incident were the fans attacked the Italian visitors and the wall collapsed to kill a lot of them. 

I’ll have to find who the Italian team was, I think it was Juventus or AC Milan. 

Anyway, back then it was nice watching the games, it was always on Wednesday nights. My favourite team was Real Madrid.  

Also, back then there was only one channel, so you knew everyone in Istanbul were watching the same thing on TV. 

If you put your head outside your window, you would hear the echo coming from all the sounds of the TVs on. I remember that. It was cool. 

Life was more simple.

Durrusehvar Sultan

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dürrüşehvar_Sultan

Despite being a member of Ottoman royal family, she refused to be buried in Turkey, since she was upset that the Turkish Government refused her father's burial in Istanbul in 1944.

The Republic of Turkey was very cruel to the Ottoman dynasty, Thanks to the first rulers’ legacy.

Bending Over of the Ottomans by the Imperialists

I don’t buy the argument or at least the down playing of Erdogan’s leadership by all the western writers/journalists.  I don’t buy it. 

He was elected numerous times by the majority of the citizens of Turkey. Why does the west keep referring and thinking and believing Erdogan is a lessor ruler, than say anyone of his counterparts? Is it because the west cannot put a puppet candidate to win against him? And just concludes, Erdogan is a dictator. Where is the proof that he is? 

When the French declared marshal law for the uprising and used excessive force, not  one western nation said that France was going over board beating/killing the immigrants. 

When Turkey declared marshal law because bombs were dropped onto the parliament, everyone of the western nations said, Erdogan is going over board in arresting so many military staff/reporters/judges etc. 

The double standard is obvious.  

I’m more liberal than most Turks, and it would piss me off if the same ruler kept winning elections. And I know many people in Turkey hate that he keeps winning, but living outside of Turkey and always reading negative comments about Erdogan and his party, really makes me say, “I hope he keeps winning to piss off the western rulers who donot know how to deal with him.”

I strongly feel he will win 2023, and the last few years of his rule will be melancholy as Turkey will wonder who will lead them next. Same mentality ruler like Erdogan (I hope so) or a “yes boss” man like most all of the leaders before Erdogan, even Ataturk was a “yes boss” man to the Imperialists.  

Yes boss, I’ll get rid of Islam. 

Yes boss, I’ll get rid of the Arabic writing. 

Yes boss, I’ll get rid of the Adhan. 

Yes boss, I’ll make sure women who attend university cannot wear the hijab. 

Yes boss, I’ll hang all the imams who go against western values. 

Yes boss, I’ll eliminate 1,000 Arabic words and put French words in our language, to move us away from the Arabs/Islam and closer to the west. 

Thought to share, I’m just thinking out loud, it will be another short book I’m working on. The title will be, The Bending Over of the Ottomans by the Imperialists. 

Edirne Kapi Cemetery

My mom passed away in October 2019, she wanted to be buried in the same grave as her father and mothers. Plus, her older sister is in the same grave.   

Her family’s grave is in Istanbul, neighborhood is called Edirne Kapi, meaning, Adrian’s Door.  

The walls of Constantinople had multiple entry points into the city, and each entrance had a name. Her parents are buried at the outskirts of Adrian’s Door. 

In Islam, the deceased is not placed in the coffin, in the grave. What they do is, the deceased is brought to the grave site in the coffin, then taken out of the coffin, to be placed deep at the fooor of the grave, only in a white shroud. The body decomposes very fast in the grave. 

Therefore, in Istanbul, you are allowed to bury a person in the same grave every seven years.  In that one grave, my grandfather, grandmother, and aunt are resting. Probably, many other relatives that I do not know of.    

Well my mom wanted to be buried in that grave, but it did not happen.  

She is burried at the gravesite at yellowhead, exactly at the corner of 97 street and yellowhead. The Turkish portion of the cemetery is at that corner. 

Eski Imaret Mosque / Church

I was born and lived the first seven years of my life, next door, literally, a few houses away from the church / mosque named, Eski Imaret.

As a little kid I have played inside it hundreds of times. I use to play while the older people prayed. It is so nice inside it. They say there are graves under it, and you sure can feel something there. 

Go there, if you ever make it to Istanbul. 

It is about a 30 walk from the Blue Misque.
