Turkey and Walmart and Costco

Turkey is actually a country that does not need USA any longer, before yes they needed their help, but now, less. 

USAs foreign policy has pushed Turkey to get closer with her neighbours. 

Like what is going on? here is a comparison of a recent transaction between the counties. 

USA (Walmart) does not deliver the jets Turkey bought and paid a deposit on, as written and promised in the contract signed. And when Turkey goes across the street to Russia (Costco) to buy them, Turkey is the bad guy?!?

No way,

Annesinin Vasiyeti

Is yerinde calistigim bir arkadasimin annesi oldu 10 sene once.  Kanada’da dogmus Hindistan’li arkadas.  

Annesinin vasiyeti, oldukten sonra yakip kullerini Pacific denizine dokun demis arkadasa. 

Bu arkadas, genc iken ailece Vancouver’da yasarlarmis ve picnic yaparlarmis denizin kenarinda. Annesi bu yeri cok sevmis.  

Tabii sonra Edmonton’a tasinmislar seneler once ve annesi olmus. 

Arkadas ile bindik arabaya cuma aksami ve Edmonton’dan Vancouver’a araba ile gittik. Tam 15 saat’de vardik.  

Annesinin kulleri bir kavanozun icinde arka koltukta. 

Tabii 30 sene olmus Vancouver’dan Edmonton’a tasinali, ve o denizin kenarindaki picnic yeri biraz degismis.  Cok degismis, heryer ev dolmus.  

Ama yinede buldu picnic yerini ve tam gunesin batisinda, annesinin kullerini denize doktu. Arkadas hickira hickira agliyordu.  Uzun sure deniz kenarinda oturdu cocukcagiz. 

Cok etkilenmistim hatirliyorum. 

Hayat boyle olsa gerek.  

Yasadigimiz gibi oluyoruz.

Vahdettin’s Home

Further reading of the Vahdettin’s home. 

I did not know, I guess this is almost the replica of Vahdettin’s home, rebuilt in 2013. 

I have driven on the road in front of this structure, about 30 years ago, but it was not like it is now, it was just lots of trees and a big building behind the trees that I could not fully see. But I never knew that it was the home of the last sultan, back then. 

I only found this out about 5 to 10 years ago. 

I always assumed he lived at the Dolmabahce Palace, which he did as well, while he was in office, his last few years were in Dolmabahce. (The palace in the Besiktas district, European side area.)

Alexander Vallaury and Vahdettin

Alexander V (Wikipedia below) completed many projects at the tale end of the empire. 


Also, it does not say in the Wikipedia site, but he also completed the home of the last sultan of the empire, Vahdettin. 

His home is on the Asian side, if you ever go to Istanbul, the home is at the top of the hill in the Cengelkoy neighborhood, between the first two bridges.
