"...Haham Nagen, President of the Ohr Torah Stone Blickle Interfaith Dialogue Institute, has been working to build bridges of dialogue between
#Jews
and
#Muslims
for years. He stressed that Gülen Hocaefendi not only influenced those around him but also transformed his own views
In today's world,
#Turkey
's utmost importance to the West does NOT come PRIMARILY from its geostrategic location. It comes from its strategic cultural, linguistic & historical depth. To exemplify this,
#Grece
will NOT gain much geostrategic importance if they decide to trade
In the long term, Turkey would be better off with a Kurdish neighbour along its southeastern border, so instead of fighting the Kurds, it should help them both in Syria and Iraq establish their independent states and have a stronger and deeper cooperation with them.
Latest victims of the Erdogan regime: these 6 beautiful children were separated from their parents, who were both sent to prison today—
Father was an educator in Gulen prep school, hence 9 years of conviction for “terrorism” charges. Mother was a homemaker, convicted for 6 years!

' s Zelensky: “I’m asking them, are you with us? They say they are with us but they are not ready to take us in the [Nato] military alliance. All of them are afraid.”
The best course of action for
#Turkey
- if they want to be a more than regional power- is to side with the West in
#Ukraine
, help the
#Kurds
establish their statehoods or autonomy (
#Iraq
&
#Syria
), and remove
#Assad
from power.👇👇👇

Ukrainian soldier to Putler's soldiers:"Did you like the Bayraktars (Turkish drones)? Do you know what is flying over your head? We have everything to fight. You'd better surrender.For now, we are capturing you as a prisoner of war. Run away as you still have a chance".
#Ukraine
#Turkey
's
#Erdogan
tries (will keep trying) hard to win the election legally with such political maneuvers 👇 and public expenditures but in the end, he will have to implement the strategy👇 outlined by us 13 months ago to win or postpone it.
Due to his deteriorating health conditions,
#Turkey
's
#Erdogan
does NOT make public appearances or statements as often as before. The visits (to
#Hungary
,
#India
, and the US) he plans to make in the coming days/weeks will give us a clearer picture.
It would be a historical turning point in the U.S. -
#Turkey
relations if President
#Biden
who visited
#Ukraine
today could have paid a visit to the
#earthquake
areas in Turkey as Clinton did back in 1999.
For the first time in the history of
#Turkish
politics, the 'F' word is used by a politician -
#Bahceli
- at a rally: "Sam, Tony, Jony, Merkel & Frank - if they all try to f..k
#Erdogan
, they will not succeed". He probably wanted to use the verb: 'silkelemek' (shake him up).
#Turkey
’s ‘compassionate’ leader
#Erdogan
offers his 1150-room ‘White Palace’ to the
#earthquake
victims. He says this is their home and they can stay as long as they want, ALL INCLUSIVE that includes dragon fruit smoothies:::)))
"The U.S. is profoundly concerned by the reports of today's destructive
#earthquake
in
#T
ürkiye and
#Syria
. We stand ready to provide all needed assistance.
#Biden
has directed USAID and other federal govt partners to assess U.S. response to help those most affected.."
#Ukraine
Zelensky calls on Europeans with "combat experience" to take up arms and defend Ukraine against invading Russian forces, adding the West was too slow to help his country.

Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu has enough votes to win but he needs to have a functioning system/mechanism that counts the ballots and monitors the election process properly. Most importantly, he needs to show strong leadership and determination to challenge the state authorities including
#Turkey
's
#Erdogan
now blames God for the economic crisis by reminding a verse from Quran: "We will certainly test you with a touch of fear and famine and loss of property, life, and crops. Give good news to those who patiently endure." (Baqarah 155).
#Russia
's Putler has made a terrible strategic mistake by trying to invade
#Ukraine
. Hopefully,
#Ukraine
's heroic resistance will rekindle the quest for freedom in
#Chechnya
and other Republics in the
#Caucasus
. In this sense,
#Ukraine
' s resistance is of great importance...
Forty-two countries voted in favor of Russia's suspension from the Council of Europe. Erdogan’s
#Turkey
abstained. This happened a few hours after this statement below!
Such a HYPROCITE! Erdogan:
#NATO
's reaction to
#Russia
should be more decisive, not enough condemnation. EU and West just continue giving recommendations, not taking action. This doesn’t serve anyone.
#NATO
summit shouldn’t become a festival for condemnations or more advices.“

For the first time in a long while, a major
#Turkish
news channel - Habertürk- cuts off the speech of
#Erdogan
to air the speech of his main rival - Kemal Kilicdaroglu.
Your intellectual level has already been tested and shown by yourself. Just look what you said right after your first tweet. Are the Gülenists "deeply average" or "brighter kids"? 😂What more tests do you need to confirm your intellectual level?
#Ukraine
’s heroic resistance means trouble for Asad. If
#Ukranian
resistance continues and grows, opposition groups in
#Syria
will start their campaign again. They may even have a chance to remove Asad from power, which -in turn- will expedite the downfall of Putler.

The 'foreign agent' -
@umitozdag
- is turning into a real nutcase: Interrupting the sermon in the mosque and asking for prayers for the soul of Atatürk.🤣

But you are NOT an intel officer of

You are a foreign agent working for the interest of

This is just the beginning. EXPECT the restart of the conflicts where
#Russia
was a 'key' player including
#Syria
,
#Libya
,
#Georgia
as the weakness of

has been surfaced with the stupid decision of
#Putin
regarding the invasion of

Erdogan's interior minister confidently claimed last June that
#Germany
, the
#USA
, the UK,
#France
,
#Italy
would eat their hearts out as a result of the incredible growth of the Turkish economy that was supposed to start last July. He was quite 'right': Today 1 USD = 9 TRY!
Turkey missed a historical chance a few years ago in winning the ‘the hearts and minds’ of Kurds by not helping the Kurds against ISIS in Kobane. It should not make the things worse by invading the NE Syria.
Turkey's Finance Minister on CNN TURK spreads a conspiracy theory that the US Federal Reserve does not belong to the American public but rather is in the hands of 5 families. Just everyday news on

A week passed without a public appearance or public statement (just this one on his first day: had to read a short statement consisting of simple daily phrases). What is he afraid of?
The head of the

Election Board (YSK) who avoided announcing the votes of the presidential candidates when 47% of the votes were already in their system decides to announce them with a light heart when 92% of the votes were entered into their system. These two videos tell
