It’s Summertime

Nog even terugspoelen naar 10 oktober 2025. Wat waren ook al weer de 10 belangrijkste verkiezingsthema’s? 1. Immigratie - D66: het kan niet 2. Woningbouw - D66: 10 steden =metafoor 3. Waarden en normen - D66: liegen over CV, tegen wil van de kamer in handelen 4. Veiligheid - D66: bosjes snoeien ipv aanpakken criminelen 5. Klimaat - D66: accijnzen niet omlaag. D66 zijn volksverlakkers.

Dit zijn alleen nog maar de rijksambtenaren. Het kan zo niet doorgaan. Een kleine ambtenarij is olie, een grote is zand in de machinerie van de samenleving.

On March 30, 1822, when the massacre in Chios began, the Muslim Turks had clear orders. The Sultan had commanded that all Greek Christians be slaughtered, except for boys aged 3-12 and women from 12 to 40. These would be captured and destined for the slave markets. Young girls were raped publicly in the streets, and newlyweds in front of their husbands, who were then slaughtered. Others were raped in front of their parents, after which the men's genitals were cut off. Women over 40 were set on fire and left to burn alive. Pregnant women had their bellies ripped open and their fetuses pulled out, while small children were thrown forcefully against rocks. The frenzy of the Muslims was unprecedented. Many Turkish soldiers cut off the heads of Greek Christians and then licked their swords. With this act, they believed they would earn a place in paradise. Others were hanged from the island's trees for deterrence. Severed human limbs and corpses were scattered on the streets, while the sea had turned red from the blood. The smoke from the burning houses had covered all of Chios, while the flames made the night look like day.Several women from Chios preferred death over dishonor and slavery. They committed suicide by jumping off cliffs. Some were killed while defending their children, siblings, and husbands. Even among those who were captured, some died on hunger strike.Destitute women and children from the island were crammed into ships and transported to the markets of Smyrna and Constantinople, where they were sold as slaves at humiliating prices. By May 1, 1822, over 41.000 slave ownership documents, known as "teskerés", had been issued in Chios. According to the French-language newspaper of Smyrna, Spectateur Oriental, by May 10, duties had been paid at the Smyrna customs for 40,000 slaves. The priest Welsh from the English embassy in Constantinople recorded what he saw in those days at the city's slave market: "The Turks treated the women from Chios with utmost contempt. They examined them, groped them like butchers do lambs, and bought them for 100 grosia to 3 pounds per head. About 500 women from Chios were sold in the fish market." The tragic events of Chios shocked Europe and America. For many weeks, the European press reported daily information and descriptions about the fate of the inhabitants, the massacres, the plunder, and the sale of women and children in the slave markets. Korais writes in a letter to Varvakis: "Imagine that you see Christ on the Cross, drenched in His blood, and calling out to you these paternal words: My son Varvakis, many thousands of captives baptized in my name are in danger at this hour of renouncing me and embracing the abominable religion of Mohammed. Behold the time, baptized in my name, beloved son, to save your baptized brothers from the Turkish defilement." The horrific images of the crimes of the Muslims against the Greek Christians were never erased from the collective memory of Europeans. Great European artists were so shocked by the descriptions that they created important works inspired by Chios. The famous painting by Delacroix is exhibited to this day in a prominent position at the Louvre. Victor Hugo's poem titled "The Greek Child" is a moving record. But the most famous sculpture of 19th-century America also stands out, named: the "Greek Slave." The sculptor Hiram Powers began carving it about twenty years after the tragic events. The statue depicts a young woman, nude, bound with chains. In one hand, she holds a small cross on a chain. Powers himself describes the subject of his work as follows: "The Slave has been abducted by the Turks from one of the Greek Islands during the Greek Revolution, the history of which is known to all. Her father and mother, and perhaps all her relatives, have been exterminated by her enemies, and she alone was kept alive, as a treasure that could not be thrown away. Now she is among barbarian strangers, under the pressure of the full recollection of the catastrophic events that led her to this state. She stands exposed to the gaze of people she abhors, and awaits her fate with intense anxiety, which is mitigated by her trust in the goodness of God. Gather all these sufferings together, and add to them the strength and resignation of a Christian, and there is no room left for shame." (You can search for the sculpture to see it; I'm not uploading it because X might take down the post for sensitive content.) As a Greek, I will use my weapon, the knowledge of my history, to warn as many as I can about the violent and barbaric invasion of Islam and the war we are experiencing today. I will do whatever I can to warn you. - Homer Pavlos

Turkey in the 12th century was a Christian nation called Anatolia and about 99% of the population was Christian. In about 800 years Islam eliminated Christianity in it and today it’s about 99% Islam. Iraq, Syria, Egypt (a Coptic Christian minority remains in Egypt. A minority that is brutally persecuted even today, until it will disappears) and North Africa were also Christian nations in which Christianity was exterminated by Islam (a small percentage of Christian remain). Pakistan was Hindu and so is Afghanistan, today they are Islamic, with a small Hindu and Christian minority remaining in Pakistan. A minority which is persecuted by Islam until it will exterminated by it. The historical experience of about 1,400 years teaches that every culture that stands in the way of Islam, sooner or later is destroyed by it without leaving any trace of it. Over time, if they don’t wake up and understand what is in front of them, this is what will happen to Western Europe and North America as well.

Trump zei gisteren in zijn toespraak dat eerdere leiders al eerder met deze islamitische republiek hadden moeten afrekenen. Schrik niet niet van de beelden Hij heeft gelijk, het beleid van pappen en nathouden werkt niet in een theocratie.
