@CharlAikaterine Look Canada was colonised by the British and the French, the 2 biggest genocidal colonial super powers on the planet. The amount of death and destruction these 2 countries have committed around the planet is astronomical. Every other conquest can only stand in their shadow

If Canada is an illegitimate 'colonial project,' then so is Turkey. The Ottomans took the region only 44 years before the first part of Canada (Newfoundland) was claimed by the Kingdom of England, and Turkey is the successor state to the Ottomans. Better yet, Canada's colonizers never stole any infrastructure, unlike the Ottomans, who did with the Hagia Sophia, a sacred and monumental Byzantine Christian cathedral built in 537 CE by Emperor Justinian I. This Church was one of the greatest engineering and architectural achievements of the ancient world: a massive dome, an innovative design, and the center of Eastern Orthodox Christianity for nearly 1,000 years. The only reason Turkey has its ancient, grand vibe today is because the Ottomans seized, preserved, and repurposed what the Christian Byzantines and earlier Romans and Greeks had built, most famously converting Hagia Sophia and countless churches into mosques, while reducing the original Christian population to second-class dhimmi status, subjecting them to restrictions, special taxes, and periodic persecution, and eventually driving most of them out altogether. In contrast, in the region now Canada, the British and French settlers encountered no comparable infrastructure. No cathedrals, no stone cities, no aqueducts, no large-scale administrative buildings, no writing systems, no wheeled vehicles, no iron metallurgy, and so on. We cleared forests, built farms, towns, roads, ports, railways, and institutions from scratch on a landscape with low population density (only ~200,000 Indigenous people in the entire region) and pre-state-level tribal societies. The Indigenous people were not treated by the settlers as the dhimmi were treated by the Ottomans. Instead, they were granted exclusive reserves where White settlement was legally prohibited, treaty rights, and a distinct legal status designed to protect them from full demographic absorption by the settler majority. The exclusive demonization of the British and French settlers of Canada, and of the British in other parts of the Anglosphere, speaks volumes about what makes a country's claim valid in the eyes of the world. Those conquerors who are abusive, merciless, without compassion, devoid of merit in producing the fruits of civilization, and so on, are idealized, and their claims are considered legitimate, while those who dare to take the opposite path are heretically condemned as 'original sinners' by their own States. The Turks do not apologize for the Conquest of Istanbul (May 29, 1453). Each anniversary, they celebrate the fall of the Byzantines with official events, mehter bands, parades, fireworks, official speeches, and national Islamic pride, framing it as a glorious achievement for their people.

@MoreBirths Just leave it at cost of living. Rent and minimum wage are at par with each other. If both parents need to work full time, there is no space for kids.

Turkey's astonishing fertility collapse Turkey's president Erdoğan made it his mission to revive birthrates. Instead, Turkish fertility has fallen faster than almost anywhere on Earth to just 1.42 in 2025 (just 1.2 outside of Kurdistan). What happened, and what can we learn? 🧵.

@ShitpostRock2 It funny is a sense since that city wasn't Greek but Eastern roman.

@zerohedge Türkiye is constantly rebalanced their book for liquidity. That should be clear to people watching the gold chart. Turkiye sold their gold on the first big bounce after ATH. Which is exactly where you should sell. Now they can rebuild cheaper.

*TURKEY LIQUIDATED ALMOST ALL ITS US TREASURY HOLDINGS IN MARCH Turkey dumped their gold AND their treaesuries

@ottomanenglish This makes a lot more sense. But right in front of the coats of Kaş you'll find 1 more totally out of place Greek island. Which pushes the north western border further to the east. The rest starts as you described.

My personal opinion is that Germany and France were persuaded by Turkey regarding the "Blue Homeland" in exchange for certain concessions... For Türkiye, finding Greece, which sides with Israel (which is facing international criticism), is an inevitable opportunity...

@neolatyno There is no such thing as universal international law. This only applies to the benifactors. The EEZ is European. Türkiye didn't sign the UNCLOS rue to these borders. But if you look at the EEZ of Greece, it is fully logical that it is ridiculous towards Türkiye.

Greek islands and Cyprus already have EEZ rights under international law. Passing legislation and drawing maps changes nothing. Anyone could claim the whole Mediterranean on paper, but respect is what makes Europe work today: and Turkey’s plans show once again it’s not European.

@HarrisSamaras @FiratKozok @SelcanHacaoglu @ictinus_x @MariosKaratzias @HellenicLeaders @HellasJournal @JSchanzer @ShayGal84 @failosK @cirithungol21 @johnbaltzois @KalenteridisSav This is a clear example of how 'international' law is applied unequally internationally. With the NATO membership of both countries, this issue should have been fairly resolved ages ago. But Türkiye isn't considered part of the western 'international' law.

Two Turkish journalists working for Bloomberg, @FiratKozok and @SelcanHacaoglu, attempt to whitewash Turkey's revisionism and expansionism - and it is not the first time. For one, Turkey's so-called "contested" waters are with Greece, Cyprus, Syria, Lebanon and Egypt. Desperate after the repetitive defeats of Turkey's "contested" waters stratagem, alias "Blue Homeland" or "Mavi Vatan", e.g., in Cyprus (ratification of EEZ between Cyprus and Lebanon) and Libya, Ankara is flexing "muscle" and barking at the moon. [x.com/HarrisSamaras/…] Re the two Turkish journalists of Bloomberg, they neglected to also mention in their paragraph about Cyprus that Turkey has been condemned both by the UN and the ECHR for its invasion of Cyprus, the occupation of part of Cyprus and its attempt of establishing its rogue puppet state in the occupied part of Cyprus. | @business #Turkey #MaviVatan #Greece #Cyprus #Syria #Lebanon #Egypt bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

@ottomanenglish Perfect map to show a war doctorate currently disguised as 'international' (Western European) law. +An EEZ border has no rights with regards to a country that is not part of that treaty.

Provocative move from Greece: If Türkiye passes the Blue Homeland law, we will sign an EEZ agreement with Southern Cyprus.

@JGrant5291453 Correct. Because they treaten to do so while those island aren't allowed to be militarized according to the treaty between Greece and Türkiye. Türkiye is allowed to do so on their mainland shores. So Greece is breaking a treaty while Türkiye is not.

Turkey has stationed just on the opposite shore of the Greek Islands the largest landing fleet in Europe and one of the largest in the world, yet it “complains” that Greece “militarizes” its islands.

@EmerreArgentina @stats_feed The whole EV is full of genocidal shits. Why pick on 1?

@stats_feed The genocidal state of Turkey trying to boycott a country? Hypocrites

@ottomanenglish Didn't Russia demonstrate that such a missile can even be launched without a war head. And this analyst uses the words 'can't', while Russia demonstrate otherwise. The type of war head has nothing to do with the launching mechanism and range

Greek analyst Ioannis Theodoratos ; ''You can't launch a missile with a range of 6,000 kilometers just to hit a neighborhood. You can't launch it with a conventional warhead; it requires a nuclear warhead. They won't tell us this, but they must have obtained it from Pakistan."

@otokyo Put a leash on him and you dont have to choose.

If you're right-brained, you'll see a cat. If you're left-brained, you'll see an octopus. What do you see?

@jesseklaver De politiek is hier voornamelijk de oorzaak van.

Vuurwerk gooien, mishandeling van een boa, extreemrechtse relschoppers. En nu deze explosie. Dit is niet normaal. De politiek moet zich hiertegen uitspreken. Dit is niet het Nederland dat we willen zijn. nos.nl/artikel/261390…
