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.

Many people have heard of the BATTLE OF KOŠARE, but have you heard of the HEROIC DEFENCE OF THE SERBIAN ARMY ON PAŠTRIK? On this day, exactly 27 years ago, on Mount Paštrik, 15 km from Prizren in Kosovo and Metohia, the Serbian army confronted a ground attack by the KLA which was supported by NATO aviation and the Albanian army. During 40 days of relentless fight, Paštrik was the scene of epic battles until 14th June. NATO used everything even strategic aviation and carpet bombs but Serbian heroes did not give in. They stopped the enemy’s advancement into Kosovo and Metohia, defending every inch of the sacred Serbian territory. The enemy paid a terrible price with losses 20 times bigger than ours. Paštrik was not just a battle it was a proof that freedom does not surrenderer. The world saw this, and the greatest world media wrote about the feat of the Serbian army. Today, on this sacred day, we pay tribute to the heroes who laid down their hearts on the altar of the homeland! 🇷🇸
