Turkey's last hope dies
By Ralph Peters Published July 16, 2016

Friday night’s failed coup was Turkey’s last hope to stop the Islamization of its government and the degradation of its society. Reflexively, Western leaders rushed to condemn a coup attempt they refused to understand. Their reward will be a toxic Islamist regime at the gates of Europe.

Our leaders no longer do their basic homework.The media relies on experts-by-Wikipedia. Except for PC platitudes, our schools ignore the world beyond our shores. Deluged with unreliable information, citizens succumb to the new superstitions of the digital age.

So a great country is destroyed by Islamist hardliners before our eyes—and our president praises its “democracy.”

Where would Erdagon and Islamism be without centuries of consanguinity? I think in Turkey it is still around 30 percent.

Global prevalence of consanguinity

Coincidence? I don't think so.

(Sources of the images are in the links.)

From an Internet source:

"If there are two things that characterize Islamic culture, they are terrorism and inbreeding. The latest research shows that these two things might be closely connected . . . First cousin marriages have been the tradition in many Muslim families for innumerable generations. Such marriages increase the risk of negative mental and physical consequences . . . Risk of mental retardation increases with 400 percent (Proceedings of the National Academy of Science, 1978 “Effect of inbreeding on IQ and mental retardation”). Research shows that the IQ is 10-16 points lower in children born from blood related parents and that abilities related to social behavior and empathy develops slower in inbred babies (Indian National Science Academy, 1983 “Consanguinity Effects on Intelligence Quotient and Neonatal Behaviours of nsari Muslim Children” [pdf]). Such facts might make several pieces fall into place for many people . . . People with low intelligence (because of inbreeding) might also be easier to brainwash with fundamentalist Islam. "

My emphasis.

.. more from same source

Danish psychologist Nicolai Sennels:

. . . close to ninety percent [of the suicide bombers were] suffering from severe illness such as blindness, cancer, missing limbs or leprosy. Many Muslim societies . . . have a low social acceptance of handicaps and severe illnesses . . . being physically handicapped or mentally retarded often leads to exclusion . . . and becoming a martyr might be the only chance of achieving social recognition and honour — if not just a way to end the pain of being socially isolated (which is especially traumatizing in collectivist cultures like Islam). Al Qaida’s use of people with Down’s syndrome might be another unpleasant side effect of the many chromosomal illnesses resulting from inbreeding between first cousins. People with low intelligence (because of inbreeding) might also be easier to brainwash with fundamentalist Islam.

Obama praised this “democratically elected” Islamist Erdogan just as he lauded Morsi’s “election” in Egypt. We saw what happened there. At least the military succeeded in reversing the damage.

This is a very bad development for the U.S. and its allies in Europe, but a big step forward in the march towards the Caliphate. Erdogan will be able to do whatever he pleases now.

Hagia Sophia will be reopened as a mosque within days.

The Ataturk mausoleum will be closed indefinitely for repairs.

Erdogan will be proclaimed Sultan.

"Very,very good point. Nobody will want to travel there."

Correct, and tourism was already in steep decline there before this coup attempt. It's only going to get worse and of course the country's economic outlook will be severely hit.

"Turkey tourism: an industry in crisis 17 June 2016


The main decline is the Russian market, the four-and-a-half million Russian tourists who were coming have fallen in number by around 95%. The trigger was Turkey shooting down a Russian military jet which violated Turkish airspace last November, sparking a diplomatic crisis between the two countries."
http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-36549880

 

"Turkey's tourism industry counts cost of unrest as holiday bookings fall by 50% March 23, 2016

Turkey’s tourism industry continues to suffer as a result of terrorist attacks in the country, with summer bookings down by up to 50% on 2015, according to holiday firms.

The latest attack, a suicide bombing in central Istanbul on 19 March, killed five and took place just six days after a bombing in Ankara that killed 37 people."
https://www.theguardian.com/travel/2016/mar/23/turkey-tourism-industry-summer-holiday-bookings-fall-50-percent

 

"Turkish tourism to see USD 12bn loss this year Mar 22, 2016

Business agents say 2016 has already been “much worse” than the predicted “worst case scenario.”

Once we have a real president and get the military back up to snuff, erdogan wont know what hit him if he steps out of line.

no more fags and fruits and freaks and surrending and spilling guts in 24 hours. Back to same standards for women to get rid of them.

Where did you get that map, please? Does it include Armenia and Georgia?

The Georgians will never give in to the next Turk invasion.

Europe dodged a bullet on this one. If the military (moderate islamists) had won, Turkey would have assuredly been placed on the fast track to full EU membership. Now, with the radical islamists accelerating their control of Turkish society only a bunch of idiots would bring Turkey fully into the EU.... oh, never mind.

Very similar to what 0bama and Hillary attempted to do to Honduras in 2009. They supported the criminal communist president who had been legally indicted by the courts and the legislature in a pure act of due process under their constitution.

0bassturd and Hitlery are always on the Islam and communism side of history.

I googled “caliphate” and clicked on the “images” tab. It’s about the 4th picture which comes up.
