[Jan_Sobieski]

Watch this guy. He is a great candidate for Gog in Ezekiel 38. He is creating a canal around Istanbul to bypass the Bosporus and the Montreaux Convention which will bring him immense wealth to elevate Turkey’s military…

[ClearCase_guy]

Those NATO countries are always causing trouble or threatening to blow stuff up.

[JimRed]

Is he going full Islam, or just flexing his dictator muscles?

[1Old Pro]

He’s always been a dangerous kook.

[foundedonpurpose]

He’s a nut. Plays both sides and can be trusted by none.

[bk1000]

Haven’t we heard this before? The Mouse That Roared.

[Brian Griffin]

Islam has a rather bloody history.

And so does Christianity.

[Telepathic Intruder]

They still won’t call the Armenian genocide a genocide.

[cuban leaf]

You gotta admit that it would be oddly “funny” to find him double tapped with a not pinned to him that said, “back at ya”.

Eonomic pressure can be very effective...a tourism boycott of Turkey and Turkish Air might get his attention...it certainly will cause massive dissension among his people who live to trade.

[PIF]

West’s progress is built on blood, tears, massacres, genocide, and exploitation but fails to mention that Islam’s progress is built on murder and slavery on epic scales, civilizational destruction, cultural destruction, information destruction, and historical destruction, generally impoverishing the entire human race.

Projection like that, he could be a Democrat!

[Worldtraveler once upon a time]

The quote seems to be “the chapter of the West's dominance is coming to a close.” Given the idiocy of adding a trillion in public debt every three months here, and given the idiocy of the Draghi suggestion for “harmonizing” EU member nations' debt, I'd suggest the notion is less PR and more an observation.

The chapter of Ezekiel you reference ends with "I will" suggesting, like part of the book of Job, that this will be done until such time as "they shall know that I am God / Hashem" (depending on the translation). Given a "turning away" in so many lands, "until such time" seems to be most pertinent.

[The_Media_never_lie]

Erdogan could come here legally, become a citizen and enter the democrat primary in time for the 2028 election. He already has all the democrat talking points down pat!

[kpbruinfan]

Just yesterday I saw a tourism ad for “Turkiye” that was trying to show how welcoming they are. Crazy…

[cuz1961]

NATO IS THE WEST

hes declared malicious intent against his allies

KICK HIS ARSE OUT OF NATO

.

[fella]

NATO?

[cld51860]

Bruh needs a refresher course in the spread of islam.

[Moltke]

Erdogan in 1997 - quoting a poem by the Turkish nationalist Ziya Gokalp:

“The mosques are our barracks,
the domes our helmets,
the minarets our bayonets,
and the believers our soldiers.”

No one should be surprised by Erdogan today.
