I sure like the Turkish flag. What is the meaning of the moon and star?

It's our ages old battle flag based on the reflection of the moon and star in a pool of blood.

The pool of blood represented by the red is that of Christians defeated by muslims at the 1448 battle of kossovo. This marked the beginnibg of the Ottoman Empire and all the good things it brought to the world.
