The Ottomans may have OCCUPIED Jerusalem for 400+ years, but it was never THEIRS. Just ask the Arabs and Egyptians that fought with the British to end rule of the area by the Ottomans.
Even now the major Sunni states of Arabia and North Africa are opposing Erdogan’s insertion of Turkey into conflicts and disputes in their neighborhood.
If Erdogan sounds like any recent historical figure in laying down outrageous claims of “ownership” of others lands, it would be Adolf Hitler.
Jan. 12, 2015....Erdogan began displaying his myth-making narratives that fit 'his' political and historical vision, representing the military costumes of the 16 states founded throughout history by Turk, on the palace staircase representing the Ascension to power and authority.......So he's been at this for awhile.
Erdogan sees himself as 'the Great Sultan' Of the Middle East...
