Slavery in the Ottoman Empire was a lawful institution and a significant part of the Ottoman Empire's economy and traditional society. The main sources of slaves were wars and politically organized enslavement expeditions in the Caucasus, Eastern Europe, Southern Europe, the Balkans, and Africa.
Only for the latter, the Africa, just learn your history.......

"Once upon a time, there may have been as many as 3 million blacks in present-day Turkey, but today only 4,500-5000 remain in the Aegean and Mediterranean areas."

African slaves in the Ottoman Empire

TASTE OF THE PAST - Slavery in Islam was a tradition upheld by the Prophet Muhammad and thus carried over into the Ottoman Empire, however, in the times of the Ottoman, slaves were able to gain high status and prestigious positions

Son,

Please don't be deceitful---. There is a difference between indentured slavery & US slavery---. All conquered people were indentured slaves at one time or another---.

By the way----Alexander's army was whipped by Raja Porus in punjab and he had to escape the Jehlum territories---. Things got so bad for his military that to save themselves---they had to escape punjab by ships during high floods in the pujab rivers---. Punjab rivers during high floods were like oceans of water at that time.

Alexander got killed by an arrow shot at him near the city of Tulamba close to the river bank in punjab---.

Wrong

Alexander got killed by an arrow shot at him near the city of Tulamba close to the river bank in punjab---.

I think you should go back and read history again.

İnce and Özdağ have low votes because most conservatives and far right peoples are voting for Erdogan and Bahçeli.. Once they lost this upcoming elections it will be end of their personal careers and parties.. So this %50 conservatives will look for another person to vote and ofcourse they will not go for Kılıçdaroğlu or Ali babacan

If they were dumb enough to keep voting for the same parties for the last 20 years, they will be dumb enough to vote for Babacan. Some might go over to Akşener but that's it.

EU and USA give incredible financial support to liberal and leftist parties like DEVA,Gelecek and Y-CHP.

Deva isn't left or right. It's a CIA front made up of cultists.

They should be investigated and put in jail.

51.6 % of the buildings in the 10 provinces affected by the earthquake were built before 1999, and 48.4 % were built during the AK Party period.

but 97% of the collapsed buildings were built before the AK Party

@dBSPL @LegionnairE @merzifonlu @Dehydrated Trisolaran

I really want your opinion on that shit


Then you know absolutely nothing about this region. I'm telling you again and again and you're stuck talking about the petrodollar.

Answer the questions I asked before telling me whether or not I'm wrong. This is a wider war. It's a war between the West and Islam. The West doesn't want this war going public as it'll endanger their puppets in the Muslim world. So it pretends that the crises in Turkey, Pakistan, Libya, Somalia, etc are all isolated. The reality is that they are linked. That's the idea you are pushing here and i consider you one of the thousands of propagandists employed by the West to misinform the Muslim world about the reality of events. You can convince others with this lopsided argument of yours but not me because I've been studying this region for the past 12 years intensely.

They didn't even try to invade Qatar. They only blockaded it.

You don't know what happened. Do some research.

You don't like Sissi? I don't like you. Bye.

None but a murderer an hypocrite would love Sisi. He's one of the most evil leaders of this generation. But he's helping the West maintain a lid on an angry Muslim population, albeit temporarily.

Oh you think the Saudis and Emiratis hate their governments? They hate their royals? Are you crazy?

Why are the Saudis and Emiratis so afraid of democratic movements when Qatar (also a monarchy) supports such movements.

 

[merzifonlu]

Brovo Erdogan? LOOOL

TOKİ Houses is not a symbol of success, on the contrary, it is a symbol of great failure. TOKİ houses successfully passed the earthquake test due to the strict control applied at the same time as the manufacturing techniques such as raft foundation and tunnel formwork technique. Thats true.

But then the question to be asked is: Why didn't you structure the entire construction industry for large-scale production according to this method? As AKP, you have been in power for 20 years. If you had designed the construction industry to be capable of large-scale mass production, you would have moved half of Istanbul to a newly established city (or citys) by now. Millions of Istanbulites would not have waited for the earthquake by trembling. But you preferred bullshit projects like Kanal Istanbul instead.

IMO the only thing Erdogan has succeeded in is presenting the greatest failures to the ignorant electorate mass of the AKP as if they were the greatest success. The reason for this is that the traditional Elitist Kemalist Regime despised and rudely treated this ignorant mass for 70 years.

 

[Foinikas]

That's the idea you are pushing here and i consider you one of the thousands of propagandists employed by the West to misinform the Muslim world about the reality of events.

Where did I push that idea? You're obsessed with "West vs Islam" and petrodollar conspiracy theories.

You don't know what happened. Do some research.

Sure buddy,sure. Just like your research on the Greek-Turkish relations? Where everything according to you comes down to "USA use puppets to save the petrodollar"? Get out of here. Back to Salafistan.

None but a murderer an hypocrite would love Sisi. He's one of the most evil leaders of this generation. But he's helping the West maintain a lid on an angry Muslim population, albeit temporarily.

Oh because he kicked your favorite jihadi nutcases,the Muslim Brotherhood out of power? Lol

Why are the Saudis and Emiratis so afraid of democratic movements when Qatar (also a monarchy) supports such movements.

If there were no Saudis and Emiratis to uphold your Salafi movements financially,you'd have little to zero influence. You don't want democracy either. You only want democracy as long as it's a hardcore islamist leader in power. Everything else,you will call not tolerate.

Thanks to ERDOGAN who modernized Turkiye in the last 20 years

Turkish construction industry boomed during AK Party between 2002 and 2023

and only 3 % of collapsed buildings were built during AK Party
97% of the collapsed buildings were built before the AK Party

51.6 % of the buildings in the 10 provinces affected by the earthquake were built before Ak Party and 48.4 % were built during the AK Party period.

Other governments 51.6% between 1923 and 2002 = 79 years
AK Party governments 48.4 % between 2002 and 2023 = 21 year


It has quadrupled what has been done in 79 years
from modern buildings to hospitals , from airports to divided roads -high ways
from schools to stadiums , from dams to renewable energy
and many more

ERDOGAN is a gift to Turkish People

What a great leader .. still ignorant CHP electorate babbling here who voting for parties that make donkey statues

I think instead of praising erDOGan... we should praise the SUPERIOR TURKISH spirit and mindset...

Only with great hindsight does great things happen.. We should be grateful that Turkish mindset into construction had changed and is still going to change, and as such, many great things occcur..

a Typical story of SUPERIOR TURKISH MASTER MENTALITY..

MMM-E,you should stop hiding behind your alt account.

Your beloved Erdogan and his government gave construction amnesty and were slow to react in the first 24 hours of the earthquake. The money for the earthquake relief fund were mysteriously squandered. The fires two summers ago showed that what you call "regional superpower Turkiye" under Erdogan,lacked serious means of aerial firefighting. Erdogan's insensitive move to throw packs of tea to people who lost their houses,after the fires,shows a lot.

Erdogan's massive palaces and mansions could have hosted some thousands of people after the earthquake. Yet,your populist leader didn't even offer that.

AKP ministers and MPs were booed when they visited the areas hit by the earthquake.

Your leader said "we will rebuild it in one year". First of all,you can't even remove all the rubble in one year. Second,he can't rebuild the lives of these people and everything they lost.

In the first days,he had blocked twitter to prevent criticism. And that caused problems to people.

Since summer,your leader kept repeating two things: "Mitsotakis doesn't exist for me" and "We will come one night,suddenly".

Now,our government wants to propose for the EU to give financial aid to Turkey for the earthquake.


This is your leader. You wanted him. When you had one of the highest inflations in modern Turkish history,he kept focusing on buying and building weapons,while neglecting the firefighting abilities of the country and legalizing badly constructed buildings.


For months,this is what he said:
