“Today,” said Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Friday, “is Friday, May 29, and we had the opportunity to pray at Hagia. Attendance at Hagia Sophia was also very beautiful, magnificent. Today there was a march from Fatih to Hagia Sophia.” Fatih, or “The Conqueror,” was Sultan Mehmed II, and on May 29, 1453, he did indeed march to Hagia Sophia in Constantinople, which had stood at that time for nearly a thousand years as the grandest church in the Christian world.
His march, however, was not a serene victory march. It was a pitiless display of bloodlust and inhumanity, as the conquering Muslims laid waste to the great city and joyfully continued their orgy of rape and murder even inside the great cathedral itself. Once Mehmed entered, he had a muezzin pronounce the Islamic profession of faith and declared that the great cathedral was now a mosque. After over a thousand years, the Roman Empire was no more.
There is more. Read the rest here.

Look for the treachery, for history repeats itself: the betrayal of a Hungarian European was one of the main reasons the barbaric Turks were able to storm Istanbul. This Hungarian engineer gave the Turks the technology that enabled them to manufacture the artillery that pounded the walls of Constantinople. Today, the same thing is happening in Europe, where Europeans are enabling Islam to take over their continent, but in a peaceful and non-violent way.

Speaking of Erdogan, I’m a tad surprised that his attempt to squelch the Turkish opposition last week backfired

I hope that someday the Turkish squatters will be ousted from Anatolia.
I’d love to visit from whence we came, and see the Hagia Sofia. But not until Erdogan and his minions are long gone.
