Will those claiming ‘oppression started in 1453’ win? Will they establish Byzantium? This is the showdown of the previous millennium… Everybody should watch where they stand.

An extremely foreign wave, an extremely dangerous front is being built against Turkey’s local position, national state mind, enthusiastic social conscious, rediscovery of its historical and political gene, and its comeback in the 21st century with the intellect of all its past empires. 

“Opposition” groups, regardless of the political identities they maintained to date, are gathering under a single roof against this strong wave and return. They are mobilizing to stop Turkey. 

Opposition parties’ political theories are being redefined through codes that are “foreign” to the country, nation, history, and the region. Accordingly, political identities such as left-wing, nationalist, conservative, Islamist are being subjected to a disintegration between the local and foreign-dependent. 

 They were handed PKK, FETÖ’s Turkey map. 

These groups are taking action on the same front as the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK), which is carrying on an open war against Turkey, and the Fetullah Terrorist Organization (FETÖ), which is the U.S. and Israeli intelligence’s Turkey leg. 

They are also acting in cooperation with the intellectual, non-governmental organization, religious, and capital groups that have been designed by pro-Atlantic groups over the decades. 

Strangely, the political opposition that took position against Turkey’s 21st-century stand, suggests nothing other than the FETÖ and PKK discourse. It offers no goal nor future. It draws no Turkey map. 

Strangely, though they appear as political opposition, these groups that are reformatted as a “local front,” are exerting all their energy towards shrinking Turkey, cornering it into a tight spot, while openly carrying on the project to confine Turkey to the Western axis as the world is being rebuilt. 

Look at where we experienced this cunning twistiness… 

Strangely, this political agenda or front’s political discourse is not aligned with the FETÖ/PKK discourse alone; it perfectly corresponds with the U.S. and Europe’s Turkey, region, and world design. 

We experienced this twistiness in the East Mediterranean crisis. We experienced it in the Aegean crisis. We experienced it in Libya and Karabakh. 

We experienced this twistiness in their relations with FETÖ, their partners in the first foreign intervention on Turkey since the founding of the Republic. 

We experienced this twistiness in their partnership with the PKK, which is the biggest foreign intervention aimed at shrinking Anatolia for the last four decades. 

They have a hidden agenda. But we know this. 

Their hidden agenda is not limited to their everyday political discourses. They are working towards. They are trying to exhaust, push, and weaken Turkey with these discourses so that they may pave the way for that big project. 

This is the aim behind their terror of deception and scheming. This is the aim behind the disorder and evil. This is why they leave their political axis without batting an eye, and follow to a tee the instructions received from the headquarters in the West. 

They are taking advantage of all doctrines of the European far-right, the U.S. Neocons, Israel’s far-right, and the global Islamophobic wave. 

They are assuming their role as their extensions in Turkey. They use economic justifications and social weaknesses as excuse, and striking Turkey with these most extreme discourses of the 21st century. 

Those claiming ‘oppression started in 1453’ are taking the revenge of centuries. 

Pay attention and follow them for months, and you will see that they do not say a single “good thing” about Turkey, instead they attack everything that “is good,” produce evil and promote it, while they carry on a systematic plan to cause social psychological breakdown. 

They used the Gezi Park events to break out an ethnic and sectarian civil war through street terrorism. The operation was controlled by the U.S. and European intelligence agencies. 

Those who wrote “Zulüm 1453’te başladı” (the oppression started in 1453, the year Istanbul was conquered by Ottoman Sultan Mehmed) on the walls across Dolmabahçe Palace, were taking the revenge of the past centuries. This is because they saw that Turkey was making a comeback in the 21st century with the statements and claims of those past centuries. 

What they saw is true, and is happening. 

FETÖ called Western troops to Anatolia. These will do the same. 

The same happened in the Dec. 17-25 and July 15 intervention and attacks as well. This time, FETÖ, the organization they built as “conservative,” called to Anatolia Western troops, as a matter of fact, the Crusades. 

The current groups, though, have lost their axis to the extent of calling invasion armies to this land, if necessary. 

FETÖ ringleader Fetullah Gülen, the biggest traitor of our history, had said, “The Crusades were harmless, they were not bad.” This statement and the statement “the torture started in 1453” came from the same headquarters. I leave it to you to decide which history interval of Anatolia this statement reset. 

Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality elections, Byzantine discussion. Photo taken at Sultan Mehmed the Conqueror’s grave! 

Also strangely, the Byzantine discussion was brought forward in the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality (İBB) mayoral election. There was great joy in Europe and Greece; the win was presented as a great victory, and the U.S. ambassador had the audacity to say, “We are watching the collapse of an empire.” 

İBB Mayor Ekrem İmamoğlu posing for a photograph during his visit to Ottoman Sultan Fatih Mehmed the Conqueror’s grave, full of pride, hands tied behind him, was a message. 

That picture frame was seen as a part of the process launched with the Gezi Park events, and continued with the July 15, 2016 attacks, and perceived by vast masses in Turkey as a, “We are here, Mehmed,” message. 

Typical FETÖ tactic from Akşener: İmamoğlu, you are the 'Conqueror!' 

Good Party (İP) leader Meral Akşener presenting İBB Mayor İmamoğlu as “Istanbul’s conqueror,” was the latest striking example of the Byzantine discussion. This presentation, which initially seemed exaggerated, absurd and inappropriate, was a fine-tuning affair. 

Akşener’s presentation perfectly corresponded with FETÖ’s unchanging principle of, “Whatever you do, accuse your enemy of doing it. Associate your enemy with whatever you are against.” We were going back to “the torture started in 1453” statement, the Byzantine discussion. 

The showdown of the last millennium… Everybody should watch where they stand. 

Turkey is carrying on the 21st-century showdown of the political century dating back to 1071, of everything that has happened since 1453. 

Those who are seeking revenge for Byzantine 950 years later, and the conquest of Istanbul 568 years later, those thinking they can stop the new rising era with the alliance they established within Turkey, need to evaluate the last millennium as a whole.  

At a time the West, the U.S. and Europe are in regression, the power shifts in the world are this shattering for the first time in centuries, and Turkey is making an extraordinary power leap, history is going to be against them. 

Byzantium will never be revived again. 

How aware are those in our midst that they are opposing a great nation, a great history with foreign tutelage! 

The Western Roman Empire is collapsing once again in the 21st century. There is great disappointment for those who have a problem perceiving the deep-rooted memory of a nation that wiped out the Eastern Roman Empire from history, its political gene, and its history-making and region-building power. 

Byzantium will never be revived again. 

Istanbul will forever remain Istanbul!
