22 thoughts on “Getting Sultan Erdogan’s Goat”

1. It just occurred to me that both Erdogan and Ataturk have the same attributes: thin and neat. In the western world that means what?

   • It means Hitler? The quintessential “thin, neat” leader. A vegetarian who claimed not to smoke. Fastidious…

2. As an ethnic Greek the whole thought of Turkiye joining the EU and flooding Europe with Muslims truly frightens me. Would Erdogan flood Greece and the Balkans with refugees as part of his agenda to restore the Ottoman Empire. The truth of his real intentions must be revealed. Europe cannot allow this tyrant from blackmailing them with the threat of more so-called refugees. If one looks at the ethnic cleansing of the Greek islands of Tenedos and Imbros you can see what Erdogan has planned. He is not a friend of America! Sad thing is President Obama is in bed with Erdogan, so could a critic of Erdogan in America someday be prosecuted by our legal system. For now the First Amendment protects us but for how long.

   • No, Erdogan is not a friend to America, but then nor is his buddy Obama.
     I have wondered for years as to why the Turks haven’t tried to push the Greeks off Lesbos, Chios, Samos, Kos, Rhodes and all the other smaller Greek islands that nudge the Turkish coast.
     The goat man of Turkey is arrogant enough to try!

   • I understand your feelings. Greeks have suffered enormously from Turkish conquerors. And so did Armenians, Assyrians, Bulgarians, Serbs, Montenegrins… Besides, Turks and their allies Crimean Tatars raided neighbouring countries – Romania, Russia, those parts of Poland and Russia which now became Ukraine, etc. capturing people to be enslaved (including women and boys for sexual slavery) and plundering what they could.

     It can be said that modern Turkey is different, that all this is in the past. But is it? Turkey has never recognised the Armenian genocide (or Assyrian, or Greek, or any other genocides, for that matter). Turkey has never apologised for slavery. In modern Turkey, Kurds and what remains of other minorities, are oppressed. There is no religious freedom to speak of. And militant Islamism is regaining the ground it lost under Atatürk and his successors.

     So, this is the country which Frau Merkel and her comrades in the European political elite, want to accept into the bosom of the European Community. But, of course, it is absolutely necessary – otherwise the EU might be seen as a Christian club – and what can be worse than that?!

3. Erdogan, with the emphasis on the “dog” (since the Charlie cartoon with Merkel has the two of them doing it doggie style) has set into motion the famed Streisand Effect: Tell the world that something bothers you, you being a well-known, arrogant individual, and the internet world will let you know what they think of you.

   Now that we’ve got Erdogan’s number, we know what to do.

4. I wonder if we can deduce anything from the fact that so many dictators, pop singers and actors do not seem to possess enough brain cells to grasp the Streisand Effect?

   As for Merkel’s kow-towing to the despotic Erdogan and his Muslim hordes, what can one say? Turkey, it seems, no longer has to bother trying to join the EU, as the EU appears hellbent on being subsumed into Turkey.

   The only consolation is that if this pathetic, grovelling lunacy continues we may see the ordinary folk of Europe finally realise that the one thing they should never be tolerant of is intolerance. Then may a strong man arise and lead them out of the coming darkness. Let us hope he is both firm and just.

5. Fake Turkish passports to get into the EU?
   I wouldn’t be surprised if Ankara sold real passports to the invaders being escorted out of Europe so that they can turn around and go straight back to Europe along with all the unemployed of Turkey.
   This is unfathomably unfair to the indigenous population of Europe.

6. Erdogan we know is a horny old goat
   who lives in a castle with a very wide moat.
   If you want to get in,
   you must join him in sin,
   else you’ll be tossed to the crocs from a boat

7. RE Turkish passports – just what I was thinking… from July onwards, in addition to masses of Turks, would there be a large number of Turkish passport-holders looking to enter the EU who don’t speak any Turkish? In fact they’d only need to fly into Istanbul with Turkish Airlines (now one of the world’s biggest airlines, with connections to most of the Muslim world), pick up their Turkish passports and fly out again to the EU destination of their choice…

8. I will not be so hasty as to set Erdogan up as the top dog on the pile. He is obviously
   a puppet of greater and more sinister powers. Those who have been planning this
   migrational tsunami for decades now. Those who give orders and the world leaders jump to obey or get deposed by some means or another. Erdogan suffers from the small man with big ideas syndrome – and this will be his downfall. “They” – the power brokers of the world – will use him and then discard him and another, far more despotic and vile, will take his place. Erdogan is loathed in his native land and by Turks who have managed to escape – I know them personally here in Australia – and there are no epithets bad enough with which to describe him and his supporters. Angela Merkel does herself and Germany a huge injustice by having anything to do with this man. But she knows this – only her fear is greater than her integrity and she has given too much ground now to an implacable enemy – and I don’t mean Erdogan. Make of this what you will. We are only seeing the thin end of the wedge here!

9. Germany is now officially a police state.The police are used to crush all criticism ,dissent and protest.

   • The whole Western world – formerly known as ‘the free world’ – is sliding down into soft totalitarianism.

     People and organisations that do not subscribe to the dominant ideology are marginalised, publicly ridiculed, defamed (“naming and shaming”), humiliated, lose their jobs and reputations, in some cases even dragged into court with little chance to defend themselves.

     And all this is presented to the world as ‘democracy’ and ‘freedom’ for universal admiration and emulation.

     • I agree. The Western world is well overdue for a democratic spring.

       • No dissent here, but for that to happen the people themselves must rise up–in millions.

         The only other enablers are the police, who already work for the enemy, and the armies.
         Armies? Where?

         • I think a major problem is that the police and the army have been infiltrated by Muslims.
           Also the army takes it’s orders from the government.If people elect bad leaders e.g Merkel ,Cameron Holland,Rutte the army will merely follows their orders.

           The solution is to elect better leaders.Vote AfD vote ,vote Le Pen ,vote Nigel Farage ,vote Le Pen ,vote Geert Wilders ,vote Trump.

           (I would say vote B.N.P but the British are unable to bring themselves to vote for a party they consider representative of the lower social classes.The snobbery of the British people will be their ultimate downfall.They are addicted to style over substance.They would rather be lead by a traitor with an upper class accent than a patriot with a regional accent.They are too busy virtue signalling to defend themselves from the creeping Islamification of the U.K.)

           I was horrified to see that Merkel ‘s party still has so much support.

           Much is made of the fact that the Nationalist AfD gains and the slight falling off in support for the ruling coalition.But in fact people have not voted as they should. Too few have seen the necessity of voting for change .Too many are content to continue to vote for Merkel and the coalition.Not enough are prepared to vote for the AfD.

10. Perhaps it time for an international Erdogan Poem Competition, first prize; an all expenses paid holiday on the Island of Lesbos.

    • Thanks but I’m not going anywhere near Greece .It’s become the garbage pit /sewer of the world,overrun with Muslim jihadis and all the rubbish they leave behind.

      I saw on a news website that one Greek island had 85% cancellation of tourist holiday bookings this season.The Muslim invasion has destroyed Greece as a tourist destination.

      It’s a great pity.The Greeks are wonderful people and I have holidayed there twice.I’m glad I got to see it before the Muslim invasion ruined it.

      And I am sorry that tourism (Greece’s major source of revenue) has been struck a lethal blow.All my sympathy is with the Greek people.The Greek people do not deserve this .They have been betrayed by the E.U.

      • That was the point of the holiday destination prize. Erdo’s mess.

      • Tourism in Egypt was way down for quite a while. I’m not sure Israelis (one of their main customer bases) feel safe yet.

        For sure, the continent has been deeply affected, but I’m not sure if places like, say England and Ireland, have seen a drop in visitors.

        Americans will be reluctant to leave our shores and called “isolationist” as a consequence.

        • why should I fly around the world when I can drive 100+ miles and enjoy an ocean front resort for a week, the Del on Coronado Island. I could fly to Israel, but I would have the same weather there as I have here without people taking pot shots at me (yet). There is also Glacier National Park (Grand Canyon with water) and killer fishing and awesome scenery. So, why go there and put up with all the ….. when we have it all here. Maybe we will be the hot tourist spot this summer.

          • Agreed. I have the Smokies National Forest if I wanted to drive that far- plus a number of state parks with swimming, canoeing, etc. Nice cabins, too.

            My big summer plan is to visit the state capital and see The Arboretum. We’ll see if my energy holds up.

            Each state has its attractions…and I’ve become more aware of them as I write thank you notes and do a quick wiki search on the town or region of our donors…an immense variety of places. After all these years of looking up areas, I’d love to see parts of Oregon, the Traverse City Michigan cherry festival, the roses in Tyler Texas…and so on. One could visit California from one end of the state to the next and find those six states the referendum wanted to divide it into. San Diego is another world from, say, Muir Woods.

            I don’t think people from Europe understand how huge this place is. They have a thousand years of diversity and culture; we have three thousand miles and a diversity of Europeans-turned-into-Americans…
