Erdogan in Bosnia: “Are you ready to demonstrate strength of European Turks? Are you ready to give an Ottoman slap?”

May 21, 2018 12:30 pm By Robert Spencer

“Are you ready to demonstrate to the whole world the strength of European Turks? Are you ready to give the terrorist organisations and their local and foreign henchmen an Ottoman slap?”

Of course, by “terrorist organizations” Erdogan means the Kurds and others whom the Turks are targeting. But what does he mean by “an Ottoman slap”? In my new book The History of Jihad From Muhammad to ISIS, you can find out in detail. Get the full and appalling story of how the Ottoman Empire, the last caliphate (unless you count ISIS), menaced Europe for centuries, trying repeatedly to subdue it utterly, and holding much of Eastern Europe under harsh oppression for most of its lifetime. When Erdogan uses this term, he is calling for savagery and bloodshed, the likes of which have not been seen in Europe since the Ottomans went into decline after their defeat at the gates of Vienna on September 12, 1683.

“‘Are you ready to give them an Ottoman slap?’ Turkey’s Erdogan calls on Europe’s Muslims to support him as he declares he will protect them in their fight against discrimination,” MailOnline, May 21, 2018 (thanks to Inexion):

Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan has called on Muslims across Europe to support him as he delivered a fiery address to around 15,000 people in Bosnia on Sunday.

He announced he will expand Turkey’s state news agency’s coverage in Europe to hit back at ‘propaganda’ published about Muslims, and urged European Turks to improve their power by gaining places in parliaments across the Bloc.

‘Are you ready to demonstrate to the whole world the strength of European Turks? Are you ready to give the terrorist organisations and their local and foreign henchmen an Ottoman slap?’, he said, while rallying against his critics, including the PKK Kurdish guerrillas.

Erdogan also took a swipe at European countries that refused to let him campaign on their territory, as he urged expatriate Turks to vote for him and his ruling AK Party in elections next month.

The presidential and parliamentary polls on June 24 will see Turkey switch to a powerful, executive presidential system that was narrowly approved in a referendum last year.

Erdogan sees himself as a ‘protector of Muslims in former Ottoman dominions,’ Janusz Bugajski, a senior fellow at the Center for European Policy Analysis (CEPA) told the Stockholm Center for Freedom.

‘As European Turks you have always supported us by a wide margin. Now we need your support again in the elections on June 24,’ Erdogan told a rally in a Sarejevo sports hall, where supporters waved Turkish and Bosnian flags….

    Erdogan should be removed from EU. The man is a menace to freedom

    • mortimer says

      Yes, Erdogan is stirring up World War III. He can be removed if Turkey’s financial and political leaders decide that he must go. Erdogan should be given the opportunity to leave the country and live in Soddy Barbaria or face a coup.

    Erdogan also said: “European Turks must show their strength to the whole world. You need to be in those parliaments instead of the ones who betray OUR country.”

    Erdogan campaigns in other countries for Turk votes among the “citizens” and asks them to seek political power FOR TURKEY. What the hell is a “European Turk”?

    It seems that allowing dual citizenship is undermining Europe and encouraging a parallel society that acts on behalf of other interests. Some EU nations were wise enough to keep Erdogan from campaigning while the EU leadership was too incompetent to nip Erdogan’s bud.

      May 21, 2018 at 5:33 pm

      It isnot dual citizenship all turks by being born of turk parents even in foreign country. People of Bikini Island who cannot return to it due to usa nuclear weapon testing vote for than mayor and city council matter where in the world they are.

    My father fought these barbaric bastards during World War 2, while they (The Turks) were aligned with Hitler’s “3rd Reich” (See Grand Mufti and the UNHOLY alliance with Hitler)

    Nothing changes. Nothing! They are still at war with civilization. They ALL have been for 1400 years, and counting..

    This brutal and barbaric geopolitical Islamist war machine, masquerading as a “religion of peace”, and hiding behind the “civil rights” protection of the countries in which they have come to reside, including the United States, are playing out their 1400 year game plan and strategy to a tee..

    They never build anything. They destroy and consume everything and everyone in their path toward world domination. …Sounds very Hitler-esque doesn’t it? And, THAT, my friends, was a perfect match made in hell in the late 1930’s, and THAT continues today.. …They are very much like parasitic locusts..

    Don’t let the suit and tie fool you. These “humans” are the worst of life..

    Nothing changes!

    Nothing!

      Bob Carillo, you are confused about WWII and Turkey.

      Turkey remained neutral until the final stages of World War II and tried to maintain an equal distance between both the Axis and the Allies until February 1945, when Turkey entered the war on the side of the Allies against Germany and Japan.

      Turkey traded with Germany, but FOUGHT with the Western Allies.

      • Brian hoff says

        There is than alternate history where Hitler didnot invade russia. But insteas strengthen the Africa corp so it took the suez cannel while germany airborne troop took malti and Gil from the UK spain enter the war on the side of germany an got gil back. Then the germany form than army middle east and asia invade the holyland from the north and south. Turkey enter the war on germany side and gey some land back from uk control of one island. Next they occupy arbaic instudeind SA.. Next they take Iraq and Iran by late 1952 churchill is remove from office and the UK sue for peace.

    Most Turks are the offspring of RAPED, captive, enslaved European women. Erdogan is clearly descended from RAPED slaves. Is he proud of that?

    • Ren says

      May 21, 2018 at 11:17 pm

      Erdogan is certainly a proud descendant from RAPED slaves the same way he is proud of his bastard prophet Muhammad.

    I look forward to the revival of Zarathutra’s path in Arabia and West Asia.
    Osho, one of the 1000 makers of the 20th century stated that in about 500 years, “Thus Spake Zarathustra” by Nietzsche will become the new bible of the world. Kurds are starting to go back to their ancestral roots – Ancient Yezidi faith is also one of the Kurdish religions. Once people honestly examine their ancestors religions and lifestyles, Islam will fail. True religion is liberating and creates health, wealth, prosperity and genuine enduring peace as well as excellence in all fields of human endeavour – Islam creates eternal enmities between peoples and is spiritually hollow and morally bankrupt. Islam: stealing land gold and women for 1400 plus years – this is not a legitimate path to God – Islam destroys ethnic integrity. What I find horrifying is jihadists actually boast about the misery they have created over 1400 plus years and counting- truly diabolical. I am optimistic jihadism will fail because Islam is rooted in falsehoods.

    Mr Spencer, you are just maligning Turks and Erdogan, while Turkish economy is fastly growing surpassing most of mithraist Christian western countries. By year 2023 Turkish economy will surpass that of all EU nations. That is the real fear by EU members to admit Turkey into the club. Turkey does not need EU membership to thrive.

      • Manos says

        May 23, 2018 at 6:17 am

        Ibrahim, to hell with Turks are civilised, Turks are a satanic race from Mongolia. What has Turks contributed in this world?. They only thing they have contributed is raping, pillaging, ethnic cleansing. Islam, Intollerance, Slaughter, looting, Arson and Molestation. As from Trump, he is a W@nker. The only true politician to stand up to radical Islam is Bosnian Serb Leader Radovan Karadic. I hope all Muslims slaughter each other. And I enjoy the Kurds targeting Turks and Mosques in Satanic Germany. We orthodox Christians will get our revenge on you Turkish scum, for the genocide crimes committed on the Greeks, Assyrians, Armenians, Serbs, Romanians. Thank God Israel has woken up and is no longer allied with Satanic Turkey. And I thank God the good relationship and military exercise between Greece, Israel, Cyprus, Romania, Serbia. Judgement day will come.

    As I Serb I can only say that after 600 years this is nothing new coming from the Turks. Unfortunately, the Turk following Ataturk started a civilizing and secularizing process but it never bore fruit and now we have a modern day Sultan in Constantinople.
