“Allahu akbar” does not mean “God is great,” as the Western establishment media routinely claims, but rather, “Allah is greater,” that is, greater than your god. It is a declaration of supremacy with immense implications for today’s geopolitical situation, given Erdogan’s Ottoman revanchism. This is the historic Greek church (Hagia Sophia) in Constantinople which Erdogan […]
Turkey: Hundreds of children inside Hagia Sophia scream ‘Allahu akbar’
“Allahu akbar” means “Allah is greater,” i.e., greater than your God, and the conversion of Hagia Sophia into a mosque, both in 1453 and 2020, is a declaration of Islam’s victory and superiority, so it is not at all surprising that this would be shouted there. “Extreme provocation in Hagia Sophia: Hundreds of children shout […]
Turkey: Hagia Sophia’s ‘interior looks like a funfair,’ new damage reported
This indifference to the condition of the ancient building could stem from the fact that it was a church, and consequently its ruin demonstrates the judgment of Allah on the infidels (as does its conversion to a mosque): “Just travel in the land and see the nature of the consequences for those who denied.” (Qur’an […]
Turkish Foreign Ministry to UNESCO: Conversion of Hagia Sophia to mosque was exercise of ‘sovereign rights’
Fair enough. But if Turkey feels no sense of responsibility to its non-Muslim minorities, or to the rest of the world, why is it still a member in good standing of NATO and considered an American ally? “Turkey’s provocative response to UNESCO: It’s our right to turn Hagia Sophia into a mosque,” Orthodox Times, July […]
Erdogan says conversion of Hagia Sophia to a mosque is ‘symbol of the revival’ of Turkish civilization
A calculated insult to the tiny remnant of Christians in Turkey is a “symbol of the revival” of Turkish civilization. Erdogan thus suggests that a revived Turkish civilization will subjugate non-Muslims and subject them to the institutionalized discrimination and harassment of dhimmitude. This would be in line with his caliphate dreams, for of course a […]
Erdogan: ‘The re-opening of the Hagia Sophia as a mosque is important, as it is a legacy of conquest’
Erdogan couldn’t be clearer in signaling what is coming, and it should be clear to everyone, but isn’t: in February 2018, he declared his desire to reconquer the lands the Ottoman caliphate once ruled: “Those who think that we have erased from our hearts the lands from which we withdrew in tears a hundred years ago […]

May 29 was the Anniversary of the ‘Last Day of the World,’ the Fall of Constantinople
My latest in PJ Media: Yesterday in Istanbul, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan attended a ceremony in honor of 136 young men who had succeeded in memorizing the entire Qur’an. The ceremony was held in what the International Quran News Agency called “the iconic Hagia Sophia Mosque,” which up until last year was a museum, although […]
Video: Man holds Greek flag near Hagia Sophia, Turks react with rage and violence
The “most vile of created beings,” as the Qur’an calls non-Muslims (98:6), should not be so insolent. They should know that it is their duty to submit humbly to Islamic hegemony (cf. Qur’an 9:29). “How Turks react to the Greek flag near Hagia Sophia? (video),” Proto Thema, May 13, 2021 (thanks to Elizabeth): The website defence-point posted […]
Eid prayers in Hagia Sophia for the first time in 87 years stir crowd with ‘Palestinian’ victimhood propaganda
Ironic to stand in the middle of a symbolic of the triumph of Islam to claim that other genocidal jihadis are the real victims. “After 87 years, Eid prayers resonate in Istanbul’s Hagia Sophia,” Asia News, May 15, 2021: Istanbul (AsiaNews) – For the first time in 87 years, Istanbul’s Hagia Sophia, converted into a […]
