When you are buried in a mass grave by an excavator, don't look left or right, look in the mirror

Our professor, Prof. Dr. Barış Doster, in his recent article, explained the relationship and optimization between political financing and urban rent very well.

Since I am not as masterful as Professor Barış, let me write about the subject from a more street-level perspective.

There is a mechanical failure in the human capital of our region.

It is a quite productive pool for recruiting terrorists.

When you mention religion and faith, and add to it, depending on one's inclination, a place to sleep, food to eat, exam questions, job guarantees, academic positions, a catalog bride or groom, and even houris, it is not very difficult to find people to follow you.

Let's look at what these types of people have done in recent years.

September 11, 2001, America

2004 Madrid, Spain

2007 Kings Cross, London

2008, Mumbai, India

2011 Oslo, Norway

2013 Paris, France

2015 Charlie Hebdo, Paris

2016 Brussels Airport

2016 Berlin

2016 Nice, France

2017 Barcelona, Spain

2017 Manchester Arena bombing, England

2013 Reyhanlı

2015 Suruç

2015 Ankara Train Station

2016 Sultanahmet

2016 Kızılay Güvenpark

2016 Istanbul Atatürk Airport

2016 Vodafone Arena

These are some of the results that appear when you type “ISIS bombing” into the internet.

Almost all of them involved a “suicide bomber” built with the model.

What kind of climate exists that allows a person to find the courage to blow themselves up?

A model we were not familiar with before.

Then there is the matter of July 15, 2016, in Ankara and Istanbul.

The children of our region, recruited and nurtured by foreigners, are striking both us and the centers that feed them.

On the other hand, millions of people in the region have been killed by their own people due to civil wars, and a large portion died on the path of migration.

Those called the lucky ones, in the countries they went to as refugees, in exchange for shelter and protein-deficient nutrition “stray dog” trying to live in the corridors of Europe, just like that.

How did we end up like this?

When you look at photos from certain periods, it is not hard to understand how we reached this point.

Photos from the 1960s and 1970s are constantly circulating on social media. When compared to today's photos, one realizes that evolution has been working in reverse.

It is as if there was a more civilized life back then than there is today.

Women who now live inside sacks were, years ago, active in both work and social life.

Ever since the American doctrine dominated the region, the region's civilized people were sent to the guillotine—labeled as godless and faithless just like in medieval Europe—and Neanderthals were supported; from that moment on, evolution began to work in reverse.

The result is also clear.

Countries like Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iran, and Iraq could not resist and have fallen apart.

Turkey is in a relatively better position among the countries in the region.

And that is only for now.

The American doctrine achieved its goal across the entire geography through projects like NATO, the Cold War, and the Green Belt.

Societies have become completely chaotic.

However, it could not fully establish the model it wanted in Anatolia. 

Just as they were about to establish it, the plans made at home did not match the reality of the marketplace.

FETÖ was the most important apparatus of this model.

FETÖ, in order not to be exposed, would put liquor bottles in the trash in the apartment shaft even though they didn't drink, 

If forced to, they would pour cherry juice into a wine glass and walk around with it,

They would immediately add a liquor bottle to their basket when they saw a colleague at the market, 

They did not smoke, 

They did not get angry, 

They were not involved in any criminal offenses, 

As an international espionage network that raised individuals who did not even have the slightest bad habit or a single parking ticket it was the very project of turning Anatolia into Afghanistan.

But it failed.

Official organizations like the CIA, BND, MI6, and MOSSAD want to turn our country into a dump through FETO-style networks and the politics they support with sects.

Our people are resisting, and they are still resisting.

With the Second World War and the subsequent fear of the Russians and Communists, American GIs came to dominate the region.

This dominance mowed down the left and carried the right to 70 percent.

Cults proliferated.

The drugged fools of the religious communities became the primary element of the country.

Members of these communities, who built careers with leaked exam questions, rose to positions they did not deserve.

They advanced under the protection of the 'Johnnies'.

Just as Turkish intellectuals who understood the situation began to warn the citizens,

Ahmet Taner Kışlalı,

Uğur Mumcu, 

Necmi Hablemitoğlu, 

Bahriye Üçok, 

and Muammer Aksoy, all these Ataturkist patriots were murdered.

However, the spread of communication opportunities, the breaking of centralized media power, and the fact that the age of technology usage has dropped to primary school levels not only prevented the collapse of the opposition but also enabled it to rise to 52 percent. 

Supported by foreign-rooted sects, the right-wing voter rate, which was 65-70 percent, fell to 48 percent.

This irregularity in the ratios, of course, did not just corrupt us politically.

In the same way, it corrupted our morality from an engineering perspective as well.

Politics, financed particularly by the added value created by engineering, required more rent-seeking.

The religious communities also liked this profits made through “buy-and-sell” schemes.

Who knows what the late Mayor's son-in-law, a member of a religious community who bought land from the Istanbul Municipality for 30 million and sold it back to the Istanbul Municipality the next day for 300 million, thought about this matter of buying and selling. 

The 10-15 story zoning permits granted for agricultural lands opened for development also enriched these religious communities.

As if the soil bearing capacity was too low, faulty, poor, or prone to liquefaction.

Nobody cared.

The public was focused on rent-seeking.

In fact, these were religious people.

In their teachings, honest earnings and sweat of the brow held a very important place.

For Johnny, however, it was important that the zero-cost espionage organization operated smoothly through zoning rents, without any money leaving his own coffers.

Johnnies were not going to be living in the buildings that were going to collapse anyway.

Religious communities, politicians, and certain priority high-level individuals all became wealthy without working.

From the comfort of their seats.

With a stroke of a pen.

A field worth 1 million turned into a plot worth 100 million overnight.

A large portion of this rent was used by religious communities to fund politics.

And politics, with the public power it obtained, inflated these communities.

Until they were hit by the bomb.

However, the bombs must not have brought us to our senses, as politics and these communities have started walking arm in arm again.

The great screenwriter Sırrı Süreyya Önder, "Watch out for your boys wearing tights" he had warned.

But even Sırrı had not predicted that we would be buried in a mass grave by an excavator.
