America: The land of missing children

During my life in America in the nineties, I would constantly make comparisons.

Back then, there were practically no shopping malls in Turkey.

Infrastructure systems like roads and bridges were more modest.

Schools were similar.

Private television stations, news, sports, culture channels, and documentary channels caught my interest.

My bills would arrive at home by mail, and I would make payments with checks I wrote—even though I wasn't a businessman or anything—whereas in Turkey at that time, we would make payments by waiting in lines.

I would watch the number of international students at the university with amazement.

I could write dozens more details.

However, I remembered a missing child problem that I still cannot fathom when I recall it, especially after the Epstein files were spilled out.

Today, I also followed the Epstein case from foreign sources.

The man had established the world's most systematic pedophilia network.

Looking at the news, I remembered a catalog of pictures featuring missing children that I used to find in the mailbox I opened to get my bills.

On the catalog, which contained pictures of adorable children, mostly girls, it would say “missing child.”

These catalogs would arrive constantly.

Hundreds of illustrated catalogs.

I couldn't believe it.

I used to think they were fake catalogs.

Then, when I looked at the numbers, I encountered reports that 300 thousand children go missing every year.

A figure that does not exist in other countries of the world.

It is clear that there is a systematic operation behind these perverted activities in America.

America, which dazzles with its technology, lays down the law with its powerful military infrastructure, and makes us envious with its universities, has apparently become the land of missing children.
