The test of the 'White Turks'

Turks have gone through many trials and stress tests throughout various periods of history.

July 15 is at the very top of the thousand-year-old destruction projects.

When you look at the book "One Hundred Projects on the Partitioning of the Turkish Empire (1281–1913)" published by İş Bankası Yayınları, you easily understand that our reaching these days is a blessing from God.

Unfortunately, the 'White Turks' are not performing well in these trials.

They gave the latest one in Çankaya during the last elections.

They made the minister of that era, who put the Turkish army in dungeons, a member of parliament.

Failing to manage their votes strategically, they could not keep the short-legged small-town politician agent in the third spot off the list.

He is not wandering around much these days; he might be with the ambassador who had himself placed in the third spot.

The 'White Turks' have a new test ahead of them.

A test they will take in a region that is among the top seven in the world in terms of both cultural and economic wealth.

The kebab shop test.

The simplest test.

It is much easier to win compared to other tests.

But it is still difficult to succeed.

If they cannot deal with a nouveau riche, spoiled kebab shop owner who so openly insults and curses at the customer base whose capital he is living off of, they might as well sit down and cry.

We are also waiting for the response that citizens from Trabzon, who are not 'White Turks', will give to this snotty kebab shop owner and the kebab shop owner who supports him all the way from Trabzon.

If the 'White Turks', who have lost all their patriotic reflexes, cannot pass this test either, there is no choice left but to say, "May God forgive his sins."
