The flag is red not black but the message is the same as Islamic state al qaeda all is supported and encouraged by the Turkish Government of Recep Tayyip Erdogan because he wants the return of the Caliphate just as much as they do he sees it as getting back the empire that the Europeans took from his predecessors so he has built the strongest army in the NATO Europe alliance and the middle east. He is wiping out all the democratic more liberal western gay, lesbian, transgender, women liberation, and human equality groups like the Kurd's as fast as he can and is looking to take over when the west defeats Islamic state for him. It seems to me the man is a menace to the world far more then ISLAMIC STATE or Saddam Hussein ever was. he is attempting to hold the world to ransom

I have not forgiven the Turks for the genocide of the Armenian people or the fact that Turkey sided with Hitler and have in my experience generally a very fascist approach to life in general brought about by the fact they where a christian country at the heart of the christian empire in fact they where the founding city and state of Christianity the Omphalos or navel of the world made a new taking the title from the city of Jerusalem and the state that is now Israel, who took the title from the city of Delphi in Greece. Then the Muslims sack the city and took it over as the center of the Ottoman empire. we are all still living with the consequences and Turkey is still a threat to the european way of life and the freedom of spiritual practices and the rights and freedoms of the individual Until they truly achieve a secular society but then that is true of many a state around the globe The world is going to have to be a secular society if the human race is to survive otherwise we will keep trying to wipe each other out as far as I can see religion and religious ideas have no place in government.

Meanwhile here in the United Kingdom or should I say the Disunited Kingdom without a coup and no thing like the mayhem and blood letting in Turkey we have let ourselves be taken over by a cooperated quasi military state something along the lines of heading towards the Robo-cop scenario if the vicars Daughter and her share holding hubby/first husband get to stay in power for long . Mean while in the UNITED STATES Hillary Clinton is looking like the lesser of two evils but still the Trump may get in generally the world order is looking more shabby corrupt and lacking a moral compass by the day.

A Band From Beirut Speaks To Tragedy In Orlando

Brexit was against democracy

The British vote to Brexit the European Union was in My view  against democracy in a large part . We live in a Democratic dictatorship this is a process we have been process developing in the Unite Kingdom since the time of  Magna Carta. AS it serves the class elites very well and keeps them in power no matter how you vote.

We in Britain Live Under a democratically elected  oligarchical dictatorship.
In that ! 
We get the chances to vote every 5 years now by act of Parliament our governments are now 5 years in length. This we are told is because less time  is insufficient for a government to put  in place the reforms that we allegedly vote for as the party manifesto. Though no one as far as I am aware ever consulted the British Public on the matter  of manifestos ?  You are dictated to as to what choices you can have that you can vote for . A true Democratic system would have representatives voted for by the local people with a mandate from those local people and would represent their interests and form alliances with who ever held the same views as them and this is in effect what the European Parliament members actually do they form alliances with like minded alies in the European Parliment a far more democratic process than our own ,

Once in Power with a majority of seats but not necessarily the majority of votes as the seats for party members of Parliament are voted for on a constituency basis and there for it is possible and often the case that over all the party may not have the majority of votes but they may still have the majority of seats as it all depends on turn out of voters in each constituency  so you can get a government that the majority of the people did not vote for . hence the Scottish Independence debate not a single conservative member in the house of commons from a Scottish constituency but they are still ruled over and subject to the dictates of a conservative goverment .

Similarly so with the in or out of Europe vote if it had been a members election by seats for  The in or out party then we would be out as the number of seats that voted in would have been higher than the number of seats that voted out. though in his case the majority of votes where for out by 1.8 million though this was from a nation of around 65.1 million people as of the 2011 census those foreign nationals who live and work here from the Eu and other country's round the world did not get the right to vote neither did  any one who had lived abroad for more than 15 years.

Personally I would have thought it was much more of a Democratic vote if all tax payers in the Unite Kingdom had been registered to vote regardless of where you came from if you pay for the upkeep of the country then you should have a say in the economic out come of the in or out of the free trade zone of the EU.  The immigration debate should not have entered into the equation at all..

The dumbing down of the education system by the Thachrite agenda that was continued under new Labour social and political history of the united kigdom was removed from the curriculum by Mrs Thacher and the idea of no such thing as society and the individualisation of every  person as a single entity and hence the break down of any traditional culture of unity was forced on the population as she and her government went to war on the working classes to destroy them so as to produce what she called a class less society. a process continued by the new labour program has produced an under class disenfranchised and with no faith in any type of democracy and with no mechanisms to understand the political need for representative democracy in effect the vote was popularised mob rule spurred on by fears of the others in the form of immigration and stoked by the right wing and nationalist tendency's . who prefer to divide and rule. Now at this point when if the priminster is going to step down as he says he is surely we should be calling a general election to decide the next step but no we are going to an undemocratically elected leader of the ruling party who will be charged with the task of re inventing the constitution for the nation and will have complete cart blanch over the process and another 4 years almost to complete it in with out and recourse to the will of the British people . to be honest it all makes my blood boil we have been sold down the river by the political elites and we have are getting royally screwed by them and all in the name of the will of the people from a referendum that in truth was just a Tory way to save a party from destruction and that party only has around 149,800 members in it! How democratic is that? Hence the democratically elected oligarchical dictatorship .it certainly is not a true democracy.
