1492 is remembered in the West for Christopher Columbus landing in the New World and claiming it for the Spanish Empire. In the Middle East, 1492 is remembered for the Turkish Ottoman Empire taking in 150,000 Sephardic Jews being persecuted by the Spanish Inquisition. In the Ottoman Empire and then Turkiye, they spoke "Ladino" at home and in the synagogues.

In the post-WII era, the Turkish and Israeli intelligence agencies cooperated at unparalleled levels along with the US.

After the rise of the Likud Party, Benjamin Netanyahu's blatant rubbishing of the Two-state solution, and the ethnic cleansing in Gaza and the West Bank, this core intelligence relationship has been Humpty-Dumptied.

In the US, headlines would report an Israeli hostage was freed (Yippee!); in Europe or the Middle East the headlines would report "another 20 Palestinians killed by the IDF."

Therefore European, Middle Eastern, and African animosity for Benjamin Netanyahu and Israeli brutality is much stronger there than in the US, as witnessed by the massive labor actions in Italy and Greece, the food flotillas for Gaza, and the efforts to ban Israel from FIFA and Eurovision.

The despicable Benjamin Netanyahu has turned Israel into a Pariah nation and Rogue state, increased antisemitism globally, while inexplicably being applauded by sections of the American population.

Netanyahu Humpty-Dumptied Turco-Israeli relations possibly forever.

Historically, the Turks had assigned special guards to protect the Chief Rabbi of Istanbul.

ABSOLUTE 100% TRUE FACTS ABOUT ABORTION

In the entirety of modern human history, no woman has willingly sought an abortion for a wanted child. Not at 9 hours. Not at 9 days. Not at 9 weeks. Not at 9 months. Not ever. WITH ONE VERY IMPORTANT EXCEPTION

But, in the entirety of modern human history, and for many individual reasons, women have sought to terminate the pregnancy of an unwanted child.

Each reason is as individual as the woman seeking to terminate the unwanted child. Sometimes the pregnancy is a result of rape or ------. But whatever the reason, no law or religious dogma has ever stopped women from seeking an abortion for an unwanted child. Nor will it. Not now, not ever.

ONE VERY IMPORTANT EXCEPTION: The most tragic abortions are for women carrying a wanted child but find out that their personal health is at risk. Or that it is an ectopic pregnancy. Or their chance for a future child is jeopardized. Or, the wanted child has no chance to live outside of the womb.

The last scenario is especially hideous: The prognosis for Potter's syndrome is very poor. Most babies with this condition do not survive beyond birth due to respiratory failure. IOW, the mother holds her newborn child while the child SUFFOCATES TO DEATH IN HER ARMS... AND THERE'S NOTHING SHE CAN DO ABOUT IT BUT WATCH HER BABY DIE A HORRIBLE DEATH. This can go on for up to 45 minutes, sometimes even longer.

These are tragic circumstances that, yes, sometimes only become apparent at close to 9 months. This is a fact, a very tragic fact, but a fact, nonetheless. It is also a fact that an abortion is sometimes the only option available for the woman and her family.

Nothing " NOTHING " you or anyone can say will alter these...
