Turkish Phoenix & American Titanic
Democracy in Türkiye and America are going in different directions. In the former, it is rising with nationwide or local elections. In the latter, with the January 6th plot, it no longer floats.
Türkiye strives to become a democratic country since it was founded in 2023. Unfortunately, the West that imposed the “democratic” regime on the fledgling republic had other ideas. Democracy was an instrument to control Türkiye which recently came to a swift end. From now on, there is only the Turkish Phoenix & American Titanic irony to worry about.
DOUBLE MEANING OF DEMOCRACY
In the West, we think there is a double meaning for “Democracy”. One is practiced among the Western Alliance partners. The other belongs to the so-called “Authoritarian” regimes of the East.
Rightly so, the word “Democracy” had a differing meaning and application. North Korea of today is, China of the 20th century or the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR) were good examples.
However, let’s not be too gullible! Democracy in the West or in the East did not come as a natural phenomenon. American hegemony imposed it to the world in the twentieth century.
America prospered with Democracy in the twentieth century. The rest either lived within this hegemony or outside. In either case, their lives were good to bad compared to America. Türkiye got the worst of it.
Turkish Phoenix & American Titanic
There is a simple reason why to call “Democracy” now, Turkish Phoenix & America Titanic, respectively. In Türkiye, democratic principles today function as they should be. In America, they no longer do in some states, for sure less so in Wash DC.
In Türkiye, since 2002, there have been “democratic” elections like they used to be in America. According to some, since 1992, “democratic” elections ceased to exist in America. Between 1949 and 2002, in Türkiye, people were not sovereign.
Mainly American neocons, together with their Soviet counterparts, did not allow Turks to be free and “Democratic”.
They ruled the “Bi-Polar” world of the “Cold War” era with coup d’etats until 1980s.
Since the dismemberment of the USSR in 1991, American neocons and their “Globalists” cohorts did not stop. Türkiye was too important. They could not have let Türkiye apply “Democracy” that was really Democratic.
Hijacked Democracy in Türkiye
American military and economic might arrived at Türkiye in the mid-1940s. There were 1960, 1972, and 1980 coup d’etats to “correct” the will of the people in Türkiye. They were instigated mainly by American agents by their public admissions.
Since 1992, when Globalists joined the rest of the “Neocons”, the attempts to interfere with Democracy in Türkiye continued. However, Clinton, Bush, Obama, and Biden failed each time and America lost face in the international arena.
Sinking Democracy in America
Meanwhile, in America, Democracy also started to falter simultaneously in 1992. Democrats took the reins. Ever since, they control executive and legislative branches with absolute authority. Disappearance of Democracy meant economic slowdown.
When Liberals/Globalists came to power, America was controlling 26 percent of the global GDP. Today, it controls less than 15 percent. California and New York make up 25 percent of the economy in America, the sole superpower of the world.
Turkish Phoenix & American Titanic
Let’s go fast forward and put into perspective three elections. Two of them are in Türkiye. One took place in May 2023. The other will take place in March 2024. The election in question in America does not have a “November” date. It is better called “January 6th”. That is when the American Titanic went deep into waters for good.
Phoenix Rising from May 2023 to March 2024!
The “Phoenix” is rising in Türkiye. Presidential election took place in Türkiye in May 2023. Türkiye did not allow the American fiasco of January 6th to repeat there. Entire Western Alliance, including America, under the spell of Globalists were hoping for. Much like January 6th, no one can tell now what was transpiring behind doors if any.
In Türkiye, presidential and mayoral elections do not take place together. Türkiye will hold “local elections” in March 2024. Now that Erdogan’s regime is fully in charge in Türkiye after 22 years, it is time to win one more for the “Gipper”. Why the “Gipper” analogy? Only because March 2019 election there smelled like January 6th.
Excavating the American Titanic on November 5th?
Excavating the American Titanic on November 5th would mean two things for America. One, there will not be January 6th. I am not saying MAGA was guilty or not. I am also not saying the same for Nancy Pelosi either. She was the Speaker of the House. Maybe now trust can be established on Nov 5th to save Democracy in America.
Two, if there will be a regime change in the Oval Office, Donald J. Trump will do the right thing. First, one would hope he would not persecute his opponents like they persecuted him since 2016. Second, he will continue with America First and stop running US foreign policy objectives with illegal proxies, led by Neocons and Globalists alike.
Turkish Phoenix & American Titanic
The Turkish Phoenix long regenerated or is otherwise born again. Unfortunately, the American Titanic has also long sank and excavation will bring up nothing but lessons.
