Erdogan's civilizing policies in North Syria

. .
All states are artificial depending how you look at it.

Quite so. Less than a thousand years ago England was an artificial hotch-potch of immigrants - Saxons, Celts, Angles, Danes, Jutes - artificially lumped together by a Frankish dynasty. Till the late 15th / early 16th century English language was not even used in court or by the aristocracy. The first English bible was not printed till the 17th century despite printing being around for over a hundred years. And till the 18th century Britain was two political entities (England and Scotland - not to mention Wales).

Similarly, till the mid 19th century Germany was a collection of 27 distinct political entities - much like the princely states of British India.

By these standards I would say that Syria, Iran, Turkey, India, Pakistan and China are less artificial - inasmuch the vast bulk of their inhabitants have long ties to their nations.
 
. .
Yes, Syria(just like many artificial Arab states in the region ) was an illusionary country we (France and Britain) created anyway and placed the current Assad dynasty in Power. It was never meant to be , we drew imaginary lines and united/brought together people who have nothing in common under a "state/country" depending on which colonial power ruled these territories. Seems nature is simply correcting the mistakes we did. The same thing happened in South Asia as well , where we brought different ethnic groups who have nothing in common under British India , no surprise after we left all these groups (Pakistan, Bengladesh seceeded from this imaginary created country we left behind, and many other separatists groups are still vying/fighting for independence or at least autonomy to this day). In this regard I agree, our past actions are to blame to some extent. :(

Hopefully, Syria an be divided accordingly at least for long lasting peace and stability in the country. If there are majority of a group/people who don't want to be part of a country, then they have the right to be free to do so or at least have a large enough autonomy to make their own decisions/self ruled. :)


Where are you from originally then bro? I thought you were South African ? Are you ethnic Arabic Jew/Lebanese descendants who emigrated south ?

Syria/Assyria was a Country predating all the rest. Oldest inhabited city in the world. UK/France didn't even exist when they had the Assyrian Empire 1200BC.

We conquered all 5 empires including Assyria and ruled an Empire when Rome was a hilltop town and enslaved greeks including Mecedonia for centuries, birthplace of Alexander, whom we also killed and whos praise of every iranian being equal to an Alexander is kept by you in the british musium.

Your ancestors swung tree branches according to the diaries of Roman Generals that colonized England. I wish the Celts another Iranic tribe had wiped you off, you did then get invaded by the Iranic Tribe, Saxons/Germanics.

you backed the saudi wahhabi islamic terrorist families back in the 18th century against the ottomans empire.
thus modern day syria.

where you supply the biggest army of islamic scumbags like anjem choudry and other jihadist swine thanks to your soft rules and encouragement of wahhabi islam.

the stone hinge is iranian property because ummmm...the stones were brought from iran, iranian properties include the moon, the north pole, the stars and the sun.. by reading this line you are also iranian property now..bow. lol :enjoy:

Only a Multiverse in Ottoman Infinity.

WoW the wole galaxy loool.

Umm... yes. I'm Iranian. What's that got to do with it? AFAIK, Iran didn't go around invading other countries trying to change their culture, setting up schools taught in Persian, trying to urge provinces to separate from it's own country...

Iran is ensuring it's security, while the Sultan Erdogan is empire building. Yes, it is Turkification. Give me one example since 1979 where Iran was doing Iranization anywhere.

@Sinan I'd like your thoughts on the matter.
It's the seljuqism again they think they should rule to bring back their dead empire!!!!

These people are sick.

Your version is substantially different of the same thing if not worse. Its called fuelling religious feelings or commonality. Example Iraq. You are using the Shia's there for your own gains, for Iranian national interests, thus you are trying to create a ''freindly'' or puppet government.

Example Afghan and other Shias- You are using them in the name of religious sect or religion to fight for your national interests.

This might not be called Persianification or Iranification but its the same thing or much worse.
Your regime use terrorism to destabilize neighbor countries like Syria and Iraq to find away to step in killing innocent people for stupid dreams.

You'll never be able to have neither Aleppo nor Mosul and trust me you'll leave with empty hands the only thing you going to get some dead bodies and shame with them.

Did you know, "Paradise" is also Iranian...

No, Not kidding, Really...
The Word itself as well as the concept.

Therefore we also own the heavens. Next time you see something, its likely Iranian Property.

There is hardly anything more pathetic than a bunch of utopic Persian nationalists. Hardly any rational person gives any serious importance to ancient historical events. These are just pretty stories to be told, and should remain as a "hobby" at best. That explains why "history" isn't really a good major at any college. It is just too much of a focus on what has happened, as opposed to what will happen. I don't know anything about the history of S. Korea, Singapore, or Japan, but I do know what their grades are. They got an "A" in excellent economic management, rule of law, technology, and well-balanced politics. No wonder why Iran is in a bad shape today as it has been ripped in half between religious fanatics, and irrational Persian nationalists. Most nations had political or imperial peaks, the Arabs did have their own peak with many empires which had more lasting effect. The Greeks, the English, the Turks. Look at what the Spanish and Portuguese empires accomplished in modern history and the tremendous wealth and spoils they have gotten after conquering the new world. Should I also be speaking about the Romans? I am yet waiting to see an Italian guy who brag as much as a bunch of Persian American nationalists. Everybody has moved on from their ancient useless pride, except you guys. Wake up.

I was talking about Persian nationalism as a phenomenon that is causing a huge and unnecessary nostalgic pain to its enthusiasts. They hardly know that this type of nationalism was a state enforced ultra-utopic thinking, which has been influenced by the 19th century EU racial supremacy theories. It was the Pahlavis that spread this irrational ideology to bring the people together under non-relgious umbrella. That contributed to the rise of Khomeni as a reaction. These nationalists don't really relize that they were basically a tool for a political ideology. And instead of modernity and rationalism, that utopia brought one of the worst fanatic regimes that any nationalist could ever imagine.​

your ignorant
your understanding about Iran society is too shallow and you mixed up different concept.

Saudi citizen don't need visa so you can come freely.

When you said that I am ignorant, then you should in return state your counter argument. Travelling to Iran is somthing I am totally not interested in even if there are no visa restrictions.
