I’m telling you, weird things are going on in Turkey with their new ‘president’ when people are openly confessing their gay love for him:
AL-MONITOR – The Turkish media were rocked on May 15 by the words of the media mogul Ethem Sancak, who bluntly declared his love for President Recep Tayyip Erdogan in a TV interview. Sancak said, “While working on his campaign to get him elected prime minister, from my hometown Siirt, I met him. I saw his honesty and courage. I saw his opposition to oppression, his ability to protect the victim. The more I saw him, I fell in love [with him]. To be honest, during my days as a leftist, I could not understand the love between Mevlana [Rumi, the poet] and [his companion and spiritual guide] Shams al-Tabrizi. As I got to know Erdogan, I realized that such a kind of divine love between two men is possible. When I [first] declared my love to him, I was already among the top 20 on the Forbes’ list. I did not need to wait for any favors by holding on to Erdogan’s coattails.”
He fell in ‘divine’ love with Erdogan? Wow. Even some gay fashion designer couldn’t believe it:
The outspoken fashion designer, and LBGT activist Barbaros Sansal tweeted, with a colorful photo, “I have been a gay man for 50 years. I have never seen a gay affair like this.”
The interesting thing is Sancak made these comments in a TV interview on one of his stations with a host who worked for him, who was interviewing him so he could clarify some previous controversial comments he made to Erdogan:
The TV host tried to make sense of it all, as Sancak was obviously trying to clarify why a few days earlier at a rally in Rize he had gone on the record as saying, “An Arabic proverb says, ‘May my parents be sacrificed for you.’ I say to Erdogan: May my mom, dad, wife and children be sacrificed for you.”
As Walid Shoebat points out, this wasn’t just some Arabic proverb, but a sacrificial oath that was only given to the Prophet Muhammad.
Sancak’s comments illicited criticisms not just from Erdogan’s opponents, but from devout Muslims as well who accused Sancak of replacing the prophet of Islam with Erdogan:
Some conservative pundits argued that Sancak has substituted Erdogan for the Prophet Muhammad. The leader of the conservative Nationalist Action Party, Devlet Bahceli, echoed similar sentiments May 15 and commented further on extreme forms of dedication to Erdogan. Bahceli said, “They claim it is divine to touch Erdogan. They almost declared him a prophet. They called Erdogan ‘the messenger of God.’”
As these criticisms suggest, this is happening all around Turkey, not to just one man:
As controversial as Sancak’s statements are, he is neither the first nor the last to publicly reveal affection for Erdogan. Indeed, a day after his comments, an Erdogan supporter waiting for the president to appear at a rally said to a news crew, “I would bite Recep Tayyip Erdogan and lick him.” His comments reminded some people of an incident during the 2013 Gezi Park protests, when in an interview at a rally an Erdogan supporter, after cursing the opposition, declared herself and those in the crowd the “hair on Erdogan’s bottom.”
Biting and licking Erdogan? I have to give that another ‘wow’. I’ve heard many fans say many things about the ‘beloved’ Obama, but never this kind of stuff.
Here is video of the woman suggesting that Erdogan fans are the ‘hair on his bottom’:
I’m telling you, this isn’t normal and even the author can’t figure it out:
After 13 years of successful rule, Erdogan has doubtless become an idol for millions in Turkey. Yet, why would people, from the extremely rich to the rather ordinary, express such intense loyalty and dedication to the man?
As we’ve discussed before, Erdogan certainly acts god-like, considering he can’t be criticized without the criticizer being thrown in jail. And now it appears that a segment of his followers are treating him as a god.
As I’ve said, while we don’t know who exactly the Antichrist will be, right now all signs are pointing in his direction.
Also, considering the Turkish elections are only a few days away, this is a very important read. So go read it already.
