The voters were surprised to see President Erdogan behind him.

69% of Turks living in the Netherlands voted for Erdogan.
Doesn't surprise me, we literally have an offshoot of his party in our parliament.

I don't know if Wagner truly has 25k troops but frankly they could only have 10k and do damage. Too many Russian troops are deployed in Ukraine and I'd imagine some don't even know this is going on yet. Seems like Wagner has the upper hand but at the end of the day if Prigozhin is killed...

The Far Right was supposed to be a kingmaker, helping the Conservatives clinch a majority (in a coalition). A late surge put a stop to that, particularly from Catalonia. Turns out non-Castillian Spaniards are not too keen to see a return of the Far Right anywhere near power.

that's dumb

palestine has hamas because that is all israel allows them to have.

remember how movements like the black panthers and mlk were handled here in the U.S. in their time? did the U.S. allow for community policing and school lunch programs? was peaceful protesting allowed?

the panthers were systematically taken apart with men like fred hampton being assassinated. mlk was also assassinated and was the most hated man in the country in his time.

Doesn't change that they're killing innocents while screaming Allahu Ackbar. They kill innocent people in the name of our religion. If justice is swift, Hamas will die at the hands of Israel and on the day of resurrection their body parts be eaten by devils, and regrow, only for their body to be eaten again, and again, and again as they sit comfortable in the chewed up remains of their own squelched stench and stool. Ameen.
