I was on a business trip in Izmir, Turkey. The hotel was very nice. They put me up on the 30th floor for Saturday and Sunday. Sunday morning, 5 AM. WTF? The hillside is covered in minarets. Each one has a huge PA speaker. The cacaphony of yodeling in Arabic ensures you won't be sleeping late. After breakfast, I left the hotel to wander around the city. At noon, the yodeling resumed. This time there were people out in large numbers. Many produced a prayer rug, dropped in on the ground and assumed the position.

Monday morning rolled around. I waited in the hotel lobby, peering down the street. The NATO bus rolled up. Transport to work. A driver and guards front/back with 9mm submachineguns. Others on the bus has "civvies" on with a small backpack. As we arrived at work, many of them disappeared briefly, then appeared in uniform. A very interesting daily routine.

I prepared for the trip by learning as much Turkish as I could master in a couple weeks. In practice, I found lots of English speakers. Some spoke German from work in Germany. The small shop keepers spoke only Turkish. I spoke enough to buy lunch and pay my bill with Turkish Lira. Exchange rate was 8192 TL per USD that weekend. Turkish gold was priced at $300 USD per oz. I hadn't made any effort to learn Arabic before the trip. I still haven't made much progress. It's unlikely that I'll be visiting an Arabic speaking country in the future.

I’d be looking for another job in a different place - without question.

My sister’s business is located downtown Minneapolis. She’s been working remotely since the pandemic began. If they tell her to come back to work in person, she’ll retire.

Imagine what is going to happen to real estate values within earshot of that five-times-a-day cacophony? It has NO place in the USA. Those bastards are taking over inch-by-inch.

Not a city I’d want to call home. Of course I’ve moved many times in my life so it’s not a big deal for me. But still I wouldn’t stay there.

...the call will be kept to 70 decibels or less

70 dB is pretty much being in a loud conversation. It’s also a useless number unless the point of measurement is listed. 70 dB at the source? 100 feet away? 10 miles away? Maybe within rifle range?

Within the blast radius.

Regards,

No worry: They'll be visiting you and/or America is being slowly transformed into an Islamic country.

but it is not a “hate crime” for all the nonjihadistt residents to be subjecteed to amplified noize simulating a guy’s nuts are getting crushed 5 times a day?

i wonder what those jihadizts would do, if a statue of baphomet was placed at their doorstep?

No doubt. Already happening in Michigan and Minnesota. Obama's import of huge muslim populations was done on purpose and at taxpayer expense.
