I already explained that the theology is flawed. Have you ever learned a foreign language?

One of the central doctrines of Islam, as presented in the Koran, is that their Allah does not have a son.

The Koran even states in Sura 9:30 that those that believe Allah has a son should be destroyed by Allah.

-2- The Koran says the Lord Jesus did not die on the cross. : Sura 4.157.

-3- Allah of Islam is at war with the Bible as the Koran calls anyone believing in the blessed Trinity a liar.

Three major religions name the God of Abraham as The One God and only one of them, Christianity, believes that Jesus is the only begotten Son of God, God the Son, the Third Person of the Holy Trinity. Even some who call themselves Christian deny this tenet of the faith.

From the comments:

Few events determine the future and define the participants more than the siege of Kobane in Sept 2014 on the Turkish/ Syria border did. With the Turks and the world watched with binoculars while ISIS sent in wave after wave to slaughter everyone, Turkey smiled. Turkey did nothing as the end approached. The US military literarily demanded they be allowed to give air support-Obama finally agreed. The subsequent defeat of ISIS at Kobane by the bravest of the brave will no doubt go down as a turning points in Kurdish history. Th American military saw a potential ally for the entire ISIS elimination mission and also a useless group of people so blinded by hatred as to be useless as an ally. It’s pay back and it will not be pleasant. Never forget Kobane in dealing with Turkey, it was their defining moment as well.

Totally agree. Very well said.

From a friend on Twitter in Cairo today:

Egypt Great Eagle
@EgyptGreatEagle
Muslim Bro of Turkey: “If u don’t support the Turkish Lira, ur wife shall be rapped befor ur eyes.”

This is more of the Great Evil that is connected with Turkish History.

Bad news, he doesn’t have a god, either.

People who equate Allah with God hardest hit. Thanks C19fan.

Now is definitely not the time to be anywhere near Turkey.

The “man of Sin” will soon rise from that Nation.

Don’t kid yourself.

They’re going a route similar to Germany in the ‘30s.

Massive demonstrations of Islamic insanity daily.

After watching “Midnight Express” all those years ago, I never had any desire to ever visit Turkey.

...followed those comments up Friday by urging Turks to sell dollars and gold and buy lira.
Good advice, that'll teach us, because that's how markets work -- more demand for gold and US dollars will, well, okay, that'll drive up the prices and drive down the value of the Turkish lira... but the Turkish moral victory will be COMPLETE. And that will benefit Turks in the long term. There is no terrorism but jihad, and Turkey is its prison b****..

Turkey has never been anything but Islamist in the last 1500 years.

It is the birthplace of the Califate.

The Ottoman Empire was Islamic tyranny from top to bottom.

You have zero understanding of Turkey.

Because they were not like Saudi Arabia does not mean they were anything but Islamist.

That is the reason for their genocide against Armenia.

Turkey is the heart and soul of Islam.
