Turkey’s relationship with NATO is one of the most revealing stories in modern geopolitics.

What began in 1952 as a clear Cold War security pact has evolved into something far more complicated under President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

This thread traces that journey, from Soviet containment to neo-Ottoman ambition, and the deep historical ironies and current tensions that shape it today. 2/

In February 1952, Turkey joined NATO alongside Greece. The decision was driven by existential Cold War pressures. After World War II, the Soviet Union made direct territorial demands on eastern Turkey and sought joint control of the strategic Turkish Straits.

The Truman Doctrine provided initial American support, but Turkey’s contribution of troops to the Korean War proved its reliability to the West. NATO membership delivered the security guarantee Ankara needed against Soviet aggression and positioned Turkey as the alliance’s vital southern flank.

What if the most controversial country on earth is actually the greatest modern example of successful decolonization?

In a world built on layers of conquest and forgotten histories, Israel stands as a shining symbol of justice reclaimed. After two thousand years of exile, persecution, and loss, the Jewish people returned to their ancient homeland, transforming a barren land into a thriving democracy.

This unprecedented act of decolonization, the first true success in modern times, not only revives a nation’s spirit but also exposes the fragile foundations of many empires.

It’s no wonder this miracle provokes such fierce controversy. It dares to show that the oppressed can rise, reclaim what’s theirs, and build a future of freedom and prosperity. 2/

The story of Israel begins with a people deeply rooted in the land of Judea, where their ancestors built kingdoms, temples, and a rich culture thousands of years ago.

Invaded time and again by empires like the Romans, Byzantines, Arabs, Crusaders, Ottomans, and British, the Jews were scattered across the globe. Their holy sites were desecrated, their communities destroyed, and their identity suppressed.

Yet through it all, a dream persisted: the return to Zion. This wasn’t just nostalgia. It was a rightful claim to indigeneity, backed by unbroken historical ties, archaeology, and spiritual connection.

Zionism emerged as a movement of hope and self-determination, rebuilding the homeland through hard work, legal land purchases, and international recognition, not conquest.

1/ 🧵 THE BRITISH BETRAYAL OF THE JEWS

The story of Britain’s role in the Mandate of Palestine from 1922 to 1948 is one of broken promises and tragic consequences. Hundreds of thousands of Jews lost their lives due to the British betrayal and broken promises.

Few countries have more blood on their hands than Britain. 2/

It all started with high hopes. In 1917, the British government issued the Balfour Declaration.

This was a letter promising to support a national home for the Jewish people in Palestine. Jews around the world saw it as a beacon of hope after centuries of persecution.

But as the years went on, Britain turned its back on that promise. They started blocking Jewish immigrants from entering the land, which they called the Mandate of Palestine.

This wasn’t just a policy shift. It was a betrayal that cost countless lives, especially during the horrors of World War Two.

The Holocaust and Armenian genocide are rightly remembered as horrific examples of mass slaughter in the modern era.

Yet they pale in comparison to what happened in India between 1000 and 1550 AD… the largest genocide in human history, in which Islamic invaders killed tens of millions of Hindus and shattered an ancient civilization. 2/

It began with Mahmud of Ghazni’s repeated invasions from circa 1000 AD.

Driven by religious zeal and greed for temple wealth, his armies sacked cities like Somnath. They slaughtered thousands of pilgrims and destroyed idols they viewed as symbols of idolatry.

Contemporary accounts describe rivers running red with blood as entire populations who refused conversion were put to the sword.

The West Bank isn’t “occupied Palestinian land.” It’s the ancient Jewish heartland of Judea and Samaria, and it was stolen by Jordan in 1948, ethnically cleansed of Jews, and now rightfully back in Jewish hands after a defensive war.

Bookmark and share. The next time you see anyone telling you about “occupation”, “stolen land”, “ethnic cleansing”, “settlers” or international law, remind them of this truth.

THE ILLUSION OF NEUTRAL MEDIATION: A COUNTERTERRORISM PERSPECTIVE ON WHY US-IRAN TALKS IN SWITZERLAND ARE STRUCTURED TO FAVOR TEHRAN

(Mor Edge Insights - June 22, 2026)

High level talks between the United States and Iran are underway in Switzerland with Qatar and Pakistan acting as the primary facilitators.

On the surface this looks like standard diplomacy. In reality, it is a mediation framework deliberately constructed around parties that share deep historical, ideological, and operational alignments with one side of the conflict.

This is not neutral arbitration. It is backchannel facilitation by interested actors with long records of enabling the very behaviors under negotiation. 2/

Iran itself has been formally designated by the United States as a state sponsor of terrorism since 1984. That designation rests on the Islamic Republic’s post 1979 revolutionary strategy of exporting its ideology through proxy networks.

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Quds Force has armed, trained, and funded groups including Hezbollah in Lebanon, Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad in Gaza and the West Bank, and the Houthis in Yemen. These relationships are not peripheral. They form the core of Iran’s regional power projection and have been linked to attacks that killed American personnel and allies over decades.

Any negotiation framework that treats this actor as a standard state counterpart while routing communication through sympathetic intermediaries inherits those structural problems from the outset.

What does “victory” really mean in this US-Israel versus Iran war. A 🧵.

It’s been four weeks since it all kicked off on February 28. For some it’s perceived as an unfair fight. It’s like a super heavyweight boxer going up against a flyweight. The big guy needs a quick knockout in the first round. The little guy just has to last until the bell rings and survive. That’s the key here. 2)

Before the fighting started, the US made some clear demands to Iran. First, no nuclear program at all, no enrichment, no weapons, and everything nuclear has to be taken apart. Second, stop all the proxies, no more money or support for groups like Hezbollah or the Houthis. Third, no more killing or oppressing the Iranian people. And fourth, shut down the whole ballistic missile program and anything like it.

Thread on the Oppression by Iran's Islamic Regime

Since the Islamic Revolution in 1979, the regime in Iran has used strong methods to control its people. Right after taking power, they started arresting and punishing those who opposed them. Many political groups and individuals who did not agree with the new leaders faced quick trials and harsh sentences. This created a climate of fear where speaking out could lead to prison or worse.
Over the years, the government set up special forces like the Revolutionary Guards to watch over society. These groups helped the regime stay in power by stopping any signs of protest. In the early 1980s, thousands of people were executed without fair trials, showing how the leaders would do anything to silence dissent. 2/15

In the 1980s, during the war with Iraq, the regime increased its control inside the country. They used the war as a reason to arrest more people and call them enemies. Prisons became places of torture where guards beat and hurt detainees to get confessions. Many died from these abuses, and families were left without answers.

One of the worst events was in 1988 when thousands of political prisoners were hanged in secret. This massacre targeted people who had already been jailed for their beliefs. It showed the regime's willingness to kill its own citizens to protect its rule.

ATTENTION ALL AMERICANS

Thread 🧵 on Iran's Targeting of America and Americans:

The Islamic regime in Iran started its attacks on America right after the 1979 revolution. They took over the US Embassy in Tehran and held 52 Americans hostage for over a year. This act of terror showed their hatred towards the United States and set the stage for more violence.
They used proxy groups like Hezbollah to carry out bombings. In 1983, Hezbollah bombed the US Marine barracks in Beirut, killing 241 American service members. Iran trained and funded this group, acting as mercenaries to strike without direct blame. 2/15

In the 1980s, Iran supported attacks on US forces in the Middle East. They backed groups that kidnapped and killed Americans, like CIA station chief William Buckley in 1984. These proxies tortured and murdered him, following Iran's orders.

The regime also plotted assassinations on US soil. In 1980, they hired an assassin to kill a former Iranian diplomat in Maryland who criticized the leaders. This showed Iran's reach into America using hired killers.

The Six-Day War: Why it Started and How Israel Defeated the Arab Armies in Six Days - a thread 🧵

In the spring of 1967, Israel faced an unmistakable cascade of existential threats from a coalition of Arab states openly committed to its destruction. Egypt, under Gamal Abdel Nasser, expelled the United Nations Emergency Force (UNEF) that had served as a buffer in the Sinai and Gaza since 1957, an act that directly violated international agreements and removed the sole international guarantee of peace along Israel’s southern border. Simultaneously, Egyptian armored divisions and over 100,000 troops poured into the Sinai Peninsula, reaching the very edge of Israel’s frontier in a blatant preparation for offensive warfare. Nasser’s public boasts on Cairo Radio that “our goal is the destruction of Israel” and his declaration that Egypt was ready for “total war which will result in the liquidation of Israel” left no ambiguity about his intentions. When Egypt then imposed a naval blockade on the Strait of Tiran, closing Israel’s only southern shipping route to Asia and East Africa, Israel’s Supreme Court and government unanimously recognized this as a clear act of war under international law, strangling the young nation’s access to vital oil supplies and effectively placing it under siege. 2/

Surrounded on all fronts, Israel watched Syria relentlessly shell civilian communities from the Golan Heights while sponsoring waves of Fatah terror attacks across the northern border, and Jordan signed a mutual defense pact with Egypt that placed its British-trained Arab Legion under Egyptian command. False Soviet intelligence deliberately fed to Egypt and Syria claiming an imminent Israeli attack inflamed the situation further, giving Nasser the pretext he needed to mobilize the entire Arab world. With Arab radio broadcasts daily proclaiming the coming “final battle” to drive the Jews into the sea, and with Egyptian MiG-21s flying mock strafing runs over Israeli cities, Israel’s civilian population spent weeks in bomb shelters while its tiny standing army confronted a combined Arab force more than twice its size. Faced with the credible, imminent threat of annihilation and with no realistic diplomatic off-ramp (every appeal to the United Nations and Western powers having been ignored) Israel exercised its inherent right of self-defense on June 5, 1967, launching a preemptive strike that averted what would otherwise have been a coordinated multi-front invasion designed to erase the Jewish state from the map.

The Massacres Against Jews in Palestine’s Civil War, November 1947 to March 1948.
A Thread 🧵

Throughout this past 23 months we’ve heard all the stories from the pro Hamas propagandists and influencers telling us about the ”Nakba” (which never actually happened), and about “massacres” like Deir Yassin which they offered half truths intermixed with complete lies. But what they never tell you about are the many incidents that led to events such as Deir Yassin of April 1948. Well this article will detail exactly that… from the day the UN published their Partition Plan in November 1947 through to March 1948… 5 months of brutal savagery that you need to read the details of to appreciate how disturbing and horrific and bloodthirsty these Arabs were... with full British complicity in these atrocities. 2)

The period between November 1947 and May 1948 marks one of the most turbulent chapters in modern Middle Eastern history. Following the United Nations’ vote on November 29, 1947, to partition Palestine into separate Jewish and Arab states, the region erupted into a civil war that pitted Jewish communities against Arab militias. This conflict, fought under the shadow of the British Mandate, was characterized by guerrilla warfare, blockades, and a series of brutal attacks that targeted civilians as much as fighters. For the Jewish population, known as the Yishuv, the months leading up to Israel’s independence were fraught with peril. Roads became battlegrounds, villages turned into fortresses, and convoys transformed into death traps. Amid the chaos, several massacres stood out for their sheer ruthlessness, claiming hundreds of lives and deepening the scars of division.

The Islamic Caliphate, the Muslim Brotherhood, and How the War Against Israel and the West Began - a thread 🧵

In the middle of World War I, the British government wanted help to fight the Ottoman Empire. They talked to Arab leaders who also wanted freedom from Ottoman rule. This led to letters between Sir Henry McMahon, a British official in Egypt, and Sharif Hussein, the leader of Mecca in the Hejaz region. These letters, sent from 1915 to 1916, are known as the McMahon-Hussein correspondence. They are important because they show what Britain offered to the Arabs. But they also make clear that Britain did not promise Palestine to them. This happened before the Balfour Declaration in 1917, which supported a Jewish home in Palestine. From a view that supports Israel’s right to exist, this correspondence proves that the British never meant to give Palestine to the Arabs. Instead, it highlights the Arabs’ big plans for control over a huge area, which looked like wanting an Islamic caliphate. 2)

The war started in 1914, and Britain needed allies in the Middle East. The Ottoman Empire controlled much of the Arab lands, including places like Syria, Iraq, and Palestine. Sharif Hussein was from the Hashemite family, which ruled the Hejaz area around Mecca and Medina. He was an important religious leader because he protected the holy sites of Islam. Hussein saw a chance to become more powerful by helping Britain against the Ottomans. He wanted to create a large Arab kingdom where he would be the king. Britain, through McMahon, sent letters to encourage Hussein to start a revolt.

This is a republishing of a thread Chaya had written back in February, and it’s about a Grand Mufti who allied himself with Nazi Germany, and wrote a book about his life and accounts. This will be two threads merged into one as they link with one another.

Huge thanks and credit to @IbnAlwarraq for the translation and references of the books:

For the past 25 months we’ve seen the most vicious wave of propaganda, lies and inverted truth by the pro Palestine movement. Two key things out of a raft of lies are their denial of the Holocaust, and the other is to try call us the Nazis when in reality it is the Islamists who literally are the Nazis.

Let’s look at what the Grand Mufti revealed in his own words in his autobiography that may shed light on the truth and put shade on the lies of the propagandists and minions.

Thread 1:

In Husseini’s autobiography, he stated that he heard from Himmler in 1943 about murdering 3 million Jews up to that time.

I’m also attaching his declaration which he wrote for Hitler to sign where he states his wish to bring the “final solution” to MENA just as Hitler did to the Jews in Europe, so that you can all see how it ties in with the Holocaust and Husseini’s desire to exterminate all the Jews everywhere in the Middle East.

“I used to hear from Himmler every time what indicated the intensity of his hatred for the Jews, accusing them of being oppressors, claiming that they were oppressed, saying that they were the ones who kindled the fires of war, selfish, and so on, and showing the extent of the harm they had inflicted on Germany in the last war, and that they always kindled the fires of war and then exploited it for their material interests, without losing anything in it, and therefore we were determined in this war to make them taste the consequences of their actions in advance, and we have so far annihilated about three million of them. This was his statement in the summer of 1943.”

The Historical Roots of Jewish Presence in the Land of Israel: Archaeological Insights.
A Thread 🧵

For centuries, people have debated the origins of the Jewish people and their connection to the land known today as Israel. But archaeology provides solid clues that point to a deep historical tie. Through ancient stones, inscriptions, and artifacts dug up from the earth, we can trace evidence showing that this region was home to the Israelites, the ancestors of the Jewish people, as far back as over 3000 years ago. These finds aren’t just random relics. They mention names, places, and events that align with Jewish history.

One of the oldest hints comes from ancient Egypt. Around 1400 BCE, during the time of Pharaoh Amenhotep III, a statue pedestal now kept in Berlin bears a relief that seems to refer to “Israel.” This artifact, known as the Berlin Pedestal Relief, shows bound captives and lists place names like Ashkelon and Canaan, with a damaged spot that experts believe once said “Israel.” It’s a bit controversial because the inscription is worn, but many scholars see it as the earliest extra-biblical nod to the Israelites in Canaan, suggesting they were already a recognized group in the region long before more detailed records appear.

A clearer reference pops up about 200 years later on the Merneptah Stele, a massive stone slab from Egypt dated to around 1208 BCE. Pharaoh Merneptah boasts about his military wins in Canaan, and one line stands out: “Israel is laid waste; his seed is not.” This is the first undisputed mention of “Israel” in any ancient text outside the Bible. It portrays Israel not as a city or a king, but as a people or a tribal group settled in the land. Finds like this stele help counter ideas that the Israelites were latecomers. Instead, they show a presence during what’s often called the Late Bronze Age, aligning with stories of settlement after the Exodus. 2/

Moving forward in time, the Iron Age brings more evidence of organized kingdoms. The land splits into Israel in the north and Judah in the south, with kings ruling over tribes. Archaeology uncovers inscriptions that name these kingdoms and their leaders, proving they weren’t just legends.

The Tel Dan Stele, found in northern Israel in 1993 is a basalt stone from the 9th century BCE set up by an Aramean king, Hazael, to celebrate victories. It mentions killing the “king of Israel” (likely Jehoram) and the “House of David,” referring to the dynasty of King David in Judah. This is huge because it’s the first archaeological proof of David as a historical figure, not just a biblical one. The “House of David” phrase shows Judah was ruled by his descendants, tying the land to Jewish royal history.

Nearby neighbors left records too. The Mesha Stele, also called the Moabite Stone, dates to about 840 BCE and was erected by King Mesha of Moab. It talks about battles with Israel, naming King Omri as the oppressor who controlled Moab. Recent studies using advanced imaging confirm it also says “House of David,” linking to Judah’s kings. This artifact echoes biblical accounts in 2 Kings, showing Israelite dominance in the region.

The Palestinian Authority's Pay to Slay Scheme: Mahmoud Abbas's Ongoing Deception

The Palestinian Authority's "Pay to Slay" scheme has been a controversial program for many years. It involves paying monthly stipends to Arabs who are imprisoned in Israel for security offenses, as well as to the families of those killed during attacks. Critics argue that this system rewards violence and encourages more attacks against Israelis. The program is seen as a way for the Arab leadership to support those they view as fighters in their cause. Over time, it has drawn strong criticism from the United States and Israel, leading to laws that cut funding to the Palestinian Authority until the payments stop. 2/13

The scheme started in the early 2000s, based on a law passed by the PA in 2004. This law sets out rules for payments to prisoners and their families. The amounts depend on how long someone has been in prison or the type of action they took. For example, a prisoner might get a basic salary that increases over time, up to several thousand shekels per month. Families of those killed, often called "martyrs," also receive regular payments. The PA spends a large part of its budget on this, sometimes up to 7% or more, which comes from taxes and international aid.
