Human right groups are losing a shit because the Greek Coast Guard not only rammed a boatload of Muslims attempting to illegally enter Greece, but also pushed them back into Turkey so they can live with Muslims instead of leeching from Europeans and contributing nothing but crime

A video circulating on Greek social media shows a Pakistani man recording young women in swimsuits on a Greek beach with his mobile phone. In the video, a Pakistani man is seen holding his mobile phone as he scans women walking, standing, or swimming at a beach. Behind him, other swimmers, boats, and hotels are visible. The footage is set to background music, creating the impression that the Pakistani appears unbothered by displaying his disgusting behavior. Social media users have pointed out that similar cases of women being secretly filmed in public by Pakistanis have occurred before, emphasizing the urgent need for intervention by the Greek police.

Turkish food slop in the city of Kahramanmaraş. This business charges 200TL (€4) for 5 meat skewers, prepared with filthy hands and a dirty counter, raising questions about the quality of the meat. Turkish kebabs & skewers are famously made with low-grade meat and lots of fat.

Dozens of Pakistanis besieged the Ministry of Immigration and Asylum on Friday, turning the area into "Athensabad" and defiantly demanding the legalization of their stay in Greece. The central figure in the mobilization was Javed Aslan, the president of the Pakistani Community in Greece, who is facing deportation, called for the legalization of cousin marriage, demanded the opening of hundreds of mosques, and is allegedly involved in running illegal mosques across Athens. The Pakistani protestors demanded the immediate reinstatement of asylum status for those who lost it and the extension of residence permits. The question that looms is whether the Ministry will succumb to the pressure from organized Pakistanis and pro-migrant organizations or whether legality and national security will finally be imposed in an Athens that resembles less and less a European capital.

This is Gastrin, a Bronze Age Cretan (Minoan) dessert that the Turks discovered thousands of years later, stuck a few thinner layers of pastry in between, called baklava, and then unashamedly claimed as their own invention. Gastrin dates back to the Minoan Period, making it at the very least 3,500 years old, and is considered the ancestor of baklava for obvious reasons. To this very day, it is still prepared in Crete for holidays, festivals, or as a specialty dessert. Want to make your own Gastrin? This is how: Ingredients: 1 packet of pastry 180g Butter, melted For the filling: 300 grams roughly ground hazelnuts 300 grams roasted and coarsely ground almonds 300 grams coarsely ground walnuts 100 grams of poppy seeds 100 grams roasted sesame seeds 1/2 teaspoon pepper 1/2 cup honey For the syrup: 1/4 cup petimezi (grape molasses) 1/2 cup water 1 cup honey 2 tbsps lemon juice 1) Combine all the ground nuts, poppy seeds, sesame seeds, pepper, and honey. Mix well until it holds together slightly. Divide into two equal portions. 2) Preheat oven to 180°C / 350°F (moderate heat). 3) Oil or butter a baking pan. Place the first dough sheetin the pan. Spread half the filling evenly. Add the second sheet and the remaining filling. Top with the third sheet. 4) Brush the top with melted butter. Sprinkle with sesame seeds if you want. 5) Score into diamond or square shapes with a sharp knife (do not cut all the way through yet). 6) Bake for 30–45 minutes until golden brown. 7) While baking, combine water, honey, petimezi, and lemon juice in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, then simmer 5–10 minutes until slightly thickened. Let it cool slightly. 8) When the gastrin comes out of the oven, let it cool for 5–10 minutes, then pour the warm syrup evenly over the hot pastry. It will sizzle and soak in. Allow it to fully absorb (ideally for a few hours or overnight) before serving.

Netanyahu said “Indian lancers were lions against the Ottoman occupation.” What did he mean by that? In 1918, during WW1, outnumbered lancers from Jodhpur and Mysore charged at machine guns, artillery and strong defensive positions in Haifa and wrecked the Turks and Germans, killing and wounding over 1,000 and taking 1,350 prisoners, including 25 officers. The Indians only sustained 8 deaths and 34 wounded. The Battle of Haifa is renowned as one of the last and most successful cavalry charges in modern history, and the Ottomans have the privilege of being known as being on the receiving end of this brave and courageous Indian charge. Major Thakur Dalpat Singh led the charge and is honored as the “Hero of Haifa.”

🇮🇳🇹🇷 Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan says Turkey does not have a "bad history with India," completely omitting that Turkey has been a long-term sponsor of Pakistan's terrorism in Jammu and Kashmir and even deployed drone operators to kill Indians during Operation Sindoor. At the 6th IISS Raffles Lecture on June 2, 2026 in Singapore, when questioned about India, Hakan Fidan said: "We really would like to have excellent relations with India because we don't have any border with India. We don't have any u outstanding bilateral issue with India. I mean we don't have a bad history with India. On the contrary, we have every good reason to have to have good relationship. But Turkey is not only the one country that having good relations with Pakistan and historical solidarity with Pakistan on some given issues. I mean we are having differences with Russia on certain issues, with United States on certain issues, with some European countries on certain. But we need we are able to divorce one negative issue from the other. So we can put some some problems in parentheses in brackets and we can go on the positive agenda. I think this is what needs to be done between Turkey and India because we have a lot to cooperate, to benefit and we are mature enough to go on this direction. So Turkey is not the only country who actually have good relations and brotherly relations with Pakistan. There are other countries. If India is going to take actions or be resentful about any countries who is having good relations and enjoying giving support to Pakistan... I don't know... But as I said we have no problem on bilateral level with India and we urge India not to read the the issue from a different perspective." Turkey's decision to back a terror hub and no-hope Pakistan instead of India has not only brought more security risk to Turkey's borders, but it also means that Turkey will miss out on the benefits that the movement of trillions of dollars of trade will have along the IMEC Corridor. But rather than humble themselves, Turkey still wants to behave arrogantly by minimizing their nefarious actions against India and portraying Turkey-Pakistan ties as something as innocent as economic trade, ignoring their "Three Brothers" military nexus with Azerbaijan that has the explicit goal of territorial expansionism, including in Kashmir. Turkey's monumental fuck-up regarding India has only been to Greece's and Cyprus' benefit. Thank you, Turkey. While you prioritize relations with useless Pakistan, we will benefit from being a major node on IMEC.

I’ve been to the Badshahi Mosque while at a conference in Lahore. I also did a semester of uni at Bradford (but lived in Leeds). This couple could’ve just gotten a train ticket to Bradford and still get the shitty authentic Pakistani experience but save a hell of a lot of money.

Netherlands-born "Turk" Jale Betul Karaaslan did a genetic test & discovered she was 46% Greek! She is actually more when including the 13% Italian as Greek & (southern) Italian are the same. It appears she is only 11% Turkic. DNA tests scourge of Turkey's Turkic-origin myth.

Pakistan PM Shehbaz Sharif expressed his “sincere gratitude” to his “dear brother Erdogan” in a joint news conference on Tuesday because of “Turkey's unwavering support on the Kashmir issue" and again repeated Pakistan's support for Turkey’s occupation of northern Cyprus. I have warned about the Turkey-Pakistan nexus and their goals to support their respective conquests of Kashmir and Cyprus for years. In fact I warned about this only a few days ago to The Asian Chronicle ( It wasn’t by accident that on the same day Turkey and Pakistan reaffirmed their support for their respective causes that Pakistani-backed terrorist unleashed slaughter and mayhem in Kashmir. Unfortunately for them, India and Greece will break their ambitions for a neo-Ottoman and neo-Mughal Empires. Pakistan doesn’t fully appreciate just yet how the game has now changed after yesterday’s terror attack. There will be revenge, and it won’t work out well for Pakistan, and there is nothing Turkey can do but sit back and watch their closest ally suffer and be humiliated.

🇵🇰🇹🇷 Pakistani Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif said, "Pakistan has always found a home in the hearts of the people of Turkey, just as Turkey lives in the hearts of every Pakistani. "This unique friendship has been reinforced by centuries of shared history, common faith, mutual sacrifice, and an enduring sense of brotherhood. "During the Turkish War of Independence, Muslims of the subcontinent stood shoulder to shoulder with their Turkish brothers. "Turkey has always stood by Pakistan in difficult times."

A Turkish citizen did a DNA test and discovered the truth - "we don't come from these real Turks with slanted eyes; we come from Christians who were kidnapped and used as slaves by these Ottomans." Full transcript: "If you look at this map, it's obvious which is the good and bad sides. Right next to Europe, the Ottomans enslaved European Christians for 600 years to their harems and Janissary army. How can nobody be talking about this? "How can there be no Hollywood movies about this? Wouldn't Hollywood be dying to make movies about this? "They would, but Ataturk destroyed all these real Ottomans with these slanted eyes so that history would not exist anymore. That's why nobody makes movies about it. Nobody talks about it. Us Turks are not considered innocent because we don't come from these real Turks with slanted eyes. "We come from Christians who were kidnapped and used as slaves by these Ottomans. By making us all Turks, by calling us all the same, by saying 'How happy is he who says calls himself Turk', Ataturk turned to the dark side. "Instead of telling us that we were turned into Turks, instead of telling us we were kidnapped Christians who were then turned into Muslim Turks, he kept this most important part of our history a secret. "Instead of telling us we come from Christians, he committed genocide against Christian Armenians and Christian Greeks so he can establish a country without any Christians in them. "I did a DNA test and I am almost entirely from Christian Europeans, from the Balkans, Bulgaria, Greece, Italy, and also some Turkish (Anatolian), Caucasian, and Jewish from Iran. Other Turks' DNA will also look like this. There's only going to be a little bit of Turkish DNA."

This is the hilarious video of Turkish citizens reacting to their MyHeritage DNA results. “I am not Greek! I have nothing with Greeks!” “I will laugh hard if I am actually Greek… Fuck you! How can such a thing happen?” “I am Greek as far as I am Turkish” #Turkey #Turkiye #DNA #MyHeritage #Genetic #Greek

Pakistanis, for the first time in years, were banned from protesting outside the Indian Embassy in Athens on so-called "Kashmir Siege Day" and instead protested in Omonia, which unfortunately is a neighbourhood that has become a mini-Pakistan. The so-called "Kashmir Siege Day" protest also doubled up as a PTI protest that demanded the release of Imran Khan. I don't know why these buffoons protest about Kashmir or Imran Khan in Greece - nobody here cares, nor will it achieve anything. Plain and simple, Kashmir is Indian territory that is partially occupied by Pakistan and China. Although Greek authorities FINALLY made the correct decision to stop these protests outside the Indian Embassy, this is not enough. All such protests need to be outlawed and Pakistanis deported from Greece.
