Turkey's turning Hagia Sophia cathedral back into a mosque
More signs of Turkey's lurch towards totalitarianism, not to mention their determination to eradicate Christianity from Erdogan's regime:
The ancient cathedral of Hagia Sophia in Istanbul – the former seat of eastern Christianity – could now be dedicated to use as a mosque after Turkey’s high court on Friday ruled its conversion into a museum in 1934 was unlawful.And this is evidently his way of boosting his public support back up again. Interesting how it's implied Muslims are the only movement where conservatism is approved of. Now, the ummah has once again hijacked a historic site for the sole purpose of serving as an example of their beliefs in turning everything into their ideological use. Truly awful.
[...] It was a decision long sought by conservative Muslims in Turkey and beyond and especially by President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, whose popularity is waning after 18 years atop Turkish politics, the New York Times reports.
