        A thing many western observers of Turkey fundamentally misunderstand is the importance of Rumeli to the Ottoman Empire, and how it was in many ways the heart of the Ottoman Empire, rather than Anatolia. One must factor in its loss and the impact on the Turkish conscience

        Those are just interesting facts. They do not, by themselves, explain anything.

        Soner bey, tam verilmek istenen mesaj nedir? Bu hazırlıklar kimin imzasını taşımaktadır? Neden gündeme gelmektedir? Bir çok stratejik hamlenin ilk adımları olabilir, bu kadar uzun süre kalanlar bile dağıldıysa mevcutlar neden olmasın yorumu bile yapılabilir...
