  118. <p><strong>Introduction: The Dangerous Rebirth of Ottoman Ambitions</strong></p>
  119.  
  120.  
  121.  
  122. <p>Modern Turkey, under the leadership of Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, is no longer the democratic republic envisioned by Mustafa Kemal Atatürk. Over the past two decades, Erdoğan’s regime has steadily moved from electoral populism to near-total authoritarian control. Political opponents are jailed, media is censored, the judiciary is compromised, and religious nationalism is at an all-time high.</p>
  123.  
  124.  
  125.  
  126. <p>Turkey has morphed into a neo-Ottoman project with delusions of grandeur across the Middle East and Eastern Mediterranean. Erdoğan wants to become the caliph of a Sunni Muslim bloc, backed by an aggressive foreign policy rooted in anti-Western rhetoric and military adventurism. The only thing that may truly shake this dangerous trajectory is a profound external jolt—a humiliating defeat in war. History shows us that sometimes, unfortunately, it takes a decisive, painful loss to strip authoritarian regimes of their illusions, bringing the populace back to democratic sanity.</p>

  133.  
  134. <p><strong>1. Turkey’s Authoritarian Slide: How Did It Begin?</strong></p>
  135.  
  136.  
  137.  
  138. <p>Recep Tayyip Erdoğan’s early years in power (2003–2010) were marked by pro-European rhetoric, economic liberalization, and strategic moderation. But as his grip tightened, the illusion of democracy crumbled. Turkey today has one of the highest rates of jailed journalists in the world. Opposition figures are prosecuted on vague charges of “terrorism.” The judiciary is a puppet of the executive branch. Parliament is sidelined.</p>
  139.  
  140.  
  141.  
  142. <p>Erdoğan changed the Constitution via a controversial referendum in 2017, giving himself near-absolute powers as President. Since then, Turkey’s institutions have become tools of personal rule. What we now see is not a proud republic but a sultanate in disguise, driven by Islamic nationalism and personal vendettas.</p>
  143.  
  144.  
  145.  
  146. <p>And Erdoğan’s domestic authoritarianism spills over into foreign policy.</p>
  147.  
  148.  
  149.  
  150. <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity"/>

  153.  
  154. <p><strong>2. Foreign Policy of Belligerence: Picking Fights with the World</strong></p>
  155.  
  156.  
  157.  
  158. <p>Turkey is currently involved, either directly or through proxies, in conflicts in:</p>
  159.  
  160.  
  161.  
  162. <ul class="wp-block-list">
  163. <li>Syria: Attacking Kurdish allies of the West, violating Syrian sovereignty</li>
  164.  
  165.  
  166.  
  167. <li>Libya: Supporting Islamist factions and clashing with French-backed forces</li>
  168.  
  169.  
  170.  
  171. <li>Nagorno-Karabakh: Backing Azerbaijan militarily against Armenia</li>
  172.  
  173.  
  174.  
  175. <li>Iraq: Launching airstrikes and incursions against Kurdish populations</li>
  176.  
  177.  
  178.  
  179. <li>Greece &amp; Cyprus: Provoking crises in the Mediterranean over energy exploration</li>
  180.  
  181.  
  182.  
  183. <li>Israel: Constant verbal assaults, while supporting Hamas rhetorically</li>
  184. </ul>
  185.  
  186.  
  187.  
  188. <p>Erdoğan has adopted a policy of neo-Ottomanism, believing Turkey should reclaim its role as a dominant Muslim power. He has alienated Europe, antagonized NATO, befriended rogue states like Iran and Qatar, and plays a double game with Russia and China.</p>
  189.  
  190.  
  191.  
  192. <p>This aggressive stance has made Turkey a geopolitical irritant. But what emboldens Erdoğan? Simply put: he has never paid a real price for his actions. His adventurism has gone unchecked. Sanctions are symbolic. Condemnations are hollow. What he needs is a hard, unmistakable lesson—one that comes from losing.</p>

  198.  
  199.  
  200. <p><strong>3. Why Authoritarian Regimes Often Learn Through Defeat</strong></p>
  201.  
  202.  
  203.  
  204. <p>History is replete with examples:</p>
  205.  
  206.  
  207.  
  208. <ul class="wp-block-list">
  209. <li><strong>Germany (1945):</strong> Only after a devastating defeat in World War II did Germany shed its Nazi totalitarianism and embrace democracy.</li>
  210.  
  211.  
  212.  
  213. <li><strong>Argentina (1982):</strong> The defeat in the Falklands War led to the fall of the military junta and a return to civilian rule.</li>
  214.  
  215.  
  216.  
  217. <li><strong>Russia (1905):</strong> Defeat by Japan triggered the first Russian Revolution, exposing the Tsarist regime’s fragility.</li>
  218.  
  219.  
  220.  
  221. <li><strong>Serbia (1999):</strong> NATO bombings and military setbacks helped dislodge Slobodan Milošević.</li>
  222. </ul>
  223.  
  224.  
  225.  
  226. <p>War defeat forces authoritarian regimes to confront their internal decay. The myth of invincibility shatters. Citizens wake up. Elites defect. Institutions rebel. A broken army can become a catalyst for revolution.</p>
  227.  
  228.  
  229.  
  230. <p>In Turkey’s case, a military defeat could unravel the very narratives Erdoğan thrives on: strength, divine favor, and Islamic supremacy.</p>
  231.  
  232.  
  233.  
  234. <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity"/>
  235.  
  236.  
  237.  
  238. <p><strong>4. What Would a Defeat Look Like for Turkey?</strong></p>
  239.  
  240.  
  241.  
  242. <p>Let’s be clear: no one is advocating war for the sake of war. But if Turkey’s military were to overreach—say, by attacking Greece or Israel—or if it were to miscalculate in Syria or Libya, a coordinated international response could inflict a humiliating defeat.</p>
  243.  
  244.  
  245.  
  246. <p>Scenarios include:</p>
  247.  
  248.  
  249.  
  250. <ul class="wp-block-list">

  268. <p>Such a defeat would dismantle the myth of Turkish military supremacy Erdoğan peddles to his Islamist base. The economic repercussions would be severe. Internal protests would explode. Military generals—many already skeptical—could turn.</p>

  276. <p><strong>5. Erdoğan’s Achilles’ Heel: Economy and Military Confidence</strong></p>
  277.  
  278.  
  279.  
  280. <p>Erdoğan may roar like a lion, but his rule is built on shaky pillars. The Turkish lira is in freefall. Inflation is rampant. Foreign investors are fleeing. Youth unemployment is soaring. Add to this a fractured military leadership—many top generals were jailed or purged after the 2016 coup attempt—and the stage is set for implosion.</p>
  281.  
  282.  
  283.  
  284. <p>Unlike true strongmen like Putin, Erdoğan doesn’t have a deep-state military loyalty. His reliance on religious loyalists and secretive paramilitaries (like SADAT) shows that he doesn’t fully trust his generals.</p>
  285.  
  286.  
  287.  
  288. <p>A failed war, with tens of thousands of casualties, would destroy the illusion of invincibility. And with economic chaos as the backdrop, the Turkish people—already disillusioned—may rise.</p>
  289.  
  290.  
  291.  
  292. <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity"/>
  293.  
  294.  
  295.  
  296. <p><strong>6. The Psychology of War and National Pride</strong></p>
  297.  
  298.  
  299.  
  300. <p>Turkey’s national identity, shaped post-Ottoman collapse, is highly sensitive to humiliation. Erdoğan knows this, which is why he constantly invokes “foreign conspiracies,” “Crusaders vs Islam,” and “resisting the West.” This siege mentality keeps the population in line.</p>
  301.  
  302.  
  303.  
  304. <p>But when a state built on pride faces a catastrophic defeat, that very pride becomes a weapon against the regime. Citizens no longer buy the propaganda. The myth dies.</p>
  305.  
  306.  
  307.  
  308. <p>Much like Egyptians after the 1967 defeat to Israel began questioning Nasser’s regime, a Turkish loss would ignite the intellectual and urban class. Students, lawyers, teachers, even soldiers—once silenced—could break free of fear.</p>
  309.  
  310.  
  311.  
  312. <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity"/>
  313.  
  314.  
  315.  
  316. <p><strong>7. Turkey’s Youth Is Already Fed Up</strong></p>
  317.  
  318.  
  319.  
  320. <p>Despite heavy censorship, Turkey’s younger population—millions of them—are online, informed, and tired of Islamist rule. They don’t want to live in a theocratic mock-Caliphate. They want Europe. They want freedom. They want dignity.</p>
  321.  
  322.  
  323.  
  324. <p>But their dissent is muffled by surveillance, threats, and police crackdowns. A national shock, like war defeat, would empower them. Campus protests would become revolutionary movements. Universities, long silenced, would turn into engines of resistance.</p>
  325.  
  326.  
  327.  
  328. <p>Just as Iranian youth today rise against the mullahs after every setback, Turkish youth would demand change in the aftermath of military failure.</p>
  329.  
  330.  
  331.  
  332. <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity"/>
  333.  
  334.  
  335.  
  336. <p><strong>8. The West’s Moral Dilemma: Engagement or Confrontation?</strong></p>
  337.  
  338.  
  339.  
  340. <p>The United States and Europe are caught in a moral trap with Turkey. On one hand, Turkey is a NATO member. On the other, it undermines Western interests at every turn.</p>
  341.  
  342.  
  343.  
  344. <p>By tolerating Erdoğan’s duplicity—buying Russian S-400 missiles, threatening Greece, jailing Kurds—the West sends a message of weakness. This emboldens Erdoğan.</p>
  345.  
  346.  
  347.  
  348. <p>A coordinated military response, even symbolic, to Turkish aggression would signal that the era of appeasement is over. If Turkey, for instance, invades Greek islands, NATO should not hesitate to side with Athens, even if it means suspending Turkey’s membership.</p>
  349.  
  350.  
  351.  
  352. <p>There is no space for neo-Ottomanism in a rules-based world.</p>
  353.  
  354.

  356. <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity"/>

  359.  
  360. <p><strong>9. After the Fall: A Democratic Rebirth?</strong></p>
  361.  
  362.  
  363.  
  364. <p>If Turkey were to suffer a military defeat and Erdoğan’s regime collapses, what comes next?</p>
  365.  
  366.  
  367.  
  368. <p>The answer isn’t chaos. Turkey still has remnants of civil society. It has intellectuals, opposition parties like the CHP and HDP, and an educated diaspora that can help rebuild.</p>
  369.  
  370.  
  371.  
  372. <p>After the fall of the regime, a transitional government—perhaps led by technocrats and respected military figures—could oversee elections. Constitutional reforms would restore parliamentary democracy. The military would be restructured. Islamism would retreat to the fringes. The Atatürk model could be revived—secular, modern, globally aligned.</p>
  373.  
  374.  
  375.  
  376. <p>This rebirth won’t be easy. But it’s far more desirable than continued descent into Islamic autocracy.</p>
  377.  
  378.  
  379.  
  380. <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity"/>
  381.  
  382.  
  383.  
  384. <p><strong>Conclusion: Peace Through Humbling, Not Appeasement</strong></p>
  385.  
  386.  
  387.  
  388. <p>The West cannot keep tiptoeing around Erdoğan’s Turkey. The global community must recognize that Turkey is no longer a benign, secular democracy. It is a regional menace masquerading as a NATO ally. Erdoğan’s dream of neo-Ottoman revivalism is built on military expansion, religious zealotry, and anti-Western sentiment.</p>
  389.  
  390.  
  391.  
  392. <p>Only a sharp, humiliating defeat can break this delusion.</p>
  393.  
  394.  
  395.  
  396. <p>This is not a call for war, but a recognition of geopolitical reality: sometimes, only when power is broken can sanity be restored. Just as post-WWII Germany and Japan rose from defeat into modern democracies, so too can Turkey—if it’s first reminded that it is not the center of a caliphate, but a nation among equals.</p>
  397.  
  398.  
  399.  
  400. <p>It’s time for Turkey’s fantasy to meet reality. Not with whispers, but with the loud thud of consequence.</p>

  436.  
  437.  
  438.  
  439. <p>Tucked in the rugged folds of the South Caucasus between Georgia, Iran, Turkey, and Azerbaijan, <strong>Armenia</strong> is where <strong>Christianity first took root</strong> as a state religion (in 301 AD), where <strong>volcanic plateaus</strong> kiss the sky, and <strong>khachkars (carved cross-stones)</strong> whisper forgotten legends.</p>
  440.  
  441.  
  442.  
  443. <p>Armenia is often skipped in favor of Georgia or Turkey, but that’s where the magic lies — in its underexplored soul. It&#8217;s cheap, beautiful, raw, and profoundly emotional.</p>

  1032. <p>No city in the world evokes as much spiritual, political, and historical passion as <strong>Jerusalem</strong>. Claimed by many, conquered by empires, and prayed toward by millions, this ancient city is not just a place—it is a heartbeat of civilizations. But strip away the modern diplomatic quarrels and politicized rhetoric, and one truth stands resilient: <strong>Jerusalem has always been, and remains, the historical and spiritual capital of the Jewish people and the modern State of Israel</strong>. This article lays out, in meticulous historical depth, how Jerusalem belongs to Israel—not as an occupation, but as a return.</p>

  1040. <h3 class="wp-block-heading">Part I: Biblical Origins – The Birth of a Capital</h3>
  1041.  
  1042.  
  1043.  
  1044. <p>Jerusalem’s earliest mention in historical texts dates back to around <strong>2000 BCE</strong>, referenced as &#8220;Urusalim&#8221; in Egyptian Execration texts, likely derived from &#8220;Yerushalayim&#8221; in Hebrew, meaning “City of Peace.” But its transformation into a Jewish capital began with <strong>King David</strong>, who in <strong>circa 1000 BCE</strong>, conquered the Jebusite stronghold and established it as the capital of the united Kingdom of Israel.</p>
  1045.  
  1046.  
  1047.  
  1048. <blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
  1049. <p><em>“And David captured the stronghold of Zion—that is, the city of David.”</em> (2 Samuel 5:7)</p>
  1050. </blockquote>
  1051.  
  1052.  
  1053.  
  1054. <p>David didn’t just move his political base; he <strong>spiritually re-centered Jewish life</strong>. His son, <strong>King Solomon</strong>, built the <strong>First Temple</strong> on Mount Moriah (Temple Mount), turning Jerusalem into the epicenter of Jewish worship. This site, where Abraham nearly sacrificed Isaac, became the heart of Judaism and the direction toward which Jews pray to this day.</p>
  1055.  
  1056.  
  1057.  
  1058. <p>For over 400 years, this <strong>First Temple period</strong> saw Jewish life, law, and monarchy blossom from Jerusalem.</p>

  1069.  
  1070. <p>In 586 BCE, the <strong>Babylonian King Nebuchadnezzar</strong> destroyed the First Temple and exiled Jews to Babylon. Yet even in exile, Jerusalem remained central to Jewish memory. Psalm 137, written in Babylon, famously mourns:</p>
  1071.

  1073.  
  1074. <blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">

  1076. </blockquote>
  1077.  
  1078.  
  1079.  
  1080. <p>Seventy years later, Persian King Cyrus allowed the Jews to return and rebuild. Under <strong>Zerubbabel</strong> and later <strong>Nehemiah</strong>, the <strong>Second Temple</strong> rose around <strong>516 BCE</strong>, renewing Jerusalem&#8217;s status as the spiritual capital.</p>
  1081.  
  1082.  
  1083.  
  1084. <p>This Second Temple era endured Roman control, Hellenistic influences, and internal strife. Yet Jerusalem never ceased to be the <strong>religious, cultural, and national center</strong> of Jewish life.</p>

  1092. <h3 class="wp-block-heading">Part III: Roman Rule, Destruction, and the Jewish Revolts</h3>
  1093.  
  1094.  
  1095.  
  1096. <p>In 63 BCE, Roman general Pompey captured Jerusalem. Over time, tensions escalated between Jewish nationalists and the Roman Empire, culminating in the <strong>Great Jewish Revolt (66–73 CE)</strong>. The Romans responded by destroying the Second Temple in <strong>70 CE</strong>, under General (later Emperor) Titus.</p>
  1097.  
  1098.  
  1099.  
  1100. <p>Still, Jerusalem was not abandoned by the Jews. A second uprising, the <strong>Bar Kokhba Revolt (132–135 CE)</strong>, further aimed to reclaim Jerusalem. It failed, and Emperor Hadrian <strong>renamed the city Aelia Capitolina</strong>, banned Jews from entering, and built pagan temples on Jewish holy sites.</p>
  1101.  
  1102.  
  1103.  
  1104. <p>But did Jews forget? Never.</p>
  1105.  
  1106.  
  1107.  
  1108. <p>Even in exile, Jews faced <strong>Jerusalem three times a day in prayer</strong>. During weddings, they broke a glass in mourning of the destroyed Temple. On Yom Kippur and Tisha B’Av, they wept for their beloved city. Rabbinical literature across centuries, from Babylon to Spain to Poland, declared: “Next Year in Jerusalem.”</p>

  1117.  
  1118.  
  1119.  
  1120. <p>Despite expulsions, pogroms, and Crusades, <strong>Jews never left Jerusalem completely</strong>.</p>
  1121.  
  1122.  
  1123.  
  1124. <ul class="wp-block-list">
  1125. <li>In the <strong>Byzantine period</strong>, small Jewish communities endured, often persecuted.</li>
  1126.  
  1127.  
  1128.  
  1129. <li>In <strong>638 CE</strong>, when Muslims conquered Jerusalem, Jews were again allowed back. Caliph Omar permitted Jewish families to return and settle in the city.</li>
  1130.  
  1131.  
  1132.  
  1133. <li>Under the <strong>Islamic Caliphates</strong>, Jewish communities in Jerusalem survived. By the <strong>11th century</strong>, Jewish pilgrims were visiting and occasionally settling.</li>
  1134.  
  1135.  
  1136.  
  1137. <li>During the <strong>Crusades</strong>, Christians massacred both Jews and Muslims. Yet by the <strong>13th century</strong>, Jews were back—building synagogues and studying Torah.</li>
  1138. </ul>
  1139.  
  1140.  
  1141.  
  1142. <p>By the <strong>16th century</strong>, under the <strong>Ottoman Empire</strong>, Jewish life re-emerged with strength. Notably, <strong>Don Joseph Nasi</strong>, a Jewish diplomat in the Ottoman court, tried to rebuild a Jewish city-state near Tiberias. In Jerusalem, Jews became <strong>the largest religious group by the mid-1800s</strong>, outnumbering both Muslims and Christians.</p>

  1151.  
  1152.  
  1153.  
  1154. <p>The 19th century saw the rise of <strong>Zionism</strong>—a Jewish national awakening tied deeply to Jerusalem. European Jews, facing anti-Semitism, sought not just refuge but return. The cry of “Jerusalem” fueled the movement.</p>
  1155.  
  1156.  
  1157.  
  1158. <p>Under the <strong>British Mandate (1917–1948)</strong>, Jewish institutions flourished in Jerusalem. The <strong>Hebrew University</strong>, <strong>Hadassah Hospital</strong>, and the <strong>Jewish Agency</strong> were all established in Jerusalem—not Tel Aviv.</p>
  1159.  
  1160.  
  1161.  
  1162. <p>Yet tensions rose. The 1947 UN Partition Plan designated Jerusalem as an <strong>international city</strong>. The Jews accepted it. The Arabs did not. In the 1948 War of Independence, Jordan <strong>invaded and illegally occupied East Jerusalem</strong>, destroying 58 synagogues and expelling every Jew from the Old City.</p>
  1163.  
  1164.  
  1165.  
  1166. <p><strong>West Jerusalem</strong>, however, remained under Israeli control. The <strong>Knesset</strong>, <strong>Supreme Court</strong>, and <strong>President’s House</strong> were all based there.</p>
  1167.

  1175.  
  1176.  
  1177.  
  1178. <p>In the <strong>Six-Day War of 1967</strong>, after Jordan joined Egypt and Syria’s attack on Israel, the <strong>Israel Defense Forces liberated East Jerusalem</strong>, including the Old City.</p>
  1179.  
  1180.  
  1181.  
  1182. <p>For the first time since 70 CE, <strong>Jews prayed again at the Western Wall freely</strong>.</p>
  1183.  
  1184.  
  1185.  
  1186. <p>In a gesture of peace, Israel allowed the <strong>Waqf</strong>, a Muslim religious authority, to manage the Temple Mount—while asserting full <strong>sovereignty over all of Jerusalem</strong>. It granted Muslims and Christians free access to their holy sites, something denied to Jews for centuries.</p>
  1187.  
  1188.  
  1189.  
  1190. <p>The <strong>Jerusalem Law</strong> of 1980 enshrined the city as Israel’s <strong>“eternal and indivisible capital.”</strong></p>

  1198. <h3 class="wp-block-heading">Part VII: Archaeology that Speaks Louder than Politics</h3>
  1199.  
  1200.  
  1201.  
  1202. <p>Historical records aside, the <strong>stones themselves speak</strong>. Decades of archaeological digs have uncovered:</p>
  1203.  
  1204.  
  1205.  
  1206. <ul class="wp-block-list">
  1207. <li>The <strong>City of David</strong>—David&#8217;s ancient palace and administrative center.</li>
  1208.  
  1209.  
  1210.  
  1211. <li><strong>First Temple period seals and bullae</strong> with names matching Biblical figures.</li>
  1212.  
  1213.  
  1214.  
  1215. <li>The <strong>Western Wall</strong>, part of Herod’s Second Temple complex.</li>
  1216.  
  1217.  
  1218.  
  1219. <li><strong>Jewish ritual baths (mikva’ot)</strong> from Second Temple neighborhoods.</li>
  1220.  
  1221.  
  1222.  
  1223. <li>Inscriptions like the <strong>“Jerusalem” stone from 100 BCE</strong>, the oldest Hebrew reference to the city.</li>
  1224. </ul>
  1225.  
  1226.  
  1227.  
  1228. <p>These findings <strong>corroborate Biblical accounts</strong> and contradict claims that deny a Jewish past.</p>
  1229.  
  1230.

  1232. <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity"/>
  1233.  
  1234.  
  1235.  
  1236. <h3 class="wp-block-heading">Part VIII: Jerusalem in Modern Jewish Identity</h3>
  1237.  
  1238.  
  1239.  
  1240. <p>For Jews, Jerusalem is not just geography—it is <strong>identity</strong>.</p>
  1241.  
  1242.  
  1243.  
  1244. <ul class="wp-block-list">
  1245. <li>It&#8217;s in every Jewish wedding.</li>
  1246.  
  1247.  
  1248.  
  1249. <li>It ends every Passover Seder.</li>
  1250.  
  1251.  
  1252.  
  1253. <li>It permeates Jewish music, poetry, dreams, and resistance.</li>
  1254. </ul>
  1255.  
  1256.  
  1257.  
  1258. <p>Even in Auschwitz, Jews whispered &#8220;Jerusalem&#8221; as they faced death. Survivors of pogroms, expelled from lands across Europe, Africa, and the Middle East, rebuilt their lives in the only capital they ever truly knew: <strong>Yerushalayim</strong>.</p>
  1259.

  1266. <h3 class="wp-block-heading">Part IX: International Recognition and the Road Ahead</h3>
  1267.  
  1268.  
  1269.  
  1270. <p>Despite opposition, <strong>countries are beginning to recognize reality</strong>.</p>
  1271.  
  1272.  
  1273.  
  1274. <ul class="wp-block-list">
  1275. <li>In <strong>2017</strong>, the <strong>United States</strong> formally recognized Jerusalem as Israel’s capital and moved its embassy there.</li>
  1276.  
  1277.  
  1278.  
  1279. <li>Several other nations followed suit: <strong>Guatemala</strong>, <strong>Honduras</strong>, and <strong>Kosovo</strong>, among others.</li>
  1280. </ul>
  1281.  
  1282.  
  1283.  
  1284. <p>The objection by some to Jewish sovereignty over Jerusalem is not rooted in history—it is rooted in denial.</p>
  1285.  
  1286.  
  1287.  
  1288. <p>No other nation has ever made Jerusalem its capital—not the Romans, not the Byzantines, not the Ottomans, and not the British.</p>
  1289.  
  1290.  
  1291.  
  1292. <p>Only the <strong>Jewish people made Jerusalem their soul and capital</strong>, and only the <strong>State of Israel restored it</strong>.</p>
  1293.  
  1294.  
  1295.  
  1296. <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity"/>
  1297.  
  1298.  
  1299.  
  1300. <h3 class="wp-block-heading">Conclusion: A City of Faith, Not Fiction</h3>
  1301.  
  1302.  
  1303.  
  1304. <p>In a world where historical revisionism is rampant, and religious politics threaten truth, one thing must be clear: <strong>Jerusalem belongs to Israel—not by conquest, but by legacy</strong>.</p>
  1305.  
  1306.  
  1307.  
  1308. <p>From <strong>King David</strong> to <strong>Theodor Herzl</strong>, from the <strong>Babylonian Exile</strong> to <strong>Ben-Gurion</strong>, from the <strong>Western Wall</strong> to the <strong>Knesset</strong>, this city has been the <strong>spiritual and national nerve center</strong> of the Jewish people.</p>
  1309.  
  1310.  
  1311.  
  1312. <p>Jerusalem is not an occupation. It is a homecoming.</p>
  1313.  
  1314.  
  1315.  
  1316. <p>As Isaiah prophesied 2700 years ago:</p>
  1317.  
  1318.  
  1319.  
  1320. <blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
  1321. <p><em>“Comfort, comfort My people&#8230; Speak tenderly to Jerusalem&#8230; For her warfare is ended.”</em> (Isaiah 40:1-2)</p>
  1322. </blockquote>
  1323.  
  1324.  
  1325.  
  1326. <p>That prophecy echoes today—in Hebrew, in the Jewish prayer, and in the Israeli flag flying high above the united, undivided, eternal capital: <strong>Jerusalem</strong>.</p>

  1351. <p>(Reuters) &#8211; A Dutch court on Monday confirmed a 2021 consumer watchdog &#8216;s ruling saying that Apple (AAPL.O), had abused its dominant position by imposing unfair conditions on providers of dating apps in the App Store.</p>
  1352.  
  1353.  
  1354.  
  1355. <p>The Rotterdam District Court ruled that the Dutch Authority for Consumers and Markets (ACM) was therefore right to impose an order subject to a penalty for non-compliance.</p>
  1356.  
  1357.  
  1358.  
  1359. <p>The court ruled that ACM was right in finding that dating app providers had to use Apple&#8217;s own payment system, were not allowed to refer to payment options outside the App Store, and had to pay a 30% commission (15% for small providers) to Apple.<br></p>
  1360.

  1363. <p>Apple said it was planning to appeal.</p>

  1366.  
  1367. <p>&#8220;This ruling undermines the technology and tools we&#8217;ve created to benefit developers and protect users&#8217; privacy and security, and we plan to appeal&#8221;, a company spokesperson told Reuters.</p>
  1368.  
  1369.  
  1370.  
  1371. <p>ACM in 2021 fined Apple 50 million euros ($58 million) for failure to comply with changes it had ordered to Apple&#8217;s app store to end practices it said violated European Union antitrust laws.</p>

  1437. <p>The health industry is full of noise. There’s no shortage of extreme boot camps, celebrity supplements, wellness apps, or biohacking gadgets. But for Dr. Bomi Joseph, true health is rooted in something quieter and more sustainable: <strong>consistency</strong>.</p>
  1438.  
  1439.  
  1440.  
  1441. <p>Dr. Bomi Joseph is an American scientist, longevity researcher, and health advisor with over four decades of experience in preventive health, plant-based medicine, and biohacking. He is the founder of the Deep Health® AI engine and Director of the Peak Health Center in Los Gatos, California. Known for his work in pharmacognosy and personalized wellness, Dr. Joseph advocates a disciplined, natural approach to health that integrates biology, technology, and long-term behavioral change.</p>
  1442.  
  1443.  
  1444.  
  1445. <p>“Twenty minutes of movement twice a day will do more for your health than anything you can cram into one brutal session.”</p>
  1446.  
  1447.  
  1448.  
  1449. <p>That line is more than a recommendation. It captures the core of Dr. Joseph’s philosophy: results don’t come from intensity, but from repeatable daily actions. Health is not earned through heroic effort once a week. It’s built through small, smart habits practiced over time.</p>
  1450.  
  1451.  
  1452.  
  1453. <p><strong>1. Consistency Over Intensity</strong></p>
  1454.  
  1455.  
  1456.  
  1457. <p>A culture obsessed with extremes, and short term results, often glorifies overtraining, detoxes, and high-performance hacks. Dr. Joseph challenges that mindset. Movement, he insists, should be frequent, light, and rhythmic, not traumatic. Whether it’s walking, bodyweight training, or basic stretching, what matters most is doing it daily. The complexity is slowly increased as the comfort grows. This gradual progression creates an astounding individual in a decade.</p>
  1458.  
  1459.  
  1460.  
  1461. <p><strong>2. Train the Body to Strengthen the Mind</strong></p>
  1462.  
  1463.  
  1464.  
  1465. <p>Dr. Joseph emphasizes that the mind and body are inseparable. One directly influences the other. As he writes in <em>Unfettered</em>:</p>
  1466.  
  1467.  
  1468.  
  1469. <p>“The body is the temple that the mind resides in. You cannot have a strong mind with a weak body.”</p>
  1470.  
  1471.  
  1472.  
  1473. <p>Yet strength alone isn’t enough.</p>
  1474.  
  1475.  
  1476.  
  1477. <p>“When you have a strong body, you still have a wild and uncontrolled mind.”</p>
  1478.  
  1479.  
  1480.  
  1481. <p>The key is deliberate mental training. Without it, physical health remains incomplete. Dr. Joseph’s message is clear: if you don’t train your mind, you&#8217;re in for a rough ride.</p>
  1482.  
  1483.  
  1484.  
  1485. <p>“There is no ‘mental health’ without mental strength.”</p>
  1486.  
  1487.  
  1488.  
  1489. <p><strong>3. Stress Less, Live More</strong></p>
  1490.  
  1491.  
  1492.  
  1493. <p>Rather than “managing” stress, Dr. Joseph advises eliminating it at its source. This means making intentional lifestyle changes, distancing yourself from toxic people, chaotic environments, and bad habits. A strong mind, cultivated through discipline and awareness, is naturally less reactive. Reducing stress isn’t just about feeling better. It’s essential for long-term physiological health.</p>
  1494.  
  1495.  
  1496.  
  1497. <p><strong>4. Prioritize Sleep Discipline</strong></p>
  1498.  
  1499.  
  1500.  
  1501. <p>According to Dr. Joseph, sleep should be treated with the same rigor as nutrition or training. Go to bed and wake up at the same time. Make your room dark and quiet. Keep temperatures between 65°F and 75°F. These habits aren&#8217;t glamorous, but they are vital. Sleep is essential to recharge the mood, body, immune system and health, without restful sleep, no other effort, physical or mental, can deliver its full benefit.</p>
  1502.  
  1503.  
  1504.  
  1505. <p><strong>5. Strong Joints Are the Secret of Youth</strong></p>
  1506.  
  1507.  
  1508.  
  1509. <p>Many people focus on how much weight they can lift. But Dr. Joseph urges people to pay attention to joint health and strength, especially in the hips and shoulders.</p>
  1510.  
  1511.  
  1512.  
  1513. <p>“The hip is the largest joint. The shoulders are next. These are the true indicators of youth.”</p>
  1514.  
  1515.  
  1516.  
  1517. <p>Healthy joints support graceful, efficient movement. They protect against injury and preserve independence as we age. Strength training should be balanced with flexibility and mobility work to keep joints supple and explosive.</p>
  1518.  
  1519.  
  1520.  
  1521. <p>“The joints are primarily bone, connective tissue, tendons and ligaments. There is too much emphasis on the bulk, ‘striated’ muscle and not enough on the tissue that connects the muscle to the bone. The concentration of nerves is in the connective tissue and not in the bulk muscle.</p>
  1522.  
  1523.  
  1524.  
  1525. <p>The explosive power of a pitcher, boxer, martial artist, sprinter, etc. comes from the explosiveness of the joints, not the size of the muscle.”</p>
  1526.  
  1527.  
  1528.  
  1529. <p><strong>6. Move Your Body, Not Just Weights</strong></p>
  1530.  
  1531.  
  1532.  
  1533. <p>Dr. Joseph reminds us that fitness is more about how well you move your own body than how much weight you can press. He proposes a simple test:</p>
  1534.  
  1535.  
  1536.  
  1537. <p>“Can you go from standing, to lying flat on your back, and back up again without using your hands?”</p>
  1538.  
  1539.  
  1540.  
  1541. <p>If you can’t, train until you can. If you can, try doing it fifty times. That alone is a complete workout. Movement patterns, natural, fluid, and full-body—are better indicators of true strength than machinery-based metrics.</p>
  1542.  
  1543.  
  1544.  
  1545. <p>Health is about how much force the body can generate. And force is mass times acceleration, NOT velocity.</p>
  1546.  
  1547.  
  1548.  
  1549. <p>“It’s not just the velocity with which you are moving. It’s the increase in velocity per fraction of a second that generates real force.”</p>
  1550.  
  1551.  
  1552.  
  1553. <p>Dr. Joseph gives an example of a college linebacker that he helped over a summer break. He had muscled up by lifting heavy weights to 190 lbs. (86 kgs), had an acceleration of 1 foot (0.3 meter) per second over 10 yards, and generated a force on impact of 25.8 Newtons. Dr. Joseph worked on his joint flexibility and explosiveness, and also his nutrition. His weight went down to 182 lbs but his acceleration went up to 4 feet/sec over 10 yards and he generated a force of 99 Newtons.</p>
  1554.  
  1555.  
  1556.  
  1557. <p>“His weight went down 4% but he hit 4 times harder.”</p>
  1558.  
  1559.  
  1560.  
  1561. <p>“Bulking up by lifting heavy weights is the fastest and easiest thing to do. But functionally it doesn’t get you far. Using your own body as the weight, and training it to move better and faster, is the true measure of health and fitness.”</p>
  1562.  
  1563.  
  1564.  
  1565. <p><strong>7. Eat What You’re Biologically Meant to Eat</strong></p>
  1566.  
  1567.  
  1568.  
  1569. <p>Dr. Joseph’s approach to nutrition is grounded in evolutionary biology.</p>
  1570.  
  1571.  
  1572.  
  1573. <p>“Your DNA is programmed to only eat what grows on trees, is buried in the soil, or is caught, on a rare occasion. Again and again, the entire season. Boring. But that’s your DNA.”</p>
  1574.  
  1575.  
  1576.  
  1577. <p>We were not designed to consume hyper-variety, artificial foods, or fast-food convenience. Our bodies thrive on simplicity and seasonality. Returning to this kind of eating, even if it lacks novelty, restores balance.</p>
  1578.  
  1579.  
  1580.  
  1581. <p>Currently, consumption of protein is being pushed by the media. “A two-week infant needs 10 to 14 times more protein than an adult human, normalized as mg amino acid per kg of body weight per day. I don’t see any articles written on this.”</p>
  1582.  
  1583.  
  1584.  
  1585. <p>“The largest mammal in the world is the Blue Whale- a vegetarian.”</p>
  1586.  
  1587.  
  1588.  
  1589. <p>“The largest land mammal in the world is the elephant- a vegetarian.”</p>
  1590.  
  1591.  
  1592.  
  1593. <p>“The largest primate, closest to a human male, is the Silverback Gorilla- a vegetarian.”</p>
  1594.  
  1595.  
  1596.  
  1597. <p>“The human body is amazingly complex. It makes and gets whatever it needs. It has an amino acid pool, with a two-week supply, that provides all the amino acids the body needs. You do not need that protein shake at all.”</p>
  1598.  
  1599.  
  1600.  
  1601. <p><strong>8. Avoid Mind-Altering Inputs</strong></p>
  1602.  
  1603.  
  1604.  
  1605. <p>Addictive substances and behaviors fragment the mind. Dr. Joseph warns against alcohol, tobacco, recreational drugs, excessive TV, online stimulation, and pornography. These habits slowly erode attention, discipline, and joy.</p>
  1606.  
  1607.  
  1608.  
  1609. <p>“You control your time and your mind…”</p>
  1610.  
  1611.  
  1612.  
  1613. <p>&#8230;but only if you protect them. “A bum and a billionaire both get 24 hours a day. The difference is how they use it.” (Unfettered- the book). It comes down to the mind. Instead of letting addictive substances and influences fritter time away, the mind can be honed to become sharper, engage more, and create more. Even relaxation is being in a mental state of contentment.</p>
  1614.  
  1615.  
  1616.  
  1617. <p><strong>9. Build and Nurture Social Connection</strong></p>
  1618.  
  1619.  
  1620.  
  1621. <p>Dr. Joseph also underscores the importance of human connection for emotional resilience. He encourages generosity, outreach, and service. Instead of waiting for others to check in, take initiative. Create meaning through community and volunteer.</p>
  1622.  
  1623.  
  1624.  
  1625. <p>“Don’t wait for a phone call. You initiate calls to friends. Keep calling them. They will miss your call, when you do not call.”</p>
  1626.  
  1627.  
  1628.  
  1629. <p>He reminds us that while happiness comes from within, our biology craves social connection. Giving your time to others is not just kindness. It’s preventive medicine.</p>
  1630.  
  1631.  
  1632.  
  1633. <p><strong>Health Is Earned with Patience</strong></p>
  1634.  
  1635.  
  1636.  
  1637. <p>There’s no product, procedure, or shortcut that can replace what Dr. Joseph calls the fundamentals. Real health isn’t found in complexity. It’s found in quiet mastery of the basics, practiced consistently, over time.</p>
  1638.  
  1639.  
  1640.  
  1641. <p>“I have been studying the human body, and health, for over 45 years. A PhD and beyond. I only know the tip of the iceberg. I am still seeking”</p>
  1642.  
  1643.  
  1644.  
  1645. <p>“The human body is amazingly complex. There are no ‘experts’. If someone tells you they are a ‘health expert’ you are looking at a fool.”</p>
  1646.  
  1647.  
  1648.  
  1649. <p>“Your body is very intelligent and it is a very complex feedback system. Only you know and control your body.”</p>
  1650.  
  1651.  
  1652.  
  1653. <p>“Own your health. Don’t outsource it.”</p>
  1654.  
  1655.  
  1656.  
  1657. <p>He isn’t selling a secret. He’s proving a point with every passing year. At nearly 67, with the metabolic profile of someone 40 years younger, he is living evidence that health is something you build and preserve not something you chase. It’s not about breakthrough science. It’s about biological wisdom, honored daily.</p>

  1678. <p>(Reuters) &#8211; Alphabet&#8217;s (GOOGL.O), Google on Wednesday appointed an insider to lead its future AI-powered product development, as AI enters a new phase of mainstream adoption, according to a memo from CEO Sundar Pichai to company leaders seen by Reuters.</p>
  1679.  
  1680.  
  1681.  
  1682. <p>Koray Kavukcuoglu, chief technology officer of Google&#8217;s DeepMind AI lab, is taking on the newly created title of chief AI architect. He will also become a new senior vice president, reporting directly to Pichai.</p>
  1683.  
  1684.  
  1685.  
  1686. <p>Kavukcuoglu, who will move to California from London, will also continue serving as Google DeepMind&#8217;s CTO, reporting to its CEO Demis Hassabis, Pichai said in the memo.</p>
  1687.  
  1688.  
  1689.  
  1690. <p>&#8220;In this expanded role, Koray will accelerate how we bring our world-leading models into our products, with the goal of more seamless integration, faster iteration, and greater efficiency,&#8221; Pichai said.</p>
  1691.  
  1692.  
  1693.  
  1694. <p>Alphabet faces market pressure to demonstrate financial returns on its AI-related capital expenditures, which are expected to hit $75 billion this year, while maintaining its bottom line against the threat of competing AI offerings, as well as antitrust enforcement.</p>
  1695.  
  1696.  
  1697.  
  1698. <p>Google said it would put artificial intelligence into the hands of more web surfers and teased a $249.99-a-month subscription for its AI power users at its annual I/O conference in May, along with a flurry of demos that included new smart glasses.</p>
  1699.  
  1700.  
  1701.  
  1702. <p>Pichai said in Wednesday&#8217;s memo that Alphabet was &#8220;entering a new phase of the AI platform shift.&#8221; He told reporters last month that the rise of generative AI was not at the full expense of online search.</p>
  1703.  
  1704.  
  1705.  
  1706. <p>Google has since signed, a deal to supply computing capacity to its biggest AI rival OpenAI via its cloud service, Reuters exclusively reported on Tuesday, marking a surprising collaboration between two prominent competitors in the AI sector.</p>

  1743. <p>(Reuters) &#8211; Nvidia (NVDA.O), will build its first artificial intelligence cloud platform for industrial applications in Germany, CEO Jensen Huang said at the VivaTech conference in Paris on Wednesday.</p>
  1744.  
  1745.  
  1746.  
  1747. <p>The technology, which will combine AI with robotics, will help carmakers such as BMW (BMWG.DE), and Mercedes-Benz (MBGn.DE), with processes from simulating product design to managing logistics.</p>
  1748.  
  1749.  
  1750.  
  1751. <p>In a series of Europe-focused announcements, Huang outlined plans to expand technology centres in seven countries, open up Nvidia&#8217;s compute marketplace for European companies, help AI model makers in several languages to become more advanced and aid in drug discovery by the likes of Novo Nordisk (NOVOb.CO)<br></p>
  1752.  
  1753.  
  1754.  
  1755. <p>&#8220;In just two years, we will increase the amount of AI computing capacity in Europe by a factor of 10,&#8221; Huang said in a nearly two-hour-long presentation in front of a packed audience.</p>
  1756.  
  1757.  
  1758.  
  1759. <p>&#8220;Europe has now awakened to the importance of AI factories and the importance of the AI infrastructure,&#8221; he said, laying out plans for 20 AI factories &#8211; large-scale infrastructure designed for developing, training and deploying AI models &#8211; in Europe.</p>
  1760.  
  1761.  
  1762.  
  1763. <p>Huang will be travelling to Berlin on Friday, said two people close to the matter, with one of the sources saying he is due to meet German Chancellor Friedrich Merz.</p>
  1764.  
  1765.  
  1766.  
  1767. <p>Nvidia did not specify where it would build the plant, at what cost or when construction would start. A German location, however, would be an early win for Merz&#8217;s new ruling coalition after Intel (INTC.O), and Wolfspeed (WOLF.N), last year suspended plans to build local factories.</p>
  1768.  
  1769.  
  1770.  
  1771. <p>While Europe has lagged behind the U.S. and China in developing AI technologies, the European Commission said in March that it planned to invest $20 billion to construct four AI factories.</p>
  1772.  
  1773.  
  1774.  
  1775. <p>Nvidia is also partnering European AI champion Mistral to create AI computing that runs on 18,000 of the latest Nvidia chips for European businesses.</p>
  1776.  
  1777.  
  1778.  
  1779. <p>&#8220;Sovereign AI is an imperative &#8211; no company, industry or nation can outsource its intelligence,&#8221; Huang said.</p>
  1780.  
  1781.  
  1782.  
  1783. <p>Huang has been travelling the globe to highlight the importance of businesses adopting AI and the dangers of falling behind.</p>
  1784.  
  1785.  
  1786.  
  1787. <p>On Monday he said in London that Britain lacked the computing infrastructure to deliver the full potential of its AI research base.</p>
  1788.  
  1789.  
  1790.  
  1791. <p>Beyond AI, Huang reiterated his view that quantum computing technology is at an inflection point.</p>
  1792.  
  1793.  
  1794.  
  1795. <p>Quantum calculations could crack problems that would demand years of processing from Nvidia&#8217;s most advanced AI systems.</p>
  1796.  
  1797.  
  1798.  
  1799. <p>Quantum computing will solve &#8220;some interesting problems&#8221; in the coming years, Huang added.</p>
  1800.  
  1801.  
  1802.  
  1803. <p>The CEO made similar comments in March at Nvidia&#8217;s annual software developer conference, when he spoke about the potential of quantum computing, walking back comments he made in January when he said useful quantum computers were 20 years away.</p>
