Five fold portrait of Winston Churchill by old dutch painter Frans Groenendijk

This video is only partly inspired by the publication of my book ’49:49Available in the shop, but refers mostly to my older (E-)book IS, the Kurds and the Caliphate; Turkey: from sick occupant to paranoid neighbor.

(Videos are published on social media like TikTokYouTube. See LINKTREE in the footer).

The text is mostly based on the section Mosquitos and minor powers in chapter II: The last Mohammedan Empire. The chapter starts with that famous quote from Russian Czar Nicolas: “WE HAVE ON OUR HANDS A SICK MAN – A VERY SICK MAN” (1853).
