Erdogan’s assault on history

[Al Ahram] The regime of Ottoman Turkish President His Enormity, Sultan Recep Tayyip Erdogan the First
...Turkey's version of Mohammed Morsi but they voted him back in so they deserve him. It's a sin, a shame, and a felony to insult the president of Turkey. In Anatolia did Recep Bey a stately Presidential Palace decree, that has 1100 rooms. That's 968 more than in the White House, 400 more than in Versailles, and 325 more than Buckingham Palace, so you know who's really more important...
turned the Hagia Sophia, the Church of the Holy Wisdom in Istanbul, the most iconic church of the Orthodox Christian world, into a mosque last weekend.

#2  I seem to recall that part of the Jihad is to turn infidels' religious and cultural landmarks into mosques as a symbol of their subjugation. Much about this when they tried to build a mosque or mosque-like structure at the site of the Twin Towers.
