GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT AFGHANISTAN
Afghanistan, [1, 3] which borders Pakistan in the east and south, Iran in the west, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan and Tajikistan in the north, and China in the east with a small border, gained its independence on 8 August 1919 with the Anglo-Afghan Treaty of 1919 [2]. Afghanistan, which is an important geopolitical country, has been the focus of large migrations and has been subjected to many invasions. Afghanistan was occupied by Soviet forces in 1979 and by the United States in 2001. The current Constitution of Afghanistan, consisting of 12 chapters and 162 articles, was adopted on January 26, 2004, and the name of the state was included in the Constitution as the “Islamic Republic of Afghanistan” [3]. After the US withdrew from Afghanistan in 2021, the Taliban took over the country. The Islamic Republic of Afghanistan is an Asian country that does not border the sea with an area of approximately 652,100 km2 and a population of 33 million [1]. Its capital is Kabul and its other major cities are Kandahar, Herat, Mazar-i-Sharif and Jalalabad (Image 1).
The Inconsistency of Theories on Nation and the Real Content of the Concept of Turk
Written by Hüseyin DAYIWithin this study, understandings of nation in Islamic civilization and “modern-secular” Western civilization are compared both with each other and on socio-political structures. These comparisons should be useful to know what is appropriate for Turkey.
Under the influence of the French Revolution, the “nation” became a new socio-political force in Europe. In the studies carried out to define the nation, the ideas of philosophers were used, not sociological observations. There was no consensus on any of the very different definitions produced on unrelated grounds such as race, native language and citizenship. Meanwhile, instead of accepting historical integrations, each state tried to build its own nation by choosing one of the definitions made. Thus, although they were known as “nation-states”, none of the states belonged to a clearly definable nation, and it was not possible for a state to artificially build its own nation. In the meantime, many states were fell apart, while the newly established ones faced the same danger.
On the other hand, the concept of nation in Islamic civilization has existed since the beginning and its meaning is clear. As a term found in the Qur'an, 'nation' refers to a religion and its believers. In the early periods, the common language of the “Nation of Islam” was only Arabic. In the course of time, Persian and Turkish also became common languages in different regions. Thus, the term “Turk” became the name of Muslims of different ethnic origins and different native languages who used Turkish as a common language.
Later, with the modern-secular definitions of the West, the definitions of “Turkish nation” became unclear and controversial in Turkey, and the integrity of the Turkish nation was in danger of being disintegrated.

Somali, Afrika Boynuzu bölgesini oluşturan ana ülkelerden biridir ve bu da onu İsrail’in Afrika politikası bağlamında önemli bir ülke yapmaktadır. Orta Doğu'daki petrol yataklarına yakınlık, Aden Körfezi ve Hint Okyanusu bakan konumu, Kızıldeniz ve Süveyş Kanalına giden yol olan Bab al-Mandab Boğazı'nın güney girişini kontrolü Afrika Boynuzunun önemini artıran faktörlerdendir. Bu benzersiz stratejik özellikleri nedeniyle bölge, bölgesel ve uluslararası güçlerin ilgi odağıdır.

No one supported the Turkic Uyghur Muslims, and now the pressure on the Chinese Muslims has begun.
When China and Muslims are mentioned, we think of the oppressed Uighurs, who are the brotherly Turkic society, and partly Turkic peoples such as Kazakhs, Kyrgyz and Salar. However, we know very little that the number of Chinese Muslims in China has higher number than the Turks, they can be found easily all over China. Unfortunately, the persecution started against them today.

Mercenaries are Panacea
In the early 1990s, the western world brought its mercenaries to Iraq on bail from a private military company. Western states have been using Legionaries since medieval ages to maintain the exploitation order in the Middle East, especially in Africa. When mercenary groups charged with preventing Iraq from procuring the stability of Iraq, which were divided into three due to internal unrest when people started to suffer from human resources, Al-Qaeda was invented and it became a new and very cheap mercenary source based on the ideological base of Muslims from Islamic countries. When the al-Qaeda ideology was insufficient after Syria was messed with chaos, ISIS was invented and put on the ground to create new resources. Today, with Turkey's effective fight, Al Qaeda and ISIS had been ended in the region. In Africa, organizations like Boko Haram continue their activity. When the west financing terrorism and some of the Gulf countries under its guidance had difficulty could not afford to stand against the Turkish Armed Forces and returned to their country in the coffin, and even sometimes did not return, they became have to use mercenaries from Russia with a new organization and use them in Syria.
First to Turkish Justice, Then to Divine Justice

28 February Postmodern Coup
In the early 90s, the CIA-NATO gang convinced the Laicistic-Secular segment in Turkey that it was time to “ban all symbols that evoke Islam and stop Muslims from taking part in public offices” in the public opinion, as part of the Moderate Islam Project.[i]
Thus, they would hit two birds with one stone;
- The patriotic Muslim people would be isolated from the state administration in both politics and bureaucracy. Banning the Welfare Party… With the accusation of reactionarism and dismissal from civil service without trial, very serious injustices were committed until the early 2000s.
- FETO, which has been prepared by the CIA since the 70s, would be provided with the opportunity to settle in cadres in all fields (especially the Muslim section expelled from the public sphere), especially in the Armed Forces, Police Force, National Intelligence Organization, Judiciary and National Education. Collaborating with the Laicistic-Secular segment, FETO skillfully placed its own members in the vacancies of those dismissed under the label of reactionarism.
While the postmodern coup, briefly known as 28 February, caused serious traumas to the religious people, it did not take long for the Laicistic-Secular people to wake up from the euphoria of victory. They started to be evicted from the Turkish Armed Forces by FETO with trials such as Sledgehammer and Ergenekon. In other words, the snake they had grown started to bite them too.
The Laicistic-Secular community, which has always been hostile to religion and religious people, has never been able to realize that the religious people, who constitute the majority of the citizens of the Republic of Turkey, do not have enmity towards them.
