The original name is Turkic and it Urdu version (especially first one) is very similar to how I read it.

Apart from a few idiots nobody claims it is Turkish dialect.

There are some shared vocabulary, but thats pretty much it. Kurdish is much closer to Farsi.

Re:Updated Google Maps shows destruction of the city of Rafah on Wednesday September 30, 2026 @12:07PM (#49910757)
So with your argument do you imply tens of thousands civilians murdered in the ongoing genocide are "Hamas" then?
Re:Updated Google Maps shows destruction of the city of Rafah on Tuesday September 29, 2026 @08:40AM (#49892206)
"Hamas and Gaza" You mean Palestinians right? But yeah, it seems genocide is a profitable business.
Re:Updated Google Maps shows destruction of the city of Rafah on Tuesday September 29, 2026 @08:28AM (#49892062)
Prolonged "surgical" strikes continued so long that there is almost nothing left to operate on I guess. And your justification is that some farms are not completely destroyed? What a disingenuous remark.
I stand by what I said, are you gatekeeping HN now? This is a tech news site, I don't care if he once was a co founder.

I think it is more about people are a bit sick of filthy rich people giving this kind of advice. I would also not read anything he preaches.
What is your beef with UN and the statement itself? its quite funny actually. Do you support the mentioned law? Hard to understand what you are trying yo say.
What is your opinion about Israel's crimes then. Do you deny the genocide?

Are you sure? what about fossils and other remains? So far there is zero evidence that there was an advanced or non advanced civilization. Unfortunately this nonsense is the bread and butter ot pseudo archeologists.

I have a question, what do you understand from verse 12:2, what is your personal interpretation?
Eeh, not really. German's think because some Swiss resent them a little, it is all about them.

EU countries, especially Italy, Germany and Portugal are the biggest immigration source in Switzerland (EU/EFTA immigration ~60%), Germany is ~13% of the total.

Non EU, especially outside of Eurepean immigration is a smaller part, but if you looked at SVP pamphlets you see a very different picture.

Re:Iran launched unsuccessful attack on UK's Diego Garcia on Saturday March 21, 2026 @07:51PM (#47472813)
Iran is Turkey's neighbor and had relatively good relations for very long time, even with the strongman it doesn't make a shred of sense to change this. Especially for USA which has a tendency to back stab Turkey in any occasion (They could not get away from the time when Turkey did not allow them to invade Iraq from north, the previous BS war)
Re:Iran launched unsuccessful attack on UK's Diego Garcia on Saturday March 21, 2026 @01:55PM (#47469441)
flatten with what?
Re:Iran launched unsuccessful attack on UK's Diego Garcia on Saturday March 21, 2026 @01:53PM (#47469429)
Attacking as in a couple of rockets heading US bases which were intercepted. Of course nothing would happen, why would Turkey (or other European countries) join this pointless war?
Re:Iran launched unsuccessful attack on UK's Diego Garcia on Saturday March 21, 2026 @01:37PM (#47469246)
Like they flattened Afghanistan? It is funny people thinks land war in an huge mountainous country with 90 million people is easy.
It didn't set the vibe though, After the strong start it is slow, wobbly and incoherent. It is ok, but could be much better.
I see, so this was to free Iranians from their dictators right? How is it going so far?
"Ah look but they haven't carped bombed Iran" was their argument and it sounds really weird.
Oh so your line is carpet bombing? The attackers has shown they can do almost any atrocity many times (already killed thousands of woman and children in Gaza with zero remorse or accountability)
