Erdogan’s practices are not limited to disregarding civility and political e practicin abuse of international norms, and observing the principles of protocol known (Sofagate scandal) in the international community and stipulated in the literature of the United Nations. If the matter were limited to protocols, it would be easier. However, Erdogan has also failed in diplomacy, such as claiming that the area of ​​Turkey is too small for the Turks and that expansion is necessary. He has generally failed in politics and in managing socio-economic aspects. Erdogan wants the Turkish nation to multiply and wants the number of Turkish people to double to about 150 million Turks. Erdogan was shocked when he learned that the fertility rate of Turks has declined to 2.7%, and he wants to catch up with the Syrian rate, which is the highest in the world (3.4%). Erdogan considers birth control and its regulation to be treason, and considers the increase in population to be an expression of increased productivity. Erdogan did not ask about the state of the consumer problem in the case of population inflation.

The truth is, we do not want to give advice to Erdogan, and the Syrians will not shed tears over the poor conditions of the Turks, the successors of the Ottomans. What the Ottomans did in this country for 400 years may drive some to gloat over them, especially since the successors of the successors of the Ottomans have not disavowed their dark past, nor have they apologized. Rather, they are trying in every way to revive and reproduce it. Despite that, I will not gloat, nor will I participate in Erdogan’s savagery and bestiality.

In early 2021, inflation reached a very high level in Turkey, and it continues to rise and approach the Syrian level, despite much reservation about the figures that come from the government in Turkey and Syria. It can be said that the economic deterioration in Turkey is as clear as it is in Syria, and the Syrian deterioration is at the forefront of the deteriorations in the world, while the Turkish one is following the Syrian one. This is proven by the rate of bankruptcy and inflation, and the decline in the value of the local currency to unprecedented levels.

The relationship between population growth and economic growth has been a subject of interest to many thinkers worldwide. Marx and Durkheim were preoccupied with this issue, and Malthus was among those who paid the most attention. It must be acknowledged that there are many differences in how the figures related to the problem of societal organization and its connection to the economic situation are interpreted. The matter is complex and varies from one environment to another, differing between countries, and even within the same country between rural and urban areas. There is no single methodology that is suitable for all times and places. What is certain is that uncontrolled population growth is generally very harmful, and boasting about one’s large numbers will not put bread on the Day of Judgment. Excessive population growth is a disaster!

The historical context in which procreation was encouraged is very different from the current historical context, and we do not know from the texts the reason behind the clear and explicit pride in procreation. However, it is possible that this matter is related to the political and military situation, as in those times Muslims carried out many raids and wars, at a rate of more than two raids or wars per year. Therefore, there was a dire need for the human element, that is, the warrior carrying the sword. Jihad and violence require the sword and the warrior. Procreation was the pride of the Prophet on the Day of Resurrection. The question here is, is jihad in the form that primarily requires the human element necessary in this era? Is jihad with wars or raids, which numbered about one hundred raids or more, possible now?

There is no need for jihad nor is it possible to practice it. The proliferation that Erdogan is promoting is nihilistic and harmful, and the Syrian experience has proven that. Disasters do not fall from the sky, but are made on the ground. Let us see what result the proliferation of Erdogan and other Islamists will lead to!
