Turkey's Secret Empire: Destroying a Country
MDU Press Office
Despite a endless wave of popular uprisings, the nation state of Israel is still occupied by Turkey. Attempts at common ground have been ignored, with the Turkish government refusing to budge.
However, the status quo has been maintained. Israel knows it will eventually regain its territory and defeat the invading Turks, much as, this party hopes, the Greeks will. However, a sinister new development has taken effect. The statement in question was made some days ago, but we believe things should not 'die down when it comes to statements such as this:
"If admin creates palestine, we are ready to give these land to palestinians"
-Modu Shanya
As an idle threat, it means nothing. As a threat from the President of one of Turkey's largest parties, it slightly becomes more ominous. The implication of this statement is clear: The Turkish are willing to use their power as occupiers to give all Israeli land to the Palestinians, effectively making Israel cease to exist as a country. The admins creating a new nation to encompass the West Bank and the Gaza strip is not inconcievable, and if it happens, Turkey will use it as an excuse to destroy Israel.
Not only is this a disturbing development to the game, it directly ignores the guidelines separating eRepublic from RL issues. It will set a dangerous precident and will be constantly cited as an example by those that continue to make the game more close to the real world in a negative sense.
The Movement for Democratic Unity has advocated the freedom of Israel and supported heroic freedom fighters such as Moshe Dayan since the beginning. It is not fair that some invasions, some occupations, are forgotten and declared 'none of our business'. If you want to help, read and subscribe to Moshe's independence newspaper: http://www.erepublik.com/en/newspaper/jew-with-a-view-178267/1 and prevent the dissolution of a country whose solo crime was to lay next to an expansionist nation such as Turkey.

Good work
Sorry to burst your bubble, but this has also been said by Israelis, and in reference to only 1 Israeli region
also, they said this at least 2 weeks ago!
Thanks Horace!
@Consurtius: I've done my research here, they're not talking about the same thing. The Turks would give the entire country over.
It is a good article indeed, but they just wanted to provoke us with that, don't worrie that will never happen, Palestine was never a country and it isn't in this game that it will be one.
Any way it's curious to see them wanting to give a Palestina, but nothing about Greece or Kurdistan.
Kurdistan is not part of Turkey, more Afghanistan, yet they fight their separitist wars against turkey...that's ebuff RL tho
Well as a turkish ancestor, i can only say well done turkey for your ambition and strength, even if you are using it in the totally wrong direction. To everyone that says that this is becoming too 'life like', i say:
-What is it becoming more like when people suggest a 'weather system'
-What is it becoming more like when people demand a range of political settings... dictatorship, democracy, etc.
-What is it becoming more like when people attempt to resist an invasion from another country in hope of freedom and returning land to their rightful country.
I agree that the dissolving of Israel as an eCountry would be quite plainly put, crap, but what are we to expect when we have such realistic conditions, and so many randomly minded people all over the eWorld? In a place with almost 60,000 people, we cannot afford to be so thinly minded as to think that such a thing would never occur - it is nature for people to experiment in games, as it is nature for conflict.
Im not saying that it is the right thing for the Turks to do, and im neither saying that im sure it will happen, but too many times people have voiced their opinions on eRep becoming "TOO REALISTIC". If you want an arcade game, im sure www.flashgames247.com will please your pallet. If you want a hard way to have a wank, www.bennetts.co.uk/biking/biker-games-fun/games.asp will suite your needs. BUT if you want a so much deeper experience, DEPENDANT on the facets of reality, dont MOAN about the very cogs that make eRep tick...
