Is it true that the ottoman sultan families where Alevi-Bektashis ???

[@ZodieRoadie]

No not them they were most probably sunni Sufi Muslims but their elite jannisary troops certainly were

[@muzza9467]

This is never good

[@user-lv4ov5rp6d]

Why?

[@Timucin01]

@@user-lv4ov5rp6d because for years now they're working on replacing original Alevi/Bektashi dede's with people that will indoctrinate the members of those Djemevi's with a more conservative Sunni-like doctrine. Thus causing the Alevi/Bektashi people to become more like themselves, rather than "different" and a "threat". They're always messing with Alevi/Bektashi people.. why now, after all these years all of a sudden Erdogan is agreeing to the foundation of something like this? Years of sunni-dominance etc...
