Yes yes man.... this gesture is international, he maybe didn't wanted to punch hin for real, but this gesture it's still never positiv don't matter the culture.... and he did this because he said it's a French man. Some people didn't get over history yet 😅....
I'm a Turk too, and what the man did wasn't well-intented. Yes, he didn't want to hurt you at all but he was racist. I might be so wrong but I think he might be said ''beynini sikeyim'' which doesn't mean well. Even his son warned the old racist man, "No, don't do it.'' It's funny and sad how an old person acts like this.
It is very nice to see such a man in my hometown. I wish ı were there to show very common values. We are waiting all of the people around the world to see this city where the oldest temple in the world was.
Been there. Truly is a magnificent city. Id recommend going on a tour of Kurdish cities like Urfa, for anyone who is interested in history and culture. Cheers.
Appreciate it However most historians claim it to have a Kurdish heritage. I personally do believe it is about the history not current population percentages. Thanks for the input though.
@@ceyhunyavuz2381 majority of people is kurdish in urfa. there is no doubt about it. And its a kurdish city. Turks are minority yet arabs have the second biggest population. I can prove this by talking about every district in urfa, cos its where i live. So dont talk about anything if you have no clue bout it. Btw if you wonder, im not a kurdish nationalist. I dont care. But hateful behaviours towards kurds is disgusting. People can deny the facts, but they'll stay remain.
Majority in Sanliurfa is Arabs and than Turks. Kurdish party does not have even 20 percent in Şanlıurfa, and that 20 percent is not from Urfa but came from towns from around, Şanlıurfa was never Kurdish city in history.
The reason the name Is Şanlı-Urfa and not just urfa is because the Turkish people fought gloriously on the land in the war of independence thats why its name is Şanlı/Glorious Urfa

I haven’t got the faintest idea. But I used to pay a similar price in downtown Istanbul, just meters behind the Galata Tower, a very touristy area I might add, and some places were slightly less than that, or slightly more at 53-58 liras, and it’s served in a rather huge portion, along with being served with french fries and vegetables and a basket of bread. Oh, and those were fancy restaurants. But hey, the lira was practically worth nothing two months ago, and it’s worth even less today.
@@khalidalali186 and while you foreigners enjoy eating and traveling, what do you think that most of us Turks (90%) can neither eat these foods nor travel between our cities because the government stealing our money and resulting bad economy?
And yet the AKP still gets elected into office, and wins every election hahaha. You reap what you sow lol. Vote him out of office if he’s your scapegoat. Turkey always had a horrible economy, and an extremely volatile one for that matter. Remember the 80s and early 90s. None of this is new. I’ve been sending money to my Turkish friends every month, to the point where 3% of my monthly salary, is equal to two salaries of a couple I’ve helped out in late June.

Love the content brother. As a kurd i would appreciate it if you could give a cultural description of these cities you visit. Urfa is a Kurdish city. And culture is different than turkey.
@UCWUEOQtOYVQdncgrzQloXNw Arabs only came after the expansion of muslim empires. All surrounding villages of the area(urfa) are Kurdish. Also the city has a Kurdish majority population. Safe to say that the turks are new ( part of the turkish government’s game to shift population majority by incentivizing relocation of turks to Urfa and claiming the city as turkish). So historically speaking, even before islam and Ottomans, urfa has always been a Kurdish city and will always be a part of Kurdistan.
Nope. Fiction history. Give me one sample writtin on something before 1071 pottery, castle, wall. Bridge. Nope you cant find anything kurdish. This is also Turkiye. Urfa is city that belongs to Turkiye. The kurdish people in there is citisen of Turkiye. TURKIYE's kurd our kurd. Lunatic.
Mate how ignorant you gotta be to claim that. There is great mention in Kurdish folklore about urfa long before the ottomans came. Xenophon and ibn kathir make indications that the region was Kurdistan. Ibn kathir states in his book that the man who lit the fire prophet Ibrahim was to be thrown in was a Kurd(meaning the people of that time in that region were Kurds, as Arabs came after prophet Ibrahim and Turks came after mongols and Seljuks). Sure, now its in Turkish territory but that doesn’t change its history and origin. Turks love claiming Kurdish heritage and culture as their own; One example, Gire mirazan(Kurdish name) was literally the historical name of “gopekli tepe” until the discovery brought international attention and turkey re-names it to a Turkish name “gopekli tepe” to claim as their own. Turkey knows its history is not ancient and diverse( Nomads originating from central asian. Etc mongolia ) ,and so they try to feed on Kurdistan’s (birthplace of Abrahamic religions) rich history and culture.

Thank you for exploring North of Kurdistan❤️ The reason that you didn't see enough tourists there is that Urfa is a Kurdish city and the Turkish state does not want the city to develop in terms of tourism and encourages tourists to visit only Turkish cities. Because Kurdish development is a threat to them and they recognize Kurdish cities as zones of war and terrorism.
that's the biggest lie i've heard in a while... the main reason why most of the people avoid going there is because of your so called "freedom warriors" marxist PKK :) nice try though, good propaganda.
