Recep Tayyip Erdogan, the authoritarian incumbent president, is ahead of his rival Kemal Kilicdaroglu after the first round of voting in Turkey’s presidential election. Neither candidate reached the 50% threshold required to avoid a second round, but Mr Erdogan secured 49.5% of votes while Mr Kilicdaroglu, who represents an alliance of opposition parties, received 44.9%. The election will now go to a run-off on May 28th. Mr Erdogan outperformed opinion polls, which had given Mr Kilicdaroglu a significant lead in the final days of the hard-fought campaign.

BLOGPOST UPDATE IN PROGRESS

What’s up, everybody! Here are JETLAG RADIO 848 & BENKYO RADIO 848. MOOC (Massively Online Open Courses) have been highly popular in the past couple of years. I’ve completed a couple. There are extremely educative. One of the future courses I plan on taking is called GIS, which refers to Geographic information systems. For example, the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency, this agency monitors everything from space, and logs everything. This is extremely useful, when dealing with governments who perform Human Rights Violations, and war crimes, such as Russia, or Israel.

The Nakba 75th years anniversary is here, and despite Israel’s attempt to erase history, here is a lot of information from The IMEU. Why is this important? Because Palestinians live under oppression, and if Israel truly does not control the Planet, they will let Palestinians speak.

Until Next Time!
