He repeatedly said that he is the grandson of the Ottomans to promote his projects to the peoples of the region although his predecessors and grandparents' reputation has been full of criminality, murder and abuse against these peoples since ancient times.

The Turkish President Recep Teyyip Erdogan does not miss any opportunity to declare himself as the grandson of the Ottomans, as he tries to restore the glories of this country which has passed since time. He does not only rule Turkey, but intervenes in the affairs of the Arab countries, especially Egypt.

It seems that it is necessary to mention the successor of the Ottomans and those who cry for the removal of this state with the reality of its ancestors and grandparents, and what they have committed against the peoples of the region of looting, killing and abuse and the beginning was in Egypt.

False tricks to invade Egypt under pretext of protecting Islam and saving the people

It seems that the deep lie and the obvious tricks are an inherited deal to the Ottomans' successor Erdogan. For more than half a century, the Mamluks ruled Egypt at the time when the Caliph al-Mutawakel, the Abbasid Caliph, was forcibly transferred to Istanbul to surrender it to Salim I.

Where the Ottomans under the leadership of Salim invaded Egypt, and justified that by defending the Islamic religion and protecting the sharia from what they called the injustice of the Mamluks.

The Ottomans relied on a letter sent by the sheikhs and judges of al-Sham asking for their rescue from the injustice of the Mamluks and the disruption of the Sharia according to the advocators of this caliphate.

The justifications of the defenders of this state also included that Qansuah al-Ghouri, Sultan of the Mamluks collaborated with the Shiite Safavid State which was at the war with the Ottomans, and that the Turkish Sultan Salim had no plans to enter Cairo, but he wanted to secure the Ottoman Empire. It was Marj Dabeq Battle where Qansuah was killed in, and here the bad day in which the Ottomans entered Egypt came.

The Egyptian historian Mohamed bin Iyas al-Hanafi was the best historian who wrote about the stage of the Ottomans' violations against the Egyptians, where Ibn Iyas said, "On Zihadjeh 12 -922 AH, Cairo received news that the Ottomans' crossed the borders of Egypt with Gaza and their arrival to El-Arish. Toman Bai began digging trenches around Cairo, establishing fortifications and preparing cannons. He also moved the market to a safe place for the soldiers to buy provisions in preparation for confronting the invaders. The mobilization was also announced, including the people of the country from the common people, or the Mamluks of the Sultan."

In January, 1517, there was a day of calamity and sorrow, and according to the Egyptian historian Mohamed bin Iyas, it was like what happened by the soldiers of Holako in Baghdad. It was the great calamity that has not happened in Cairo before. This is how the historian describes the day when the Ottoman Turks entered or what he calls "the Ottoman" led by Salim Khan.

The Egyptian historian added, "Thus, the goal was to break into Cairo, kill the Egyptians, loot the country's good, steal its civilized achievements, and not support the religion, as the Turks claimed. Those who support religion do not burn and destroy mosques, where the Abbasid caliph al-Mutawakel was moved to Istanbul and was forced to give up the succession to Salim."

The Egyptian historian tells stories of injustice that occurred and wounded the Egyptians by the Ottomans in several places of his book, where ten thousand of the common Egyptian killed in one day, and according to the description of Ibn Iyas for this fateful day, "The Ottomans deployed panic among the commoners and the boys, and their bodies were left on the roads at Bab Zuwila."

Salim I transferred the most skillful craftsmen in Egypt to Istanbul, that caused the ruin and stopped the industries of which Egypt has become famous for, until 50 crafts became extinct.

The Ottomans committed crimes against Islam, stormed into al-Azhar, the Mosque of Ibn Tulun and al-Hakem Mosque, burnt Sheikho Mosque, destroyed the tomb of Mrs. Nafisa and set foot on her grave. The Ottomans also looted, vandalized, and imposed fines on marriage and divorce, so marriage and divorce were prevented in those days.

The Ottomans' descendants on the approach of their ancestors

With the arrival of the Justice and Development Party to the rule in Turkey, its first speeches were addressing the Arab countries trying to put poison in honey by playing on the strings of the demands of the peoples of freedom and Egypt had the largest share.

When the revolution began in Egypt in January 25, 2011, the Muslim Brotherhood took advantage of these protests to take control of the country. After the Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak stepped down in February 11, 2011, and preparations for civil elections began, the Muslim Brotherhood and its political wing represented by Freedom and Justice Party decided to nominate Mohamed Morsi in the elections.

On Sunday, June 24, 2012, the Egyptian Presidential Elections Commission announced that Mohamed Morsi won the second round of the elections by 51.7%. Hours after his victory, Morsi resigned the presidency of the Freedom and Justice Party and the membership of the Guidance Bureau of the Muslim Brotherhood. Erdogan's intervention in Egyptian affairs increased through the Muslim Brotherhood.

One of the most important aspects is that Turkey seeks to benefit from the economic aspect. Turkey has sought to make Egypt an alternative to Syria and a transit route for its goods in the region. The two sides signed a memorandum of understanding for the transit of Turkish goods to the Arabian Gulf through Egyptian ports known as the Roro Agreement which came into force in April 2012. After that, the arrival of Mohamed Morsi to the helm of government in Egypt increased visits between the two parties, and the economic exchange increased until Egypt became a colony of Turkey in which the Brotherhood's thought was implemented.

But this situation prompted the Egyptian people to revolt against Mohammed Morsi. The army intervened and Morsi was deposed on 3 July 2013, and he was arrested along with Brotherhood leaders.

Erdogan's projects in Egypt were struck hard by the fall of the Muslim Brotherhood because the Brotherhood did not offer any solution to any economic, social or political issue, sought to control the state and gave Morsi a greater role in his powers than Mubarak himself which deepened the popular revolution. Mohammed al-Sisi and the army played a precise role, and they were able to carry out military action, benefiting from an atmosphere of anger against the Muslim Brotherhood.

As usual, the descendants of the Ottomans and on the approach of their predecessors do not leave a chance even after their defeat. They targeted the people, and after the fall of the rule of the Muslim Brotherhood, the terrorist operations spread in Egypt, where the terrorists targeted the peoples of Egypt, especially the Copts, and they were activated in the Sinai, prompting the authorities to carry out a security operation against them.  Many reports showed the involvement of the Brotherhood with Turkish support in these terrorist activities.
