ISIS TAKES ANOTHER MAJOR BIBLICAL CITY (PALMYRA) AND BEGINS THE SLAUGHTER OF ITS CITIZENS WITH ROWS OF PEOPLE BEHEADED


THE MUSLIM SLAUGHTER OF CHRISTIANS CONTINUES IN THE MIDDLE EAST! NEWSLETTER FORWARDED BY ERASMUS OF AMERICA - MAY 23, 2015

 

       CHRISTIANS DON'T BAND TOGETHER ENOUGH AND PROTECT ALL CHRISTIANS FROM NEEDLESS SLAUGHTER. CONSTANTINOPLE FELL TO THE OTTOMAN TURKS IN 1453 MARKING THE TECHNICAL END OF THE MIDDLE AGES AND END OF PART OF THE CHRISTIANS STILL LIVING FREE IN THE MIDDLE EAST. WESTERN CHRISTIAN EUROPE DID NOT HELP CONSTANTINOPLE DEFEND ITSELF WHEN ASKING HELP FROM THE WEST. WITH A FEW MINOR POINTS OF DIFFERENCE IN TAUGHT DOCTRINE, WESTERN CHRISTIANS DID NOT FEEL A SPIRIT OF COMMON CAUSE TO DEFEND CONSTANTINOPLE AS PART OF OFFICIAL CHRISTIANITY. CHRISTIANS OF THE WEST STILL LEAVE ABANDONED THE CHRISTIANS IN THE MIDDLE EAST WHEN BEING MASS SLAUGHTERED. I CONSIDER CHRISTIANS IN THE MIDDLE EAST TO BE MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS IN CHRIST! DO YOU? EARLY CHRISTIANITY TAUGHT THAT ALL CHRISTIANS IN THE ANCIENT ROMAN EMPIRE WERE ONE PEOPLE AND NATION IN CHRIST BUT SPREAD OUT ACROSS THE ROMAN EMPIRE. THEREFORE CHRISTIANS IN ONE PART OF THE ROMAN EMPIRE HELPED OUT CHRISTIANS IN OTHER PARTS OF THE ROMAN EMPIRE WHEN THEY COULD. THEY USED TO CALL THEMSELVES CATHOLIC CHRISTIANS. CATHOLIC  IS LATIN FOR UNIVERSAL AND MEANT BACK THEN THAT THEY WERE  UNIVERSAL CHRISTIANS AND MEMBERS OF THE UNIVERSAL CHRISTIAN CHURCH ON EARTH. 

      I STAND FOR PASSAGE OF THE OMNI LAW SHOWN ON OUR NATIONAL WEBSITE. ONCE PASSED IN AMERICA, WE CAN REVIVE A CHRISTIAN WESTERN CULTURE THROUGHOUT CHRISTIAN NATIONS AND HELP PROTECT THE RIGHTS OF CHRISTIANS IN THE WORLD INCLUDING IN AMERICA WHERE CHRISTIANITY IS UNDER HEAVY ATTACK FROM THE OBAMA WHITE HOUSE TRYING TO OUTLAW CHRISTIANITY FROM THE U.S. ARMED FORCES AND OTHER METHODS OF ATTACKS ON CHRISTIANS ACROSS AMERICA. BUT OBAMA GIVES TO ISLAM IN AMERICA ALL THE LEGAL RIGHTS THAT HE IS TRYING TO DENY TO CHRISTIANS IN AMERICA. ONCE WE PASS THE OMNI LAW, ALL THIS LEGAL NONSENSE IS ENDED IN AMERICA AND THE FULL LEGAL RIGHTS OF CHRISTIANS IN AMERICA WILL BE RESTORED TO ITS TRUE ORIGINAL LEGAL MEANING UNDER THE U.S. BILL OF RIGHTS! FULL NAME OF OUR OMNI LAW IS SHOWN ON OUR WEBSITE AS "THE OMNIBUS CIVIL RIGHTS ACT FOR AMERICA" AND GIVES TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE THE LEGAL RIGHT OF REFERENDUM OVER WASH., D.C. WHEN IT TRIES TO SHOVE DOWN THE THROATS OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE LAWS AND POLICIES CONTRARY TO THE U.S. CONSTITUTION, U.S. BILL OF RIGHTS, AND THE WILL OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE AS A NATION.

FOR YEARS AND KNOW HOW YOU WIN IN WASH.,D.C.! WASH., D.C. IS NOT RUN ON IDEALISM, BUT ON POLITICAL PRESSURE IF YOU WANT YOUR VERSION OF LAWS AND POLICIES PASSED IN WASH., D.C.!

     BELOW IS A BRIEF CAPSULE HISTORY OF THE FALL OF CONSTANTINOPLE TO THE OTTOMAN TURKS IN 1453. CONSTANTINOPLE WAS WELL FORTIFIED WITH HUGE DEFENSE WALLS BUT THE TURKS HAD CANNONS BIG ENOUGH TO BLOW HOLES IN THESE HUGE WALLS WHICH IS WHY CONSTANTINOPLE FELL SO FAST TO THE OTTOMAN TURKISH  ARMY THERE IN 1453. HISTORICAL NOVELTY! I DESCEND FROM THE FOUNDER OF CONSTANTINOPLE IN THE EASTERN HALF OF THE ANCIENT ROMAN EMPIRE! THE OLD CITY OF BYZANTIUM WAS TURNED INTO THE SHOWPIECE CONSTANTINOPLE WHICH GOVERNED THE EASTERN HALF OF THE ROMAN EMPIRE AND WAS THE EASTERN CAPITAL OF CHRISTIANITY BACK THEN. ROME WAS THE WESTERN AND MORE SENIOR CAPITAL OF CHRISTIANITY. AND CONSTANTINOPLE HAD ONE OF THE TWO LARGEST AND MOST IMPRESSIVE CHRISTIAN CATHEDRALS IN THE WORLD UNTIL TURNED BY THE CONQUERING TURKS INTO A MUSLIM MOSQUE AFTER MASS CHRISTIAN BLOOD FIRST FLOODED THE STREETS OF CONSTANTINOPLE.

By nationality, there were 5,000 Greeks and 2,000 foreigners, mostly of Genoese and Venetian origin.[12] [a]: 50,000[13][14][15][16]– 80,000[17][18][19] [b]: 100,000[7]–160,000[20][21]–200,000[3]to 300,000[22] 70 ships,[23] 20 galleys[24] 70 cannons[25] (14 large and 56 small caliber)[26] 90 - 126 ships [27] Casualties and losses 4,000 killed in total (including combatants and civilians)[28][29] 30,000 were enslaved or deported[30] Unknown but heavy[31][32] a: Figures according to recent estimates and Ottoman archival data.

They also did not want the Ottomans to interfere with their trade in the Black Sea and Mediterranean. The Venetians' efforts mainly included giving Constantine XI ships and a total of 800 soldiers in February 1453. The Venetians also promised that a larger fleet would arrive to save Constantine, this fleet would be full of ammunition, fresh soldiers and supplies. This fleet never came. f: The Genoese captain Giovanni Giustiniani Longo was wounded in battle, but managed to escape, he died during the early days of June 1453. g: This Venetian captain was not an official sent by Venice, instead, he was the leader of the Venetian colony in the city and guaranteed his full support by the Ottomans navally, by supplying them with the ships the Venetians had in their harbour.[4]

[show] v t e Byzantine–Ottoman Wars

The Fall of Constantinople (Greek: Άλωση της Κωνσταντινούπολης, Alōsē tēs Kōnstantinoupolēs; Turkish: İstanbul'un Fethi Conquest of Istanbul) was the capture of the capital of the Eastern Roman (Byzantine) Empire by an invading army of the Ottoman Empire on Tuesday, 29 May 1453. The Ottomans were commanded by 21-year-old Ottoman Sultan Mehmed II, who defeated an army commanded by Byzantine Emperor Constantine XI Palaiologos. The conquest of Constantinople followed a seven-week siege that had begun on Friday, 6 April 1453.

The capture of Constantinople (and two other Byzantine splinter territories soon thereafter) marked the end of the Roman Empire, an imperial state which had lasted for nearly 1,500 years.^[34] The Ottoman conquest of Constantinople also dealt a massive blow to Christendom, as the Ottoman armies thereafter were free to advance into Europe without an adversary to their rear. After the conquest, Sultan Mehmed transferred the capital of the Ottoman Empire from Edirne to Constantinople. Several Greek and other intellectuals fled the city before and after the siege, with the majority of them migrating particularly to Italy, which helped fuel the Renaissance.

The conquest of the city of Constantinople and the end of the Byzantine Empire was a key event in the Late Middle Ageswhich also marks, for some historians, the end of the Middle Ages.^[35]
