We all know that there is nothing new under the sun and that what has happened before will happen again. Right? I reckon we just may have uncovered the mystery of the AC. Please bear with me and you will see where this is going.
Consider the story of Kemal Ataturk. Considered the Father of Turkey. Ataturk is omnipresent in Turkey. His portrait is in every home and place of business..and on the postage stamps and bank notes. (I am quoting from the 3rd link below). His words are chiselled on important buildings. Statues of him abound. Turkish politicians, regardless of party affiliation, claim to be the inheritors of Ataturk's mantle. In this first link, you will see a giant mask of Ataturk that appears chiselled into a large rock face. (Image of the beast?)

Strangely, Ataturk died on November 10th, 1938. This was the 2nd night and the same year that Kristalnacht occurred. In the 3rd link you will see how Ataturk's life bears eerie similarities to Adolf Hitler's life. It seems - to me, at least, that Ataturk died at a pivotal moment in history when Hitler donned the mantle of a type of AC. A man hell bent on destroying the Jewish people. Reading this article brought about an amazing sense of deja vu. History is repeating itself! Note Ataturk's dealings with the Greeks and the Eastern Mediterranean! Note Turkey's previous genocide of the Armenian people - which the Russians assisted with - even though the Armenian Socialist Republic had been a Russian creation. HISTORY IS REPEATING ITSELF.
In this next link is the story of when Erdogan appeared as a hologram to a party political meeting. Why a hologram? This brought to mind the false prophet bringing the image of the beast to apparent life. Making it appear to speak. It is a FASCINATING link with photos. As an aside - take note of the hand gesture Erdogan is using in the photo. Two other famous politicians use this hand gesture. One is the German Chancellor - Angela Merkel. And the other is Pres. Donald Trump. I am just saying....Pres Trump uses this hand gesture a lot.
This 3rd link holds the story of Kemal Ataturk. If you have time, it will amaze you to read the similarities to Hitler's early political life. Also - bear in mind - we are told in scripture that the AC will NOT have a religious affiliation. Ataturk was a confirmed secularist. He brought about the overthrow of the whole system of Islamic Law.
This 4th link holds a short YT clip made by a canny observer of world politics and Turkey's increasing belligerence on the world stage. The narrator observes that the world leaders who behaved in a crazed manner and began wars with several different countries at once (a la Hitler) are the very ones that foment world wars. This tactic seems to work. Nobody seems willing or able to stop them. This YT clip is well worth your time. Will Erdogan use the image of Ataturk in his quest for domination over the Middle East?
