Turkey positions itself to lead a post-Islamic Iran Middle East

Turkish President and Leader of the Justice and Development (AK) Party, Recep Tayyip Erdogan addresses to the party members during the AK Party Group Meeting at the Grand National Assembly of Turkiye in Ankara, Turkiye on February 25, 2026.


As the regional architecture of the Middle East undergoes a violent transformation, observers are beginning to realize that the collapse of the Islamic Republic of Iran is not the end of the story but the beginning of a far more complex chapter.

The conflict, dubbed Operation Roaring Lion, has entered a phase where the systemic deterrence of the mullahs is effectively finished. However, history teaches us that the moment of greatest victory is often the moment of greatest danger.

We have reached what historians now call a 1919 Moment, a juncture where the primary threats of the past decade ⁠– Sunni jihadism and the Iranian proxy network ⁠– have been beaten, but the victorious alliance is already beginning to fracture.

Make Istanbul Constantinople again, make Haga Sophia a church again, give back half of Mount Ararat to Armenia, and remove the disgusting Muslim crescent from the national flag. Then talk.

Turkey is still a rump state of the Ottoman Empire, still fantasizing about the 'good old days'. Don't be fooled.
