Reader comment on item: Florida Museum Celebrates the Loss of Hagia Sophia
Submitted by BASIL BAKLIS (United States), May 30, 2017 at 08:59
DEAR MR. PIPES
MANY THANKS FROM THE DEPTH OF MY HEART FOR YOUR COMMENTS BELOW!
MEHMET II WAS SO DISTRESSED FROM THE CARNAGE INSIDE AGHIA SOPHIA THAT CRYING AND SCREAMING CHASED AWAY ALL HIS SOLDIERS HIMSELF.
KEMAL ATATURK CUNNINGLY TURNED IT INTO A MUSEUM BUT MUFTIYA ERDOGAN HAS ALREADY ORGANIZED MUSLIM PRAYERS THERE AND HE MIGHT TURN IT AGAIN INTO A MOSQUE. WHAT A PITY!
...
BEST REGARDS
BASIL BAKLIS
