Recep Tayyip Erdogan And His AK Party Wins Yet Another Rigged Election As Turkey Takes Giant Step To Becoming A Dictatorship
Turkey held Sunday’s elections under a state of emergency declared after a failed military coup in July 2016. Recep Tayyip Erdogan was declared the winner.

Recep Tayyip Erdogan and his ruling AK Party took a comfortable lead in Turkey’s presidential and parliamentary elections on Sunday, according to preliminary partial results, boosting the president’s hopes of extending his 15-year rule.
EDITOR’S NOTE: Recep Tayyip Erdogan is an enemy of Israel in particular as well as being an enemy of freedom in general. The election he and his minions the AK Party won today are not exactly what you might call a ‘free and fair’ election result. Erdogan views himself more as a messianic religious leader than a political one, even going so far as to say he wanted to model his ruling style after that of Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party. Many Christians believe that Erdogan could be the Antichrist. I don’t know if I would go that far, but, he sure has a lot of Antichrist-like moves and moments. The only thing stopping Erdogan from becoming a full-blown dictator is the fact that Turkey has no natural resources and as such remain dependant on financial and economic relationships with the West who would immediatly apply crippling sanctions if he were to take Turkey fully rogue. But if Erdogan ever gets that piece of the puzzle figured out, then it will be Germany 1933 all over again.
The initial results had been expected to give Erdogan and his Islamist-rooted party a strong lead and it was expected to shorten as more votes are tallied across the nation of 81 million people. But an AK Party official said the party expected Erdogan to win more than the required 50 percent to avoid a second round runoff. An unexpectedly strong showing by the AK Party’s alliance partner, the nationalist MHP, could also mean Erdogan securing the parliamentary majority he seeks to govern freely.
Sunday’s vote ushers in a powerful new executive presidency long sought by Erdogan and backed by a small majority of Turks in a 2017 referendum. Critics say it will further erode democracy in the NATO member state and entrench one-man rule.
With 70 percent of votes counted in the presidential race, Erdogan had 55 percent, ahead of his closest rival, Muharrem Ince, of the main opposition, secularist Republican People’s Party (CHP), on 29 percent, broadcasters said.
However, an opposition election platform which is doing its own vote tally based on results gathered by its observers at polling stations gave Erdogan only 43.5 percent and Ince 33.9 percent, based on nearly 12 percent of overall votes cast.
How Recep Tayyip Erdogan Came To Power In Turkey
In the parliamentary contest, the AK Party had 45 percent and its MHP ally nearly 12 percent, based on 61 percent of votes counted, broadcasters said. The CHP had 21 percent and the pro-Kurdish Peoples’ Democratic Party (HDP) 9.7 percent.
Both the AK Party official and an HDP lawmaker said they expected the HDP to exceed the 10 percent threshold to enter parliament. Turnout nationwide was high at around 87 percent for both contests, the state broadcaster said.
FRAUD FEARS
CHP party spokesman Bulent Tezcan criticised state media coverage of the election results, saying they were trying to manipulate the public’s perception of the results in order to demoralise Erdogan’s opponents and encourage election monitors to stop scrutinising the counting of votes.
Tezcan said the CHP’s own voting tally suggested that support for Erdogan remained below the 50 percent required to win the presidency in the first round.
Even The Liberal New York Times Sees Erdogan As A Dictator In Training
Opposition parties and NGOs have deployed up to half a million monitors at ballot boxes to ward against possible electoral fraud. They have said election law changes and fraud allegations in the 2017 referendum raise fears about the fairness of Sunday’s elections.
Erdogan said there had been no serious voting violations.
“Turkey is staging a democratic revolution,” he told reporters after casting his own vote in Istanbul on Sunday. “With the presidential system, Turkey is seriously raising the bar, rising above the level of contemporary civilisations.”
Erdogan, the most popular but also divisive leader in modern Turkish history, argues the new powers will better enable him to tackle the nation’s economic problems – the lira has lost 20 percent against the dollar this year – and crush Kurdish rebels in southeast Turkey and in neighbouring Iraq and Syria.
Investors would welcome the prospect of a stable working relationship between the president and the new parliament, although they also have concerns about Erdogan’s recent comments suggesting he wants to take greater control of monetary policy.
Erdogan has declared himself an “enemy of interest rates”, raising fears he will pressure the central bank to cut borrowing costs after the election despite double-digit inflation.
He brought forward the elections from November 2019, but he reckoned without Ince, a former physics teacher and veteran CHP lawmaker, whose feisty performance at campaign rallies has galvanized Turkey’s long-demoralised and divided opposition.
Turkey held Sunday’s elections under a state of emergency declared after a failed military coup in July 2016. This state restricts some freedoms and allows the government to bypass parliament with decrees. Both Erdogan and Ince have said they will lift the state of emergency as president.
Erdogan blamed the coup on his former ally, U.S.-based Muslim cleric Fethullah Gulen, and has waged a sweeping crackdown on his followers in Turkey, detaining some 160,000 people, according to the United Nations.
The president’s critics, including the European Union which Turkey still nominally aspires to join, say Erdogan has used the crackdown to stifle dissent. Erdogan says his tough measures are needed to safeguard national security. source

Now It’s Iran’s Turn As Hundreds Of Missiles And Drones Rain Down On Tel Aviv With Some Evading Iron Dome And Inflicting Terror On Jewish Civilians

The IDF warned Friday evening that Israel is set to come under what could be a massive Iranian missile and drone attack after Israel conducts strikes against Iran’s nuclear and military facilities and personnel.
The majority of the missiles sent by Iran on Friday were either intercepted by Iron Dome or missed their desired targets, as most analysts figured would happen. But in that mix of falling rockets, about a half dozen got through and lit up portions of Tel Aviv pretty good. Upwards of 63 Israelis were wounded to various degrees in the action. American THAAD systems joined forces with Iron Dome to defend, asking some to wonder if the United States is about to get dragged into a Middle East regional war. And why are Russia and China so quiet right now? That’s the memo.
“From whence come wars and fightings among you? come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members?” James 4:1 (KJB)
In typical Iranian style, the conflict was quickly shifted to directly attacking civilians instead of going after Israeli military targets. Iran and their proxies in Lebanon, Yemen and Gaza love to conduct operations standing behind children, launching attacks from active hospitals. Israel is either going to do to one of two things now. Either they will accomplished their stated goal of preventing Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons, or they will exchange fire with Iran and call it quits like they did in 2024. But getting rid of those nuclear reactors is a big, big job, and it won’t be accomplished in days, weeks or even a few months. War is on deck, and maybe in more than just the Middle East.
Iranian attack toll rises: At least 44 injured, two in critical condition
FROM YNET NEWS: Magen David Adom Director Eli Bin reported on Friday, shortly after the Iranian missile attack on Israel that at least 44 people were injured, with two in critical condition, while the others suffered minor to moderate wounds due to shrapnel. All were evacuated to various hospitals in central Israel for treatment.
An Israeli security source said late Friday, amid Iran’s ongoing retaliatory attack against the country, that the U.S. is actively taking part in intercepting the Iranian munitions. Five to seven Iranian missiles landed in the Tel Aviv area late Friday as Iran began its retaliatory attack against Israel, sending dozens of ballistic missiles. Tehran sent over 100 ballistic missiles against the country as the IDF reported a third missile volley is expected to arrive in the region soon.
Even with Iron Dome in Israel along with help from THAAD missile systems from the United States, some of the rockets fired by Iran are getting through with scores seriously wounded. The big battle is yet ahead, pray for the the peace of Jerusalem. Psalm 122:6 (KJB) pic.twitter.com/aX9JZHzy5N
— Now The End Begins (@NowTheEndBegins) June 13, 2025
The IDF Spokesperson’s Unit late Friday warned for a second time Israel was coming under and Iranian attack. “The IDF identified missiles launched from Iran toward the territory of the State of Israel. Defense systems are operating to intercept the threat. The public is instructed to enter a protected space and remain there until further notice.”
— LoriAnnforJesus (@KJVGal777) June 13, 2025
The IDF said on Friday evening that the Air Force completed strikes on Iran’s nuclear facility in the area of Isfahan. “The site conducts a ‘reconversion’ process of enriched uranium. This is the next stage after uranium enrichment in the nuclear weapons production process.
“The strike destroyed a facility for metallic uranium production, infrastructure for enriched uranium conversion, laboratories and additional infrastructure,” Spokesperson Brig. Gen Ephraim Dafrin said.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is expected to speak on Friday with U.S. President Donald Trump as the Israeli Air Force continues strikes in Iran entering their 12th hour, including attacks in Iran’s western Hamadan province. Netanyahu has called a security briefing for 6:30 p.m. local time to evaluate the strike campaign in Iran, dubbed Operation Rising Lion. He will be joined by Defense Minister Israel Katz, Mossad Director David Barnea, IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir and other senior security officials. READ MORE

Iran Vows A Fiery Response To Overnight Airstrikes On Nuclear Facilities As Israel Says There Is Much More Action Coming Over The Next Few Days

Israel renewed airstrikes against Iran early Friday morning as the Natanz Nuclear Plant appeared to be in ruins, no word on strike against Fordow and Isfahan.
For the past 16 years, NTEB has written countless number of articles speculating on what it would look like when the day finally came for Israel to strike on the nuclear facilities in Iran. Last night, the whole world watched it happen, and the response to it on social media was quite predictable. The enemies of Israel were kind enough to remind us who and where they are, and that will be useful information in the days ahead. Israel’s official state plane, the ‘Wings Of Zion’, has left Israeli airspace presumably with Prime Minister Netanyahu onboard. That’s the memo.
“And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.” Genesis 12:3 (KJB)
Of course, last night as impressive as it was, is simply the opening round of what promises to be a protracted fight. Israel is seeking to eliminate Iran’s nuclear capability, but it is a slippery slope into all out war. No word as of yet from Russia and China, both of whom have a signed mutual defense pact with Iran. We shall soon see if it’s worth the paper it’s printed on. Keep in mind, Israel’s attack on Iran last night is just one of the many things we will be discussing on a special Prophecy News Podcast ’emergency broadcast’ starting Saturday at Noon EST. See YOU there!
Iran vows ‘painful fate’ for Israel, fires 100 drones in 1st response to attack; IAF downs them
FROM THE TIMES OF ISRAEL: Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei warned Israel on Friday it faced a “bitter and painful” fate in response to the attack launched overnight against the Islamic Republic’s nuclear program, as Tehran launched 100 drones toward Israel in its initial response.
Israel alerted its citizens on Friday morning that Iran had launched more than 100 drones — which would take several hours to arrive — telling people nationwide to remain near bomb shelters. Three hours later, the IDF Home Front Command lifted its instruction to Israelis to remain near shelters without a single siren sounding in the country, after it worked to shoot them down outside Israeli territory.
So far, Iran’s strongest response to Israel’s precision strikes last night have been of the cartoon variety. Will Iran meaningfully respond, are they capable of it? pic.twitter.com/ZxmFY353KD
— Now The End Begins (@NowTheEndBegins) June 13, 2025
The IDF said late Friday morning that it had “control over the situation,” though it did not yet confirm shooting all of the drones down. Restrictions remained in effect for schools and workplaces in addition to public gatherings or events.
Israel “opened its wicked and blood-stained hand to a crime in our beloved country, revealing its malicious nature more than ever by striking residential centers,” Khamenei said Friday, in a statement carried by the state-run IRNA news agency.
The comments came after Israel launched a deadly wave of attacks that killed the Iranian armed forces’ chief of staff, the head of Iran’s Revolutionary Guards and top nuclear scientists.
“With this crime, the Zionist regime has set itself up for a bitter and painful fate and it will definitely receive it,” Khamenei said. READ MORE

Israel Launches ‘Operation Rising Lion’ And Eliminates Nearly All IRGC Commanders In First Wave Of Attacks On Iran’s Nuclear Facilities In Early Morning Hours

Moments ago, Israel launched Operation Rising Lion, a targeted military operation aimed at dismantling the Iranian nuclear threat to Israel’s survival. This operation will continue for as long as necessary to eliminate this danger.
Operation Rising Lion launched as a complete and total surprise for the military of Iran, it happened so fast that Iran never even had time to sound the warning siren. In moments, precision airstrikes took out, one by one, nearly the entire top brass of the IRGC, as they lay sleeping in their beds. For over 16 years, NTEB has written about what this day might look like, tonight it happened. That’s the memo.
“Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.” Psalms 121:4 (KJB)
Iran will certainly retaliate, that is if they still retain the ability to do so, but as of yet, no news of an Iranian counterattack has surfaced. Iran has been bragging recently about have advanced long range missiles, perhaps they do, but they better move fast. Israel is pounding them with everything they have, so it begs the question of will Russia or China, both of whom have a signed military defense pact with Iran, step in and help their ally out? Below is the message that Benjamin Netanyahu gave the Jewish people and the entire world tonight about the reasons for Operation Rising Lion, and why the time had come.
‘Never again is now’: Netanyahu announces strikes on Iran nuclear targets
FROM THE JERUSALEM POST: For decades, the leaders of Tehran have openly called for Israel’s destruction. They have backed up their genocidal rhetoric with a nuclear weapons program. In recent years, Iran has produced enough highly enriched uranium for nine atomic bombs—nine. More concerning, Iran has recently taken unprecedented steps to weaponize this uranium. If not stopped, Iran could develop a nuclear weapon in a very short time—it could be a year, or even just months. This is a clear and present danger to Israel’s survival.
Eighty years ago, the Jewish people were victims of a Holocaust perpetrated by the Nazi regime. Today, the Jewish state refuses to be a victim of a nuclear Holocaust, especially one initiated by the Iranian regime. As Prime Minister, I have consistently made it clear: Israel will never allow those who call for our annihilation to develop the means to carry out their threats. Tonight, Israel has backed those words with action.
OPERATION: RISING LION Israel is pounding Iran with wave after wave of blistering airstrikes. News coming in now that the entire top brass of the IRGC have been eliminated. Iran didn’t even have time to sound the warning sirens. Total surprise. pic.twitter.com/2lZyasXx8o
— Now The End Begins (@NowTheEndBegins) June 13, 2025
We have struck at the heart of Iran’s nuclear enrichment and weaponization programs. We targeted Iran’s primary enrichment facility in Natanz. We also targeted leading nuclear scientists involved in Iran’s nuclear weapons project. Additionally, we struck at Iran’s ballistic missile program. Last year, Iran launched 300 ballistic missiles at Israel. Each missile carries a ton of explosives, threatening the lives of hundreds. Soon, those missiles could carry nuclear warheads, putting not hundreds, but millions at risk. Iran is preparing to produce tens of thousands of these missiles within three years.
What’s happening right now is only the first phase of the complete destruction of Iran’s nuclear program. No going back now. #flight777 https://t.co/VLohAluHpf
— Now The End Begins (@NowTheEndBegins) June 13, 2025
I assure the civilized world: we will not let the world’s most dangerous regime obtain the world’s most dangerous weapons. And Iran plans to give these nuclear weapons to its terrorist proxies, making the nightmare of nuclear terrorism all too real. The increasing range of Iran’s ballistic missiles would bring that nuclear nightmare to the cities of Europe and, eventually, to America. Remember, Iran calls Israel the “small Satan” and America the “great Satan,” and for decades, it has led millions in chanting “Death to Israel” and “Death to America.” Today, Israel is responding to those genocidal calls with action—and with a call of our own: Long live Israel and long live America.
If Iran is planning on retaliating, they better do it soon. Operation Rising Lion is getting the job done. Say bye-bye to your nuclear sites, and enjoy the revolution. Go Israel. pic.twitter.com/CRRPq1oKcH

Our action today will help make the world a much safer place. I want to thank President Trump for his leadership in confronting Iran’s nuclear weapons program. He has repeatedly made it clear that Iran cannot have a nuclear enrichment program. Today, it is evident that Iran is simply buying time, refusing to meet the basic requirements of peaceful nations. This is why we have no choice but to act—and to act now.
The hardest decision any leader faces is to stop a threat before it fully materializes. Nearly a century ago, facing the Nazis, a generation of leaders failed to act in time. They were paralyzed by the horrors of World War I and determined to avoid conflict at all costs—and they got the worst war in history. They adopted a policy of appeasement. They ignored all the warning signs. That failure led to World War II, the deadliest conflict in history, claiming 60 million lives, including six million Jews—one-third of my people.
After that war, the Jewish people and the Jewish state vowed, “Never again.” Well, never again is now. Today, Israel has shown that we have learned the lessons of history. When enemies vow to destroy you, believe them. When enemies build weapons of mass destruction, stop them. As the Bible teaches us: When someone comes to kill you, rise and act first. This is exactly what Israel has done today. We have risen like lions to defend ourselves.
Over 3,000 years ago, Moses gave the people of Israel a message that has steeled our resolve ever since: “Be strong and courageous,” he said. Today, our strong and courageous soldiers and people stand united to defend ourselves against those who seek our destruction. And in doing so, we defend many others, and we roll back a murderous tyranny. Generations from now, history will record that our generation stood its ground, acted in time, and secured our common future. May God bless Israel. May God bless the forces of civilization everywhere. Thank you. READ MORE
