Upon seeing this picture of slojo
I was reminded of a curse, a curse that came with a warning
” When I rise from the dead, the world will tremble”
During the summer of 1941, Josef Stalin ordered the opening of the mysterious tomb in Samarkand, Uzbekistan. The superstitious locals warned the dictator of the Soviet Union about the curse. The archeologists opened the tomb on the 20th of June 1941. The sarcophagus had the curse written on the top.
Two days later, on the 22nd of June 1941, Hitler invaded the Soviet Union. Stalin believed the curse and they returned the body to the tomb.
His very name struck fear in the heart of men
Timur as he was known in the East
in the West we call Tamerlane
The brutality we have seen of late is nothing new
ready yourself for more
How long does it take to cut the heads off 10,000 Men, Women and children with army of 50,000?
having in his possession 90,00 heads,
how many skull towers could be built Tamerlane knew for did it
while reading about Tamerlane try to imagine what he could have done with the equipment left behind
Tamerlane wasn’t a Mongol. he was a Muslim Turk
In his youth, Tamerlane sustained an injury in battle, which made him disabled. He limped with the right leg and was without the two fingers on his right hand. His enemies called him the Timur-i-Lang Timur the Lame.
Europeans misspelled his nickname as the Tamerlane.
Being disabled at a time when hand-to-hand combat and mounted archery were a prerequisite of political power would have been a crushing blow to most men.
the young Tamerlane was a natural leader, charismatic and intelligent. His inspiration was Genghis Khan, the mightiest conqueror of all times. Tamerlane wanted to rebuild the great Mongol Empire.
In 1395, Tamerlane destroyed his former ally Tokhtamysh, the khan of the Golden Horde. His army could have conquered Moscow, but they turned around and attacked Persia.
Tamerlane was a skilled military tactician and a cruel opponent.
” He never lost a battle”
The Ottoman campaign (1400–1402) is the best example of his military genius.
The Ottoman Sultan Bayezid I mocked Tamerlane by saying he was a coward. He also wrote that the Ottoman army will rape Tamerlane’s wives. Tamerlane decided to teach the Ottomans a lesson.
He invaded in 1400 with an enormous army. Bayezid withdrew from the siege of Constantinople and headed towards the invader. Tamerlane evaded the Ottomans and laid siege on Ankara.
Surprised to have Tamerlane behind his back, the sultan ordered a forced march back to the city of Ankara.
His soldiers were dying from thirst, yet they knew there was a river near the city. But when they reached the river, there was only a small trickle of water. Tamerlane’s engineers had built a dam to keep water away from the Ottoman army.
Exhausted and thirsty, the Ottomans fought against the fresh Tamerlane’s forces. In the middle of the battle, the Tartar cavalry switched sides and attacked the Ottomans. Tamerlane had contacted the Tartars months before the actual battle. He had promised them a rich reward for the betrayal of the Ottomans.
Tamerlane’s troops annihilated the Ottoman janissaries. They dragged Bayezid I back to Samarkand. The sultan died in captivity, serving as a footstool for Tamerlane to mount his horse. During the state dinners, they paraded him in an iron cage, while his wife had to serve the guests naked.
Don’t be surprized to see people paraded soon for it’s nothing new
During his march towards Delhi in 1398, Tamerlane captured 100,000 Hindu prisoners. His soldiers killed every single prisoner to avoid their revolt during the battle
At first, Tamerlane left Baghdad in peace. But the leader of the city insulted Tamerlane by calling him a cripple.
In 1401, Tamerlane returned with an enormous army. After they breached the city walls, Tamerlane gave his soldiers the following order:
They erected 120 skull towers, made of 90,000 severed heads, across the ruins of Baghdad.
Isfahan, a blooming Persian city, immediately surrendered in 1387 to Tamerlane. But they made a big mistake. They revolted and killed Tamerlane’s tax collectors and garrison. Enraged, Tamerlane ordered every man, woman, and child to be killed. His soldiers had a quota for the number of severed heads they had to collect.
They massacred the entire population of 100,000 people. A historian recorded twenty-eight towers of 1,500 skulls each before he stopped. He couldn’t count anymore because he felt disgusted by the count.
Tamerlane brought the children, younger than seven years, in front of the city gates. His cavalry then trampled the children, while their horrified mothers were watching. He led the execution by riding first over the children.
Perhaps that why there are 5 million heading to Europe as I type
In 1399, he promised no bloodshed to the citizens of Sivas in central Turkey) if they surrendered.
After the citizens opened the gates, Tamerlane kept his word. He had all of the 3,000 citizens buried alive
spilling no blood
Tamerlane invaded also Armenia and Georgia. His soldiers killed innocent people and burned the entire cities. They took over 60,000 slaves.
Pay attention to this part CDC
It is said Tamerlane died of a virus, the Common Cold
it’s been said Tamerlane killed somewhere around 17 million people
The Crusades
people view those as a bad thing because they don’t know nothing
hundreds of years before they happened
Muslim Conquest was taking place
it’s best to view the Crusades as a LATE DEFENSIVE reaction to Muslim invasion
Joe Biden, what have you unleashed upon the world for years to come…
