POLITICA, RHETORIC, ORATORY and SOPHISTRY
By
POLAT KAYA
Some words
represent the founding principles of the ancient European civilization and they
are still being used in ruling and administering peoples in modern times. Since
their usage in real-life affects all people, it would be useful to better
understand some of these terms. Some of the most prominent of these terms are POLITICA,
RHETORIC, ORATORY and SOPHISTRY which are all related to each other
conceptually. Most of us do not even know well the real meanings of these words
which have been laundered over and over again so that they are readily accepted
concepts. I would like to show in this essay the makeup of these words which
are said to be etymologically from ancient Greek and/or Latin.
The term POLITIC is
defined by The Random House Dictionary as [1]:
"POLITIC: adj. 1.
sagacious; prudent. 2. shrewd; artful. 3. expedient; judicious. 4. political.
[late ME politik < MF politique< Latin politicus < Greek politikos civic, equivalent to polites citizen (see POLITY) + -ikos
ic]. Syn. 1. discreet,
judicioous, astute, wary. See diplomatic. 2. sly, cunning, clever, subtle,
intriguing, crafty. Ant. 1.
tactless. 2. open."
It seems that the
term "POLITIC" has more to do with the second group of synonyms than
the first group in the above definition. This is what we see when we analyze
the source of the word. Let us start with the Latin form of the word.
For decipherment
purposes the Latin word POLITICUS can be rearranged as "POL-UTICIS" where the letter "C"
is normally a double-agent letter which sometimes is the letter "C"
or "S" and other times is pronounced mostly as "K". When
the restructured word is read phonetically as in Turkish, it is the
restructured and disguised form of the Turkish expression"BOL ATICIIS" (bol aticiyiz) meaning
"we lie plenty", "we deceive plenty", or in the form "POL-UTICI" it is the Turkish saying "BOL ATICI" meaning "he who lies a
lot".
The Italian form of
the word is POLITICA ( when rearranged as
"POL-ATICI") which is also from Turkish "POL ATICI"(BOL ATICI) meaning "he who lies
plenty". The Greek form of the word also means the same except that the
letter "C" has been replaced with letter "K" thus
camouflaging the word further.
It should be noted
that these meanings in Turkish are among the second group of synonyms of this
"Greek" or "Latin" word given in the definition above. It
describes well the profession of politics.
***
One of the things
that politicians do most of the time is to make public speeches, that is, they
use "ORATORY" or"RHETORIC". Oratory is defined as "art of speaking in public eloquently or effectively". [2]
When the term ORATORY is rearranged as "O-R-ATYOR", and read as in Turkish, we
find that it is the restructured and disguised form of the Turkish expression "O ER ATIYOR" meaning "that man is just
talking without meaning any of what he says", "he is just
yapping", "he is lying".
Additionally, when
the word ORATORY is rearranged as "RYATOR-O" and read phonetically as in Turkish, it
is the Turkish expression "RIYATOR
O" (RIYADUR O) meaning "it is
dishonesty", "it is lying", "it is all lies", "it
is hypocrisy" which again describes in Turkish those people who make a lot
of public speaking, particularly during political campaigns. The Turkish word "RIYA" means "dishonesty",
that is, "hypocrisy" meaning "extreme insincerity" and
"pretending".
One of the
synonymes of the word "ORATORY" is the word "ELOCUTION" in which the letter
"T" is voiced as "SH". When the word ELOCUTION is
rearranged letter-by-letter as "CONUSHELI-O", it is found to be the restructured and
disguised form of the Turkish expression "KONUShULU O" meaning "it is what is being
spoken", that is, "it is speech". Thus this is the
cleansed front presentation of the term "ORATORY" meaning
"speech".
The term HYPOCRISY is said to be from Greek "HYPOKRITES" (UPOKRITES)
meaning "stage actor", "player", "pretender". But
when the term HYPOKRITES is rearranged letter-by-letter as
"RIYOKEPSTH" where letter P=R and H=I, it readily shows its true
source as being made up from the Turkish expression "RIYAKARCITI" (ikiyüzlüdü) meaning "he
is hypocrite". This then makes the Greek word "HYPOKRITES"
a restructured and disguised form of the Turkish expression
"RIYAKARCITI" meaning "he is a double-faced person".
Even the word HYPOCRITE, when rearranged as "RIYOCEPTH" where P=R and H=I, is the Turkish word "RIYAKARDI"meaning "he is
a hypocrite", that is, "he/she/it is deceiver", "he/she/it
is pretender", "he/she/it is dishonest".
Similarly the word
HYPOCRISY, when rearranged as "RIYOCHPSI", is from Turkish word
"RIYAKARCI" meaning "he is a hypocrite".
In the ancient and
also in the present Greek alphabet, the Greek symbol P (Latin letter P) is also
a symbol for the capital form of the Greek letter R. [3] Hence the letters P and R are deceptively
interchangeable in camouflaging the altered words and expressions of Turkish.
Other Indo-European languages also use the same confusion tricks in coming up
with words from Turkish.
***
One of the synonyms
of the word "ORATORY" is the word "RHETORIC" which is
defined by the Random House Dictionary as follows [4]:
"Rhetoric: 1. The
study of the effective use of language. 2. The ability to use language
effectively. 3. The art or science of all speciaalized literary uses of
language in prose or verse, including the figures of speech. 4. the art of
prose in general as opposed to verse. 5. (in prose or verse) the undue use of
exaggretion or display; bombast. 6. (formerly) the study of the composition and
delivery of persuasive speeches; the art of oratory. 7. (in
classical oratory) the art of influencieng the thought and conduct of ones
hearers. 8. A work on rhetoric. [ > Latin rhetoric(a) < from Greek rhetorike (techne) rhetorical (art); ME.
rethorik < Latin rethorica].
When the Greek word RHETORIKE is rearranged as "RHEKERTI-O" where the bogus letter H=I,
and read phonetically as in Turkish, it is the restructured and disguised form
of the Turkish expression "RIAKARDI O" ("riyakardi o", "riyekerdi
o", "o sahtekardi", "o yalancidi, "güvenilmez birisidi
o") meaning "He is liar, he is a cheater, he is a
hypocrite". Thus again we have a complete correspondence in
meanings. Clearly it is seen that this Turkish expression has been plagiarized
and used as the source for construction of this so-called "Greek"
term RHETORIKE.
Similarly when the
Latin word "RHETORICA" is rearranged letter-by-letter
as "RHECARTI-O", where H=I, and C=K, we find
that it is also a restructured and disguised form of the Turkish expression "RIAKARDI O" (riyakardi o) meaning "he
is liar", "he is deceitful", "he is cheater", "he
is hypocrite".
Of course the
English term RHETORIC also has the same meaning since it is supposedly derived
from these Greek or Latin words without mentioning the real source. When
the term RHETORIC is rearranged as "RHECORTI", it is seen to be from
Turkish word "RIAKARTI" (RIYAKARDI) as explained above.
However if the rearrangemant was done in the form of "RHECITOR" where
bogus letter H=I and C is a C in this case rather than K, then it is the
Turkish expression "RIACIDUR" again meaning "he is liar",
"he is a cheater", "he is untrustable deceit", "he is
hypocrite".
Clearly, all of
these Greek, Latin and English words have their origin in the Turkish language
rather than their claimed Indo-European sources..
***
Along the line of
professional "hypocrisy", we have another ancient but interesting
school. It is said that one of the famed Roman rhetoricians was by the name Marcus Fabius Quintilianus, (c. AD 35-95), who seems to
have taken his "profession" as his last name. He became Romes first
professional salaried teacher of RHETORIC. [5]
When the name QUINTILIANUS is rearranged letter-by-letter
as "ILIN-UQUTANSI" and read phonetically as in
Turkish, we find that it is the restructured and disguised form of the Turkish
expression "YALAN OKUTANCI" meaning "he who teaches
liying", that is, "one who teaches the techniques of effective liying
and getting away with it" or alternatively, "one who teaches the
techniques of hypocrisy". Thus, it seems that teaching how to lie
effectively was very fashionable in the ancient Greek and Latin world. The
ancient Greek and Roman world had many such schools which taught effective ways
of conning people by ways of sophistry and rhetoric. Evidently those who got
their education in such expensive schools usually became lawyers who turned
into politicians, administrators and rulers. This ancient Greek and Roman
"oratory" traditions have come to present day civilization as the
"rhetoric" wielding law institutions. These ancient "effective
lie teaching" institutions must have been the proto-law schools of the
modern law and justice "giving-and-defending" institutions.
***
In the ancient
Greek and Latin world, one way of spreading the techniques of sophistication
was teaching "sophistry" in special schools by able teachers in the
subject. The Turkish words for sophistry are "safsata, yaniltmaca,
riyakarlik, kandirma".
A good definition
of the word "SOPHISTRY" is given at the URL:
http://encyclopedia.laborlawtalk.com/Sophistry
"1. sophistication -
uplifting enlightenment Synonyms: edification.
2. sophistication - a deliberately invalid argument displaying ingenuity in reasoning
in the hope of deceiving someone. Synonyms: sophism,
sophistry.
3. sophistication - being expert or having knowledge of some technical subject;
"understanding affine transformations requires considerable mathematical
sophistication".
4. sophistication - the quality or character of being intellectually
sophisticated through cultivation or experience or
disillusionment Antonyms: naivete, naivety, naiveness - lack
of sophistication or worldliness Synonyms: worldliness.
5. sophistication - falsification by the use of sophistry; misleading by
means of specious fallacies; "he practiced the art of sophistication upon
reason."
Sophism was originally a term for the techniques taught by a highly respected
group of philosophy and rhetoric teachers in ancient Greece. The common modern
usage is not necessarily representative of the beliefs of the original
Sophists, except that they generally taught Rhetoric. The Sophists are known
today only through the writings of their opponents (specifically Socrates,
Plato, and Aristotle), which makes it difficult to formulate a complete view of
the Sophists' beliefs.
The meaning of the word sophist (Gr. sophistès) has changed greatly over time.
Initially, a sophist was someone who gave sophia to his disciples, i.e. wisdom
made from knowledge. It was a highly complimentary term, applied to early
philosophers such as the Seven Wise Men of Greece.
In the second half of the 5th century B.C., and especially at Athens,
"sophist" came to be applied to a group of thinkers who employed
debate and rhetoric to teach and disseminate their ideas and offered to teach
these skills to others. Due to the importance of such skills in the litigious
social life of Athens, acclaimed teachers of such skills often commanded very
high fees. The practice of taking fees, coupled with the willingness of many
practitioners to use their rhetorical skills to pursue unjust lawsuits,
eventually led to a decline in respect for practitioners of this form of
teaching and the ideas and writings associated with it.
Protagoras is generally regarded as the first sophist. Other leading
5th-century sophists included Gorgias and Prodicus. Socrates was perhaps the
first philosopher to significantly challenge the Sophists."
This very enlightening
citing from the above given URL explains well the importance of SOPHISTRY not
only in ancient Greece but also in the modern world. It means that
whoever does the better "lying" wins. It is seen that SOPHISTRY is another name for HYPOCRISY.
The Greek word for
"sophistry" is given as "SOPHISTIKOS" [6].
The Greek term SOPHISTIKOS, when rearranged as "SOPIK-SOTISH", is the restructured and
disguised form of Turkish expression "SAPIK SATIS" (egri satis, sahte satis) meaning
"dishonest sale". We also find this meaning in the Latin wordSOPHISTICATUS meaning
"sophistication". SOPHISTICATUS, when rearranged letter-by-letter as "SOPIK-SATISHTU", is the restructured and
disguised form of the Turkish expression "SAPIK
SATISTI" (EGRI SATISTI, SAHTE SATISTI) meaning "it is dishonest sale".
These Greek and Latin words are different from each other only by the addition
of the Turkish suffix "-TI", a form of -TIR, -TUR suffix, meaning
"it is" to the so-called "Latin" word. This trick has
been used in all Indo-European and Semitic languages in coming up with
languages for themselves from the original language of Turkish.
The term "SOPHISTIC" has the synonyms of
"illogical, irrational, invalid, fallacious, unreasonable", yet the
term"SOPHISTICATION" has the synonyms of "lack of
simplicity, finesse, refinement, social grace, elegance" which makes a
contradiction with the meanings of "sophistic". A culture that
knows that something is wrong with a certain behavior, but at the same time,
accepts that "wrong" as "social grace" has a contradiction
with itself. With this mentality, it is no wonder that "lying, cheating,
dishonesty, hypocrisy, etc." are regarded acceptable. Thus it is
clear that western civilization has been based on sophistry and hypocrisy. Here
one remembers the ancient Spartan principle of behaviour: "do anything
that pleases you, but do not get caught" which itself justifies
"lying, stealing, dishonesty, sophistication and many evil acts as long as
one is not caught". It is no wonder that ancient Greeks saw nothing
wrong with stealing the Turkish language, religion, culture, and civilization,
thus making themselves a "nation" rather than staying as a
"wandering" group.
The same URL also
gives the following regarding "SOPHISTRY in ancient Greece:
"By the time of Plato and Aristotle,
"sophist" had taken on negative connotations, usually referring to
someone who used rhetorical sleight-of-hand and ambiguities of language in
order to deceive, or to support fallacious reasoning. Socrates, Plato, and
Aristotle all challenged the philosophical foundations of sophism. Eventually,
the school was accused of immorality by the state."
From all of these analyses the emerging
picture is that:
a)
Turkish was the universal world language, and that ancient Greek and
Latin linguists knew well and spoke well. In fact their linguists knew
all the intricacies of the Turkish language far better than most Turks do
presently as owners of the Turkish language.
b)
Because of that deep understanding and knowledge of Turkish by the
Greeks, Latins (Aryans/Arayans) and Semites, they were all able to create the
Indo-European and Semitic languages by using the Turkish language not only as
the foundation model language, so-called "proto" language which is from
Turkish word "birata" meaning "one father" language for
manufacturing new languages, but also as linguistic gold-mine providing new
words for these new languages.
c)
An act of "HYPOCRISY" has been played since ancient times up to
the present times by the Greek, Latin and all of the other European secret
language manufacturers in presenting a deceptive front to the world that their
languages are authentic and independently developed languages while they are
totally false and manufactured languages. By usurping the Turkish language they
also usurped instantly the ancient and present Turanian civilization.
d)
In the same way, by changing the names and language of some Turkish groups into
a format different than the original Turkic format, they deceptively claimed
these peoples as Indo-European origin. With such sophistry, they stole many
historical Turkic groups and presented them to the world as "Aryan"
(from Turkish "Arayan") or as "unknown". Such very sneaky
and "sophisticated" acts have been going on since ancient times and
still going on without the Tur/Turk peoples ever being aware of it. For
example, presently the desire of the Turkish Republic to join as a member of
the so-called "European Union" has met the brick wall of collective
hypocrisy of the European politicians. This is a living example of
the old games used against the Turks by way of effective speech making.
e)
Knowing language well and using it "sophisticatedly" is much
more effective in changing and obliterating nations than the most powerfull
military killing machines. Only most secretive cults and manipulators use this
invisible "weapon of language" very effectively in controlling
ordinary people who spent their daily efforts to earn only a simple living. The
result is that such groups end up ruling and hence sucking the blood of the
rest of the world public. Hypocrisy works and works well for the
hypocrite!
f)
The words and expressions of the ancient Turkish language, and with them
the ancient Turkish civilization, have all been completely stolen by way of
sophistry and hypocrisy wielded by the secretive religious and linguistic
groups of the so-called "civilized" Western and Semitic world for the
last 3-4 thousand years. The whole world has been conned by these cabalists who
have conditioned the people of the world by rhetoric and oratory to accept
"black" as "white".
