GOT $ FOR WARS, CAN'T FEED THE POOR
Paused to take a picture of a bakery opening to sell special loaves for Ramazan, when I saw this 60s-looking street art.
Wish I could share the back story, but I don't know it.
Certainly, in times of Trump and other leaders who corrupted elections to deny democracy while edging toward dictatorship, a poignant piece of art.
Ironic that it's on a street, named for a general who fought both for the Ottoman Empire and in the war of Turkish Independence.
Wonder if the artist did that on purpose, or if was just a blank wall big enough to host his political message in the form of eye-catching street art.
