Ne var ki son g\u00fcnlerde Gaziantep\u2019te 23 Nisan Ulusal Egemenlik ve \u00c7ocuk Bayram\u0131 kutlamalar\u0131nda bu destans\u0131 mar\u015f, bir kez daha \u201cmodern\u201d bir utan\u00e7la kar\u015f\u0131la\u015ft\u0131.

Peki bu \u201csaray k\u00fclt\u00fcr\u00fc\u201d dedikleri nedir? T\u00fcrk\u2019\u00fcn 600 y\u0131l boyunca Avrupa\u2019dan Afrika\u2019ya, Asya\u2019dan Hindistan\u2019a uzanan bir imparatorlu\u011fun ad\u0131. Fatih\u2019in \u0130stanbul\u2019u fethi, Yavuz\u2019un Ridaniye\u2019si, Kanuni\u2019nin Moha\u00e7\u2019\u0131\u2026 Hepsi o \u201csaray\u201d\u0131n eseri. Mehter, i\u015fte bu zaferlerin ritmidir. \u00c7ocuklara Mehter\u2019i sevdirmek, onlar\u0131 \u201csaray k\u00fclt\u00fcr\u00fc\u201dne de\u011fil, kendi tarihlerine, ecdad\u0131na, k\u00f6klerine ba\u011flamakt\u0131r. S\u0131rt \u00e7evirmek ise o k\u00f6kleri kesmek anlam\u0131na gelir.<\/p>\n
\u0130\u015fin daha vahim taraf\u0131, bu g\u00f6r\u00fcnt\u00fcye \u201cnormal\u201d diyenlerin \u00e7\u0131kmas\u0131yd\u0131.<\/p>\n
Gazeteci Can Atakl\u0131, olay\u0131 \u015f\u00f6yle yorumlad\u0131: \u201cGaziantep\u2019te mehter \u00e7al\u0131yorlar\u2026 Bir s\u00fcr\u00fc zekas\u0131z \u2018Mehter T\u00fcrk\u2019\u00fcnd\u00fcr\u2019 diyor.

Mehteri \u201csaray \u00f6zentisi\u201d diye a\u015fa\u011f\u0131lamak, 23 Nisan\u2019da \u00e7ocuklara \u201cBu sizin tarihiniz de\u011fil\u201d demekten farks\u0131zd\u0131r.

Tarih tekerr\u00fcrden ibarettir derler. Cumhuriyet\u2019in ilk y\u0131llar\u0131nda da Mehter bir s\u00fcre unutturulmak istendi. Ama milletin haf\u0131zas\u0131 g\u00fc\u00e7l\u00fcd\u00fcr. Mehter yine meydanlara d\u00f6nd\u00fc, yine g\u00f6\u011f\u00fcsleri kabartt\u0131, yine \u201cEy gaziler\u201d diye hayk\u0131rd\u0131. \u00c7\u00fcnk\u00fc Mehter sadece mar\u015f de\u011fil; T\u00fcrk\u2019\u00fcn kendine g\u00fcveninin, devlet kurma iradesinin, cihan h\u00e2kimiyeti iddias\u0131n\u0131n sembol\u00fcd\u00fcr.<\/p>\n
