Did any leader/king/ruler make a complete 180 degree changes in his stance in the middle of his reign?

king of england let the jews own property and gave them rights

then they started to clip the coins which is why coins nowadays have those ridges on the edge, amongst other things then he got mad and kicked them out

>one of Mao's advisers says that China is stifling creative thought which is making it fall behind other nations and creating a new elite within the party
>Mao says ok I want all intellectuals and students to feel free to speak out about the problems facing the country
>students and intellectuals start speaking out against communist party leaders and openly criticizing Mao's policies

>a year later Mao declares anyone who actually did what he asked and openly criticized to be a rightist and counter-revolutionary
>all rightists are thrown in jail

what king of england, there was more than one

i think the one in this picture

Ashoka of the Mauryan Empire basically gave up on expansion of his empire, and devoted his reign to peace afterwards due to a really bloody war he fought. He could of united all the Indian subcontinent, but didn't.

Ashoka counts right?

what the hell?

its kind of hard to take seriously something this openly anti-semitic, also Edward I didn't invite jews to england, William the conqueror did.

>a list of expulsions that actually happened is anti semetic

honestly familia if you go everywhere and get kicked out maybe it really is their fault

The list seems to be accurate I googled a couple of the dates and the Hungary 1582 and Ukraine ones add up. You could go through them 1 by 1 if you wanted I guess

not what I was talking about familia

>the jews have been a plague to the nations that have hosted them
>jews wear out their welcome thorough rape murder and thievery
>obviously the time for present day expulsions is once again rapidly approaching

there were definitely a lot of expulsions of jews but it often had more to do with jews being bankers and if you expel them then they can't collect on your debts, plus you get to seize all their property. Even better you can justify it all by saying you're doing it because you're a good christian.

I wasn't talking about who invited them in I just was talking about who expelled them

also the coin clipping thing is probably true tbqh

Papa Doc did didn't he?

Get a load of this guy. Jews have been mistreated through history for a reason. They are scheming and conniving and prefer their in-group, and don't want to assimilate into the host culture, like a parasite in nature. No need to get up in arms over it.
>oh this one people have been universally mistrusted wherever they went for a thousand years?
>must be "anti-semitism".

you know what's funny?
this list doesn't even include how many times the muslims tried to co-exist with der jude and then they jewed them one way or another and had to be kicked, thus the eternal jew-muslim hatred.

jew muslim hatred didn't start until 1947

nah it started before that when they started moving into british balestine in the 20s

lol

>There were, for a long but uncertain period, a significant number of Jews in Arabia. Historians claim that very large numbers of Jews – as many as 80,000 – arrived after the destruction of the First Temple, to join others already long-established in places such as the oasis of Khaybar as well as the trading colonies in Medina and Mecca (where they had their own cemetery). Another theory posits that these Jews were refugees from Byzantine persecutions. Arab historians mention some 20 Jewish communities, including two of Kohanim.[3]

>The Constitution of Medina, written shortly after hijra, addressed some points regarding the civil and religious situation for the Jewish communities living within the city from an Islamic perspective. For example, the constitution stated that the Jews "will profess their religion, and the Muslims theirs", and they "shall be responsible for their expenditure, and the Muslims for theirs". After the Battle of Badr, the Jewish tribe of Banu Qaynuqa breached treaties and agreements with Muhammad. Muhammad regarded this as casus belli and besieged the Banu Qaynuqa. Upon surrender the tribe was expelled.[4] The following year saw the expulsion of the second tribe, the Banu Nadir, accused of planning to kill the prophet Muhammad. The third major Jewish tribe in Medina, Banu Qurayza was eliminated after allegedly betraying the Muslims during the Battle of the Trench. However, there were many Jewish communities in Medina who continued to live in Medina peacefully after these events such as Banu Awf, Banu Harith, Banu Jusham Banu Alfageer, Banu Najjar, Banu Sa'ida, and Banu Shutayba.[5][6]

they side with whoever is convenient at the time desu

IIRC, both Nur al-Din and Saladin spent the first half of their careers working on expanding their empires against their Islamic neighbors with at most token campaigns against Outremer, but then after near-death illnesses later in their lives they both shifted their focuses towards Outremer instead of their Muslim neighbors.

I don't think you understand economics in any way, i seriously doubt a king would give a fuck about the culture of the people he was ruling, as long as it didn't affect his ability to rule, off the top of my head i can't think of any time jewsish populations seriously would impede a monarch, the fact that jews had a lot of shit, weren't christians would be more than enough justification for a king to tell them to fuck off.

Augustus was virtually a warlord for a good portion of his life, and had tons of people unscrupulously killed in lists, often just for money. Then he became a pretty good guy and ruled highly effectively and fairly, as far as we can tell.

Diocletian went from most powerful man and crafty politician in the empire, then voluntarily retired to farm cabbages for several years

Hitler's relationship with the USSR desu.

Inb4 both /pol/ and /leftypol/ both gang up on me.

Caligula. Early Caligula tried to be a bro.

Not sure if this counts but Jan Sobieski spent his entire political career shilling for France and against the Habsburgs while opposing the populist movement to elect a Polish king instead of a French candidate.

Then due to unforeseen circumstances (huge humiliating defeat against Ottomans which got everyone furious, followed by a huge victory under his command a day after the previous king died) he ended up being elected as the Polish king by said populists.

At the same time France improved her relations with the Ottomans pushing Sobieski to sign a mutual protection pact with Austria which led to him having to fight a huge war against the Ottomans (who were indirectly aided by France) with saving Habsburgs ending up being the most famous act of his life.

>jews stealing gold
I find this hard to believe

Hitler killing Strasser and Rohm and basically dropping the Socialism aspect of everything.

But usury is immoral

What'd he change? He read up on marxism but never actually implimented it.
Wasn't it France (the politician) more responsible for that?

He told them to stop YEARS before that happened and they kind of did but also kind of didnt.

Hindenberg and the army had zero tolerance for revolutionary talk so Hitler put them down to stay in power.

It wasn't really a 180 on Hitler's part.

Henry VIII was entirely loyal to the Pope until he wasn't allowed to divorce Catherine of Aragon, then he started the English Reformation

it's true

NERO

Henry VIII is one of the greatest shitters in history, if I were Anglican I'd be ashamed to have him as the founder of my Church.
