Turkey's role in middle eastern politics
#51
RE: Turkey's role in middle eastern politics
Quote:It was not irrelevant. You made a false claim that the first post after yours instigated your extreme reactions here. I pointed out that it was untrue. My post was benign.
Very much so. Especially for someone who knows very, very little.

Quote:You forgot about the horrors committed by the Ottomans.
I don't really know how it was relevant to the arab revolt or anything.
And then, 5th horsemen responded with a wikipedia link about the so-called armenian genocide. It was a blatant attempt.
And the first page was without no virtual debate on the genocide subject, when you posted the second wikipedia link about the so-called genocide in the third page. How benign are you? However, I don't really blame you.
It's now almost a knee jerk reaction, thanks to armenian propaganda.
Quote:Wow, those little guys must have been too rebellious. Fucking load of shit. I am appalled by my country's use of internment camps for the Japanese during WWII. That is the difference between you and I. I am not willing to compromise my morality to defend a nation.
I don't see any bullet wounds. Even Turkish historians accept the fact that an unknown number of armenians have died during the deporations through various hardships. But indeed, none of you actually know how bureaucratic the Ottomans actually were. They kept record of everything, and they also described very clearly in orders that the goal here was to deport them to somewhere where they could not hinder the Ottoman war effort. It's all there in the Ottoman archives. They're open for inspection.
Since we're on the debate, let me point out that Ottoman census gives clear numbers on the Armenian populace in Turkey.
It was about 1.5 million. The armenians claim that 1.5 million have died.
So how does it come that the armenians living in the western provinces were not deported at all?
Quote:Kilic, they have every right to want revenge. It is a natural feeling. It wasn't even 100 years ago. Your people slaughtered their people and "exiled" them to death camps. You find it laughable? How sick are you?
Camps? Where were those camps? All we have here is a "blue book" who was written by the british as a propaganda tool. The same british who have lured mussulman soldiers to gallipoli by telling them that the Turks have converted to christianity, and are tearing down the mosques all around the country. Similar accusations have been made against the Germans in WWI by the british, and the Germans asked that their name be cleared after their surrender, and the brits agreed.
Speaking of slaughter, you probably don't know Kazım Karabekir, so let me put it down for ye.
Her daughter quotes from his memoirs: He arrived at Erzurum, and he was so close that he could see the teeth of the people who were on the walls. He saw them smiling, however once he got closer and closer, he saw that there was something odd with these people. They did not move, and as he got a little bit more closer, he saw that the armenians had impaled the Turks on the walls, as a last act of saying "fuck you", and their faces were distorted from the pain of the process.
This is the people whom we had "slaughtered" for no good reason, no reason at all.
Many Turks from villages who were raided by Armenian Hajduks report similar events.

You really speak based on what you hear from "wikipedia" other sources who do not take the Turkish side into consideration, or simply diss them as being wrong. This is us who have gone through the whole thing, not you.
Quote:Yes, but you brought up how your country only hurts itself which is a gigantic load of fucking bullshit. It is okay to be proud of your country's triumphs, but crimes against humanity are nothing to be proud of. There is good and bad in everything. If the Greeks and Armenians declared war with Turkey after WWII, I would not have thought them out of line. Your country overstepped, big time. You were no worse than the Nazis. Your people not only slaughtered people of other ethnicities, but they destroyed countless artifacts, just like Hitler.

Was I the first person to Godwin this shit?
And I'm not proud of "crimes against humanity", since there are none to speak of in the first place. There were acts of self-defense, acts of vengeance, acts of desperation.
Greeks have already gotten over the fact that Istanbul is in our hands like for over 600 years, and our founded Atatürk has reinstated friendly relations with the Venizelos administration of Greece(Venizelos was a fervent supporter of the megali idea, the idea of "unified Greece") and we have received similar feedbacks from Greece even though the war was just over. However, armenians...Well, there comes a time when someone has to let go. Their fate was sealed the time when Turks entered anatolia. They haven't been a sovereign state in the region for years and years and still think that they have any kind of rights to own that place? Unfortunately, they do. And they spread their lies in desperation in order to desperately gain international support to have an invalid treaty(the treaty of Sevres) recognized.
If Greeks(fresh out of Nazi occupation) and Armenians(who were under soviet occupation at that time) declared war upon Turkey after WWII, they would have probably made fools out of themselves. However that's not the reason why they haven't done it. Greece already got over things, is knee deep in debts, and Armenia is a tiny country with no sea ports, and virtually no real income besides diaspora money(and is under Turkish&Azerbaijani blockade).
Yeah, good luck with that.
