You seem to be doing very well under the current conditions (all treaties and alliances considered). Again, you're just not happy with it personally, wrong shade of lipstick. Get your asses to the polls or stfu.
You became "Turks" by assembly. Once upon a time you were not. The same is true of Americans. Or maybe you just won't recognize us as an "ethnicity" for a few hundred years or so? This, case in point, is how all "ethnicities" were born, and is precisely why the term is absolutely meaningless and why it does not confer superiority in any case, ever. This is the position of genetics, archaeology, and linguistics. Yours is the position of racism, bigotry, and ignorance.
Was there anything I didn't address with these two short replies? I don't think so.
