Besides, I've already said that we do not measure our superiority by our military history alone.
Arabs...Well, I could say that they are superior to the French, but still not superior to us Turks. Their only claims of superiority rest on the moslem religion, due to the prophet being an Arab. They certainly have forgotten rather easily how the Turks they had bought as slaves to serve as their bodyguard have ruled over them for centuries, all the while being the protectors of the religion of Islam and the holy lands.
They are greedy and lazy, unlike their semitic brothers, the Jews, who are also greedy, but hardworking.
Yet again with the sweeping generalisations and baseless remarks. I'd love to see the proof of your claims.
Historic events do not mean your race is inherently superior. You ruled over the arabs, so what? The arabs, with the help of the British, threw off the Ottoman yoke. The British have ruled over many more peoples than the turkish, yet I do not claim to be superior to you. Past glories are just that, past. You can wax lyrical all you want about past turkish successes, no one will believe that you are better than them because you have a similar background.
