Yes, we call him by his unofficial honorific title of "Bashbugh", he is the founder of the country. He said the final word on who these lands belong, ousted the foreign powers, and established our presence in these lands for good, with a good government that was sadly not upheld by his successors.
Agree with that. He completely modernised Turkey, brought in the Roman Alphabet, kicked the mullahs back into their caves and brought a new Era of education.
Yes and he got the allies out of Turkeyh but he was a most honourable warrior.
This is what he wrote on the memorial to the Allied war dead at Gallipoli.
"Those heroes that shed their blood and lost their lives…
You are now lying in the soil of a friendly country. Therefore rest in peace. There is no difference between the Johnnies and the Mehmets to us where they lie side by side here in this country of ours…
You, the mothers, who sent their sons from faraway countries wipe away your tears; your sons are now lying in our bosom and are in peace, after having lost their lives on this land they have become our sons as well."
Ataturk, 1934
