Turk

Turk is an ethnicity that was propagated during the WWI period by the right-wing conservative Christian media to have massacred millions upon millions, heck, zillions of Christians in order to justify the colonization attempts of the European Allied forces... After WWI, Turks were found innocent of crimes against humanity in the courts of those very same Allied forces because the “obvious evidences” were proven to be nothing but forgeries and racist war time propaganda. According to the court’s findings (and this is just a mere scratch of the surface), the masterminds who forged those documents (ahem, the evidence!) did not understand how the Islamic calendar worked! They also obviously did not know how to speak Turkish very well, and they most obviously misspelled every Pasha’s name who supposedly issued or received those orders... Well, anyway volumes can be written about the “obvious evidence,” and about the creative geniuses who have successfully managed to stir-up hatred of Turks to further the European colonialist agenda. Then again, volumes can be said about today’s European politicians who sit on their cushy seats in the parliament, clueless of history, and vote “aye” on a version of history that they feel is appropriate and in cooperation with the racist construction of the Turks’ terrible “essence.” Those of you who think I’m bullshitting, try this little mental exercise: take away all the racist imagery and the chants, and ask yourselves honestly, “what do I NOW know about the Turks?”
