I don’t want to live with them either. In my mind the answer is very easy.
In my opinion, that sounds rather friendly. If a poll were taken here, I’m confident 40% of Americans would say the same thing about Muslims.
Do they like Christian tourists ?
And of these 40%, how many think Turkey should be in the European Union?
For Turks, “Christian” means Armenian. And we can guess how the supposedly “sophisticated” Turks of Istanbul and Ankara feel about the Eastern Armenians (google Armenian genocide....)
Sura 4:89 “seize them and slay them wherever you find them: and in any case take no friends or helpers from their ranks.”
Sura 9:29-33 “ upon such of those to whom the Scriptures have been given as believe not in God,
I’ve said this before - Ataturk is spinning in his grave. This is not the way he envisioned bringing the Turkish people into the 20th century and on.
It is sad. The Turks so revered Ataturk when I lived in Turkey in the 60s, that we Americans were told never to say his name in public because a paranoid Turk (and there were many of them!) would assume we were speaking ill of their dead leader.
There is no way they can continue to revere his memory while falling back into the dark age mentality that is the moslem religion.
Soon burkas, veils and the fez will be mandatory after being banned by Ataturk. That was one of the best things he did and I am sure the hardliner religious leaders will be reversing all the changing that Ataturk brought about. Sad.
I wonder how long it take the hardliners to destroy the historic statues and buildings that have stood for centuries. One thing I have noticed about those mullah types, they hate anything that is beautiful or colorful or pleasant to see or hear -
Ethnic cleansing will soon follow.
I love these 2 gems:
1 - And 58 % of them does not want to live with Jew neighbor”, Simavoryan noted.
2 - “Every action by the Christian Church is presented as negative action. Even the churches are presented as terrorist organizations”. ~~Talk about projection!~~
>> According to A. Simavoryan now 120.000 Christians live in Turkey now and 59.000 of them are Armenians.
And that’s a number infinitely larger than the number of muslims and Turks living in Armenia, which ought to tell you something.

No muslim can live in Armenia, they’d be dead.
The article is in an Armenian propaganda medium, anyway. I wouldn’t believe it on matters regarding Turkey.

A documentary by Marty Callaghan - can get all his other works on Amazon but not this one..
Spreading these lies about the Turks, a deep rooted people both loved, respected, and even feared in the region, will only weaken you. But we Turks are not interested in a weak America. We will counter any and all of these feeble attempts to poison our relationship with the American people.
