Poor misinformed and mistaken Hostage
Turkey (Murderous Ottoman Empire) is 98% muslim, and Muslims love murderous strongman daddies like Erdogan.
Turkey proudly MURDERED 1.5 MILLION defenseless Armenian Christians to satisfy their Islamic bloodlust during WWI.
Didn’t you know that Turkey’s population is 98.6 percent Muslim?

Turkey is a predominantly Islamic country, where up to 99% of Turks are Muslim.
And tagline Article V misbelief says it all...
Yes, they have a horrid history but that history is of an empire era. That era is long gone. That era of the Armenian genocide is also wrapped in the ideology of Nazi Germany. Again, it’s long gone and should stay that way. That part of Turkey’s history is in the past just as Germany’s history is left to the past.
The Turkey that has existed from the defeat of Nazi Germany to the appearance of Erdogan has been one of a peaceful people, most of the educated demographic have been more secular and the Muslims in large part have been more inward looking.
All this was brought about by the reforms under Mustafa Kemal Atatürk. Yes, he was brutal to Muslims, but he wanted them to conduct themselves in a secular manner because he realized their customs kept Turkey behind militarily and technologically. He effectively transformed Mohammadism into a form palatable to Europe.
There is a reason why Turkey was allowed to become a part of the NATO Alliance.
The Armenian Genocide is still in a process of justice resolution. Turkey may yet be required to pay in gold for the crimes of their historical forbearers.
In the meantime, the average Turk is pleasant and polite. They are far removed from the people that committed heinous crimes against others. Their friendliness is welcome. It needs to stay that way and Erdogan is not helping.
