Elinil, you need to pull your pompous head out of your nether regions.

The Ottoman empire had just begun at the LAST crusade, the Ottomans are the ones that STOPPED that barbaric Christian practice. The Christians tried hard to beat the Ottomans back in the last crusade, but gave it up. The last crusade had already begun when the Ottomans showed up and pushed them back to thier proper borders.

Have you ever heard the phrase "kill them all, let God sort them out." This was uttered by a pope, when he was asked if the women and children of the villages they were razing should be spared. The Crusaders murdered in cold blood well over 5 million people in a spread of about 200 years. The Crusaders were forgiven of all sins, were guaranteed a place in heaven, and would get all but 10% of the bounty from conquering heresy and pagans. This sound civilized to you?

What about the US, we wiped out well over 2 million Indians in the stretch of about 200 years, through introducing Small pox, ON PURPOSE, with bedding and blankets that were infected. As well as just PLAIN old murder and death marches.

Oh yeah, the Ottomans were the WORST!! UH, HUH, sure you betcha!! How about the 518,000 Turks that were killed by Armenians? over a million Armenians, but they got about half that number in Turks. Sounds like it was intense fighting and destruction by both sides, the Ottoman Turks were just better fighters then the Armenians and so didn't lose as many people.

The Ottoman got NOTHING on the Christians, the Christians slaughtered to the last man, woman and child, maybe you NEED to apologize!! Oh, Arrogant, twisted, and bitter one.

Read your history Elinil, and don't throw rocks when you live in a glass house. If you are going to blame Turkey for something that was done by the Ottoman Empire, then you should be held accountable for the actions of your ancestors as well. The Christians, the US, oh it just goes ON AND ON AND ON!!

So now the truth about you is revealed. You are nothing but an anti Christian bigot, baklava! I have a suggestion: There is an organization that may suit you perfectly called Al Quaeda. Or if you prefer state sponsored butchery try the Turkish state.

Whoa!!!Not even Farakkhan would be so delusional. Your reaction reveals that you are the one who is bitter not to mention perverted as in a basic lack of understading of history?
