I refused to listen to ever listen to Andy Rooney (of "60 Minutes" and newspaper columns) about 10-15 years ago when he got publicly angry at the Greeks for criticizing him for precisely this same stupid error on his part. (He reported that St. Nicholas was Turkish ancestry.) Most normal people think accuracy in what is reported in the mass media is important, but not Andy Rooney and the rest of the TV "jornalists" for that matter.

Another important point they are incapable of understanding is that the Muslims never, never "conquered Turkey". What happened is the the Muslim Turks conquered Asia Minor.

Also, if not for the stupid British Empire helping the Muslims every chance they could get for centuries, the Christians would have been free of Islamic tyranny many years earlier, with an immense savings of millions of lives. The way things are looking,m England is being Islamicized by their immigrants, and sad to say they brought it on themselves.

I remember that Rooney stupid remark.

The West is doomed not for electing scum like Obama but for not recognizing or even better having any understanding of the unimaginably heroic efforts into defeating hordes of Muslims by Orthodox civilizations...Russia at the top of the list after the Fall of Byzantium.

Don't talk to me about the Brits-— commonly called the “Old Whore” among my friends from the Balkans and me too. Brits have repeatedly back stabbed Christian slaves barely surviving under the moham’dan yoke for centuries.

What really galls me is the CNS — and their sheer ignorance and gall in calling Saint Nicholas a Turkish saint. And then having our own Rooney here on this thread come up with lame arguments for pillaging his relics by robbers and thieves.
