Turkey Runs, Turkey Hides, Turkey Is.........guilty Of Genocide

[Heresson]

They were exchanged for Greeks from Anatoly (3x more of them)

But two points for Paiktis;

1)Janissaries were recruited from Slavs, but not from Greeks... - perhaps at the start it was different
20You have a bit Turkish blood - there were Turkish settlements -Comans, Piechings, the Turks near Mazaca...
Not much, but still...

[chequita guevara]

Janissaries were recruited from everyone Christian.

[Heresson]

That's what I thought, but recently I read somewhere...
If I believe it or not I must check in which book.
But I think it may be true, Greeks had better situation and devsirime was introduced only during Balkan conquests

[Plan Austral]

Correct me if i am wrong,,
If the Turks were just a mongol horde who conquered Anatolia, then, I assume, their number was not very big in comparison to the locals greeks, farmers, peasants merchants etc.
So most of the modern turks descend from those greeks who changed their language religion after getting new turkish rulers..

Like in Egypt after the arab conquest, at least that is what I thought.

[Bereta_Eder]

no jenissares were recruited from greeks too and no there isnt a drop of turkish blood in greek people, too much despise.

and yeah there was ethnic cleansing who would want to live near them?

plus they were such backward bastards. when europe was entering the age of enlightnemnt they were stuck to the mogol hordes barbaric ways.

i mean look how far greece has prospered since it got out of their hands and how ****ed up turkey is now

genocides of armenians/greeks, massacres of kurds, tortures of prisoners, no real democracy to speak of, no infastructure and an economy which is in tatters, cyprus invasion and messing up with its neighboors.

jesus what barbarians were those! megali idea again, right this time

Paiktis, the Greek racist!

[Bereta_Eder]

i'm not racist, they are turks

[Bereta_Eder]

Kublai, i dont know. i met some turks from Pontos (a distinguished Greek colony of Byzantium where they also gonocided people, killed and/or expelled greeks, the bastards) and when they found out i was greek they started get all excited and happy and telling me that their ancestors were greeks too.

i thought, what the **** dirty turk? but i didnt say anything cause i wanted my kebap unspitted

[Imran Siddiqui]

RACIST!

[Bereta_Eder]

they are turks, i'm not a racist

[Shi Huangdi]

I love how I can get Paitkis to ruin his creibility on a thread just by my appearance.

[Bereta_Eder]

credibility on an OT forum

get a life little stalker

i love how you give credit to yourself

[Shi Huangdi]

I am not a stalker. I am merely doing my part to fight racism and the right-wing, both of which are embodied in you.

[VetLegion]

hey were exchanged for Greeks from Anatoly (3x more of them)

the turks that remain in greece are now called greek muslims
and greeks compain of turks calling kurds "mountain turks"

btw., I am not sure of this, but perhaps Macedonians are called "mountain greeks"?

[Bereta_Eder]

oh boy. seems our balkan brethern is indeed deveoping that jealousy strick 1/3 of our political analysts had predicted 10 years ago.

or you just troll.
