You may have a degree from UK - but that does not automatically prove you are a good or correct thinker.

Your thoughts are that of a person indoctrinated by an ethno-fascist ideology - "my people, right or wrong" type of thinking. To say turks lived in Anatolia before armenians or greeks or assyrians, to say armenians were traitors, to say Kemal Pasha was the greatest leader of all times - if that is what they taught you and you took over these teachings without critical questioning and honest research of your own - then I have to conclude that you are under a turkish ethno-fascist spell. No one can free you from this bewitching magic and self-glorification except yourself.

Neither the islamists nor the kemalists are honest in Anatolia. You will have to do a lot of independent, reading, research and thinking in this field. I hope you make it.
