Reader comment on item: Does Turkey Still Belong in NATO?
in response to reader comment: Turk

Submitted by Gonca (Turkey), Sep 8, 2009 at 10:05

Look at thousands of Armenian-Turkish friends living happily in Turkey who are by the way among the richest people in Turkey. Look at all the churches we have here, which are kept, protected and respected by every citizen. We are not discriminative. You can not pick where to be born, which religion you will belong to and what kind of a skin color you will have, therefore you need to respect everyone. We as Turks are a mix of many different nations and cultures. That's why it's so colorful and we love everybody. Tell me why we have so many tourists every year and they all talk about how friendly we are. At the time of a war where millions of Turkish kids, women and soldiers died, there were also a lot of other people who died. War times are hard on us, but you can not use it against a whole nation and accuse them for 100s of years and try to make money out of it. Who should we accuse for our own losses?!!!!!!!!
