Reader comment on item: Turkey: An Ally No More
in response to reader comment: Turkish "love" - one honour killing a day and 19 mln Turks in favor of it

Submitted by havas (Turkey), Nov 13, 2009 at 12:50

When a person expresses condolences to the dead girl's family, the family acts in a rude way and says this is something to celebrate and not mourn. "

As the conclusion of the above I can't but quote the old saying for you, Havas, "You can't whitewash a black dog." Or to be less metaphorical "You can't civilize the Turk."

what you do is really racizm. millions of tourists visit turkey. and some of them travel deep rural parts of anatolia. great majority find turks as friendly people,likes our culture. this is a fact. on the other hand ı agree that some Turks are not civilised enough and women and child abuse is very common here.But again ı cant relate this to islam. ı also strongly reject that all muslims have in mind to conquer the world and that a muslim is a potential terrorist.

Terrorizm,9.11,taliban, al qaida ,opium,things like that have no relation with islam. these are all related to politics, palestein,israel,oil,gas,arab dictators,imperializm,etc.

we turks will always be proud of islam and our culture, no matter how hard you insult us. in all our history we lived with christians side by side. we know you very well.so please dont tell me tales.
