Here you are talking about the most powerful and mighty empire of all times of the world history which has kept the civilizations, religions and the people together 500 years long in peace. If the Jewish people still survive they gotta be thankful to Turks because the Ottomans were the only nation which has accepted Jewish people who deported or killed from all regimes ( Franco, Hitler, Stalin, Mussolini, de Gaulle and the inquisitions, etc..) of the countries..You are talking about a 10.000 years old civilization which has grown on these soils and defined the cultures of the world for today.

Thank you Turks, because of you the europeans can eat their meals with fork at least... Thank you Turks because of you, the europeans have tasted croissant...Thank you Turks, because of your Religion, now the europeans are washing their hair daily instead of once in 5-6 weeks and they do not use flea traps under their wigs anymore...

The words are hard and contemptuous but derogatory to those people who grown up in the cradle of cultures
is making them sad and the europeans must learn the truth in their history which is hidden by their governments until now.

THE FIRST ORDER OF ISLAM IS "READ"... READ AND LEARN TO WHAT YOU BELIEVE...
