You are not forced to. Those who are interested in are invited to read on my threads.
I represent here my country and help to abolish prejudice and nescience from the American audience about my country. As long as i write nothing beyond acceptability and get banned I will still make such threads and get reading comments from those who care and those who do not.
Even if one person reads it with interest I am happy, the rest is additional luxury.
While writing about my country, those who are not interested in are budget before in my brain.
I can not expect anything other.

So is your decision to make and i accept.

Let me give you a little clue ..... you have done more to create prejudice towards your arrogant little country on this board than you have to abolish it. Your personal arrogance is as much to blame as anything.

That is no problem GunnyL. I do not expect a province American to know about Turkey. I am here to change it.
Do you think i do not know what most of here thinks of me? I know it very well.
And here is only 1 person i know of who is looking positive at me.
The persons i think they look positive of me, my 5 fingers on one hand is even to much to count them.
So i have no illusions, and i know too what you think about me, but it is OK as long as you do not pursuit me on this board and involve me everywhere in a personal discussion or satisfy your hankering of telling me what you think about Turkey.

Your memory must be off a bit. I lived in Turkey for two years. It's just another Middle Eastern shithole to me.

So, it's okay for you to spread your one-sided version of events where Turkey is concerned; yet, opinions to the contrary are not welcome? Speaks volumes about you, hypocrite.

Your memory must not be all that hot either. I lived in Turkey for 2 years. It's indistinguishable from any other Middle Eastern shithole. If you're going to come on here and try selling it as something other than what it is, I AM going to respond each and every time.

Clearly there is more than one hand of people who gave you that rep...

Expert says that the 100 tousand bullas found in Zeugma is a world record.

Researches by experts have proved that once the excavations are completed Gaziantep Museum will be the leading mosaic Museum in the world.

The second largest Mosaic in the world, called the "Gypsy Girl" is in Gaziantep. Excavation from Roman Era.

Surely no Berlin, Paris, London, Rome or Istanbul but everything different then a shithole.

You think spewing propaganda on in "internet world" makes you right?

Let's see .... on one hand we have Mr ultra-nationalistic Turk whose very word is selling Turkey as some world superpower/force to be reckoned with, and some great society ......

Now, shall I dig up the members here who have been to the Middle East and get THEIR opinons? I think you'd find yourself on the short end of the stick.

My father was stationed in Karamursel, Turkey for 2 years, and he dragged the family along. That would include me. A provable FACT.

You can prove you lived on Mars?

BTW .... Newsweek has lost a lot of credibility the past couple of years for presenting non-facts as facts. I'd try for some better backup if I was you.

You are very ignorant, GunnyL that i even must explain you Istanbul.
That you want to generalize from one city "Karamürsel", which from your personal view was a shithole, to whole Turkey shows exactly what you want to achieve. Simply put: shit here around.
You know nothing about Turkey.

And i assume as you mention your father, who moved his family there, that you must be a little child in these days.
You know nothing about Turkey.

Each year about 20 Million people come as tourists to Turkey, makeing Turkey a Top-10 Tourist location in this world, still not reached its potential.
Facts prove more then your personal view of Turkey being a shithole country.
Even discussing on this level to unprove you Turkey isn't a shithole country is to childish for me.
Go and play with someone else.

Been there. Jackson, Mississippi is a modern marvel in comparison.

Sure I do. I just don't see it through your rose-colored, ultra-nationalistic glasses. To say I lived there for 2 years; yet, know nothing about it is what's ignorant.

I was old enough to recognize camel shit in the middle of the "modern," cobblestone road when I saw it.

Camel's have no value in Turkish culture.
From ancient times Turks are known to be Horse-Riders from the steppes in Central-Asia.

If Camel's exist in Turkey, then they are imported and only punctualy present on Touristic areas. But not in a city like Karamürsel.
You use cliche which actually are wrong, too. Keep your fairy-tales for you.

Obvioulsy, you assume much about your own country but KNOW little. There were camels in the street in Karamursel REGULARLY; which, makes you either stupid or a liar. Choose your preference, Turk.

Guess you're more like a liberal than I thought. Get called out on something and you just run away.
