Or maybe I am just tired of correcting you on the history of Turkey, Ottoman Empire, etc.

Your "ideas" have no "convenience" value for me. A lot of what you said in the course of this little exchange was wrong. I am tired of correcting them. Go back and read past posts to see what I am talking about in case you forgot.

This exchange is giving me nothing. I would be happy to tell you all I know on the subject if your intention were to learn. It is, obviously, to bait, try to find mistakes, etc. We had this conversation before. I am not interested.

without backing it up with logic and fact.

If you read the last few posts we exchanged on this subject and you cannot see how I "back it up with logic and fact" I cannot help you. Just go on thinking the Ottoman Empire declared war on Germany in 1943, that Ataturk was not the real name of the guy, that Ataturk sided with Germany during WWI as if he was the Padishah of the Empire, etc.

In short, I am tired of all this bickering. Just because I do not agree with you on the current US foreign policy, you are Googling details, trying to find mistakes in what I post, on a completely different subject, on which you probably see by now that my knowledge surpasses yours by a hundredfold. Which is not surprising, since I did take a shining to the Ottoman Empire at one point & and researched it quite a bit, I lived in Turkey for a while, in which time I learned quite a bit about the culture and history.

So what are you trying to do, pestering me for days on a subject you KNOW your knowledge from Googling websites can never reach mine?

What if you find a little mistake? Will you be a happier person?

So excuse me if I am no longer interested in correcting your hostile posts.
