Ataturk - Republic of Turkiye (Part 9)

A documentary of the greatest leader in 20th century(Part 9)

"It is claimed that religious unity is also a factor in the formation of nations. Whereas, we see the contrary in the Turkish nation. Turks were a great nation even before they adopted Islam. This religion did not help the Arabs, Iranians, Egyptians and others to unite with Turks to form a nation. Conversely, it weakened the Turks' national relations; it numbed Turkish national feelings and enthusiasm. This was natural, because Mohammedanism was based on Arab nationalism above all nationalities. Mustafa Kemal Ataturk"

From his book on Citizenship.

(Ataturk, Yurttaslik Bilgileri, Yenigun Haber Ajansi, June 1997, pp. 18.)

Haters gonna hate. Greatest leader of 20th century.

Respect.

[demirthemetalkhan]

What makes me most proud is not just hearing about the accomplishments of our national hero but to hear the praise of foreign scholars. We praise Ataturk because we have an obvious reason to. Foreigners have no reason to praise Ataturk, yet they do so with the same passion and respect that we feel towards him and it is due to his awe inspiring accomplishments. What a man! Us Turks should always be proud to know we are his children!

We Turks will shit on the mohammedy shit religion. It slowed us mighty turks for centuries. Arabs and their religion belongs in the desert. When their oil is out they will return there any way.

What an achiever .The hardcore supporters of the ottoman empire which was also an amazing era, hate Ataturk. However before the ottomans, and before the Selcuks we were still Turks. Some people can't understand this. We are now the most modern Muslim country in the world, who do we have to thank for this? Think next time you make accusations about Ataturk, 1000's of people were in the street crying, and here you are 70yrs later bitching about him. Religion is personal. Politics is national.

[ilafeiz]

mustafars was a snake and a wolf, he didnt have to kill civilians to win the war. He did that because he was a sick satanic evil bastardars. And for that he has to rotten in hell for eternity. If you want to warship that pig then go ahead, me I know better. Alexander the Great was a leader that didnt kill any civilians in order to win, and for that he is now in a better place than mustafars.
