well, in this case your being a Dutch Turk doesn`t make any difference because I was talking about the westerners in general.

Quoting tamikidakika:

If you are talking about the westerners in general, then what is the difference between you and me:

Me, a Turk who lives in the Netherlands.
You, a Turk who lives in the States.


Aren't we both Turk and both Westerners then? And if there is no difference, what were you trying to say in your post?

Is there a connection between me and pathetic Wilders, just because we turn out to live on the same soil? To me it sounded like that's what you are saying. In that case, you and Bush must have a connection too?

I don`t consider myself a westerner, I`m not. I wouldn`t call you a westerner either if you`re a Turk no matter where you live. Again I didn`t imply anything targeting you.

I feel and think as a westerner I think. After all, İzmir is not really east anyway

Sorry, I must have misunderstood you then Thought you were targetting me sort of. Apologies! And welcome to our website by the way

Thanks for the welcome


I`m from Sivas with apparent redneck features, so that makes me an easterner definitely

Well, I'll be honest with you then Im not Turkish. I said so, just to show you how irrelevant it can be where you come from. For me, it means nothing that I am Dutch/English. It is not something that makes me happy. But I feel and think as a westerner. After having lived in İzmir, I love like a Turk and that is what makes me happy
