I can't answer your questions, but it's Ataturk and Ottomans in English

I think he realised it was time for a new area in Turkish history?

Yusuf, the good answer for you is long, but the history is always there and you can find all the details you want to know, the situation of the Ottoman Empire in its last years, see if the Turks could still live independently under the Ottoman Empire control or whatever its name would be (probably it would be a small piece of land for the Turks, and the rest would be shared between English, French, Greeks, Italians, Kurds, Armenians etc.)
It's really a very ridiculous question (I don't blame you for you just don't know the history) to ask "who was right the ottomans or Atatürk" to Turkish people since Atatürk was named the Father of the Turks. Why? He was the leader of the Turks who didn't bow to the enemies (at that time Ottoman government was also one of these enemies, they just thought themselves, independence, honour and nation were all meaningless things for them)
You can read the history in "wikipedia". It's my favourite internet encyclopedia.

Oh, no. You got me wrong. Ofcourse the Ottomans are the ancestors of the Turks, and all the turks consider themselves as the grandchildren of the Ottomans, but the point isn't this. The point is the Empire came to a failure point where she was called as the "Sick Man of Europe", so she was not powerful anymore and all the other countries' eyes were on her. In this bad time, the Ottoman government didn't choose to fight against these enemies for the independence and honor of the Turks, it chose to yield (they thought that the only escape was to be under the control of Germany or England). So, that was why Atatürk was against this government as well. He started the war of independence.

If you read the history on your own, you can see the facts much better.
