Quoting femmeous

it was mandated by brits, but then brits soon had to hold the immigration of jews and most ships had to harbour away from the palestine shores, were turned away and some got sank (one in the black sea near turkey). jews were placed into camps no better than those of german. that was all done to please arabs. arabs could freely get access to weapon because they were not closed in camps, and jews had no right to defend themselves. every jew caught up with weapon was executed, which didnt happend to an arab. therefore jews started rebelling against brits. they secretly started to build up their own little weapon factories.

the whole region belongs to jews. arabs are immigrants who loved to occupy everything that doesnt belong to them.

You sound like you lived there and was someone (Jew) who was treated badly, but I guess from the other comments you just like to make things up ${#lang_emotions_bigsmile}$

Quoting thehandsom

....

But "living at the edge of Europe" also means that there is a great temptation to imitate Europe, to the detriment of one’s own culture. "Turkey is not a part of the West. I always repeat this and I will repeat it again, Turkey is an imitation of the West. Turkey has never been colonized by Europe and because we have no wounds [from colonization], it is easier to have praise for Europe. Atatürk himself was a perfect occidentalist."

http://www.hurriyet.com.tr/english/domestic/10607679.asp?scr=1

This is an interesting view of Orhan Pamuk, based on Today now doubt. He says that Ataturk was an occidentalist: that was of course in 1922 ish, would he be that way today if he was alive? Would he be routing to belong to the EU? Would he see Turkey as an immitation of the west? I wonder.

I have travelled extensively in Turkey as I see it as two places. One of modernisation and western attitudes (not necessarily beliefs) and one of deep routed cultural values, beliefs and ways of life. From one end of Turkey to another, you go from internet access in every house (more or less) to no internet access or even reliable electricity.

Turkey only imitates the West where the West has an influence.

I am yet to understand this obsession with the West / East, where does it begin and where does it end?

Quoting bod

Today I am wearing usual work clothes........

Black jeans, black trainers, stripy socks (one purple/black and one grey/black with skulls on them), a black polo shirt and a multicolour stripy jumper........plus a few earrings, nose ring and a small selection of bracelets.

But recently for going out clubbing my girlie and I were dressed a little more interestingly - we nearly matched - nearly but not quite........

Hehe! Interesting outfits, even down to the matching hole above the knee ${#lang_emotions_bigsmile}$
