Mr. Erdogan suddenly remembered one of the ten commandments after the operation in Gaza where nine Turks

were killed in questionable conditions. He called this a massacre and for which he continously demands an apology

In a fanatical speech before the Turkish Parliament, Turkish PM. Erdogan referred to the Israeli operation against Gaza rally and called for an international intervention. Israel cannot clean the blood on it’s hands by using excuses

Page 3: Chapter Τurkey

April 24, 1915 - Turkish soldiers were given orders to carry out the "Ten Commandments". Armenian leaders were arrested, thousands were murdered and

many were deported without food or water. The Armenians were forced to walk through mountains and over barren regions to Syria a.k.a Iraq. Less than 100 000

of the 2 000 000 of the Armenians survived this slaughter.

Passover Eve, 1917The commander of the Turkish front ordered deportation of all residents of Jaffa and Tel - Aviv

Deportees had difficulty dealing with the harsh conditions. Many did not last and died from exhaustion, disease and dysentery, typhoid cholera. Over 1500 men, women and children perished during the deportation lasting 18 months

The Hellenic Genocide was the systematic torture, massacre and ethnic cleansing of several millions Hellenes (Greeks) perpetrated by the Turks in Asia Minor, Constantinople (called Istanbul by the Turks), Eastern Thrace, Imvros, Tenedos, Macedonia, Cappadocia and Pontos between the beginning of the 1890's and the end of the 1950's.

Millions of children, men and women were tortured and massacred or expelled from their homes only for being Hellenes. In the same places and often at the same time, were also massacred millions of Armenians and Assyrians.

The only "sin" of those millions of persons was to live where their ancestors had lived for thousands of years before the Turkish invasions. The Turkish rulers carried out with unimaginable cruelty their plan to create a "Turkey for the Turks

1984-1995: The extermination of the Kurds in Turkey where according to Ankara - "the Kurds do not exist in Turkey; there aren't any". A genocide of people of 18 million on the threshold of the 21st century

Page 44: Chapter Τurkey

Kurds are a minority, which constitutes about 20% of Turkey's population, who aspire to self-determination and independence. They rebelled at 1925. Turkish

government brutally suppressed the rebellion

The next revolt, which broke in 1938/9, was also brutally suppressed, using the deadly gas, which killed thousands of Kurds

Midst World War Two, 770 Jews immigrants were on the rickety ship "Struma", fleeing from fascist Romania, hoping to get passports in Istanbul, through which they could enter Palestine

The passengers were left at Istanbul quarantined and forbidden to get off the ship with the exception of eight of them. The immigrants were left on board with only the supplies received from the Jewish community in Istanbul, until supplies ran out. Inside the ship, under terrible conditions, dysentery and disease broke out and the passengers suffered from the cold, crowding, filth and starvation

Finally, the Turks decided to get rid of the "problem." On the night of February 23, 1942 “Struma” was dragged with a broken engine and broken anchor by a Turkish ship to sea, out of Turkish territorial waters, where passengers were abandoned without food and water, and hundreds of people crowded on board

Later, the ship was sunk, apparently by a Russian submarine and all illegal immigrants (except for one survivor) plunged to their death

Time: 04:35, Saturday 20 July 1974. The graphic and most beautiful ancient Greek town of Kyrenia as it was seen by the Turkish pilots the morning of 20 July 1974 when the air-raids of the Turkish air-force against Cyprus began. Bombings were more intense on the northern shores of Cyprus and around the "Pente Mili" (five miles west of the town of Kyrenia) area where all the landings took place

Page 47: Chapter Τurkey

The Turkish invasion of Cyprus caused the death of 6,000 people

In the photo above you can see the horrifying results from the burns caused by NAPALM bombs of the Turkish air-force. The use of these bombs is a normal phenomenon by the Turks. The use of these bombs has been prohibited due to the cruel death inflicted upon its victim. Nevertheless, the Turks still use these even today

Page 48: Chapter Τurkey

The Turkish air force merciless napalm bombings included numerous non-military targets inter alia hospitals, schools, hotels, elderly-houses, psychiatric clinics, Greek Orthodox monasteries, etc. On the top left photo you can see the results of one of these air-raids at the hospital of the town of Famagusta. The unfortunate patient lost his life under several tons of concrete, that crashed him after one of these cruel, barbaric, and unlawful Turkish air-raidsThe Turkish invasion of Cyprus caused the death of 6,000 people which, in USA proportions, is the equivalent of 3,600,000 (three million six hundred thousand). These people were killed in a period of 25 days! You can now better appreciate the devastating consequences the Turkish invasion had and still has on Cyprus

The Turks showed no respect and no appreciation for anybody. Not even sacred men of the cloth, i.e. Greek Orthodox priests and monks

Page 49: Chapter Τurkey

The Turkish barbarism was once more revealed after the very first Turkish air raids. NAPALM arson bombs were the standard-issue weapon-of-choice of the Turkish air force that used them widely to cause havoc and panic inside the population of Cyprus. The usage of these bombs had devastating results. The cost was great in both human lives as well as in the infrastructure and the forests of Cyprus. In this photo, you can see some Greek-Cypriots, victims of NAPALM bombs

Page 50: Chapter Τurkey

The Turkish air force continued its systematic bombardment of non-military targets. These were civilian targets, such as villages, towns, hospitals, elderly houses, clinics, water tanks, power stations. This was done in order to spread terror amongst the public, force them to flee their homes and run for their lives, and consequently better facilitate the ethnic cleansing committed against the Greeks in 1974. This Ethnic cleansing is continuing even today by not allowing the return of ALL 200,000 GREEK-CYPRIOT REFUGEES back to their homes. This photo was taken at Yerolakkos village. You can see a huge crater caused by a 2000 pound bomb

Recently, the leader of the Turkish terrorist organisation TMT, Rauf Denktash, admitted publicly that many Greek Cypriots POWs (Prisoners of War) were executed by Turkish militants in cold blood. In the photo you can see Greek Cypriots being rounded up by the Turkish army in 1974

A total of 1619 persons were reported as missing as a result of the 1974 Turkish invasion against Cyprus. They transported many of them to Adana in Turkey, or they detained them in Cyprus, in either case in the most horrible conditions. Many of them were seen in captivity alive and well, by others who were released later. Turkey, still refuses to disclose any information of their fate, thus violating not only basic Human Rights, but also International Law

Yes, Tayyip Erdogan, Prime Minister of a nation that is guilty of

multitude of atrocities and yet aspires to become an EU

member. Membership in the EU is not only about money and commerce. It is also about humanitarian values and

civilization... and in this Turkey is sadly lacking.

APOLOGIZE NOW AND REPENT for Turkey's sinful history before

you can even be allowed to knock on Europe's door.
