China really wants to befriend with Turkey, but those ultra-nationalists Turks are doing everything to prevent this to happening.

They are in the same category as some Chinese members here,dont you think?
Or are you going to tell me that you dont have ultra-nationalists?

 

[atatwolf]

yes, you turks'stupidity has no limit.
normal people is below you guys inthis field without surprise

Like every country Turkey also has its loose cannons. Fortunately for us there are only few in Turkey while China is being ruled by communist criminals.

Russia also has many ethnic Turkic folks living within its territory, but why the ultra-nationalist Turks don't go after Russia? Because they must believe that Russia is a bad boy, while China is a nice little boy, so it deserves to be bullied, right?

I don't know, .but I must mention though that I don't support oppression of Uighurs or any other people anywhere on earth. On the other hand, Uighurs should not allow themselves to be used by the Anglo-Zionist empire. The Anglo-Zionist empire is the biggest threat to humanity in the history of mankind by far. Anyway, I hope you don't think China is entirely innocent? China is not a "nice little boy" as you claimed, let's not fool ourselves. Human beings are dangerous creatures. I was referring to hypocrites like Atatwolf who always go on about China while ignoring Western crimes, or Turkish crimes against the Kurds throughout history. Atatwolf and his likes have no problem with oppressing Kurds, I'm absolutely certain about that. I don't think he even knows what the Turkish state has done to those people for decades.

Turks protesting against China attack Koreans 'by mistake' - Yahoo News

Turkish nationalists protesting China's treatment of ethnic Uighur Muslims attacked a group of Korean tourists in the heart of Istanbul's old city on Saturday, mistaking them for Chinese nationals.

Hundreds of angry protesters marched towards the Topkapi Palace on the banks of the Bosphorus Strait in a show of solidarity with the Turkic Uigurs, who complain of cultural and religious suppression under Chinese rule.

Shouting "Allahu Akbar" (God is the Greatest), they attacked some Koreans outside the Topkapi Palace, which is visited by thousands of tourists every day.

The tourists were rescued by riot police, who fired tear gas to disperse the attackers, members of the notorious far-right Grey Wolves closely affiliated with Nationalist Movement Party (MHP).

Video footage by Dogan news agency showed a distraught Korean tourist telling reporters: "I'm not Chinese, I'm Korean."

The incident came amid a row between Ankara and Beijing over Turkish media reports of restrictions on Muslim Uighurs worshipping and fasting during the holy month of Ramadan.

Turkey this week summoned the Chinese ambassador to convey its concern over the alleged restrictions. Beijing in turn denied the allegations and demanded that Turkey clarify its statements.

A total of 173 Uighurs arrived in Turkey from Thailand on Tuesday where they were being held after fleeing China. Beijing expressed displeasure with Turkey on Friday for accepting the group.

Over the last week hundreds of Turkish nationalists across the country have demonstrated to protest China's alleged Ramadan bans.

A popular Chinese restaurant in Istanbul was attacked on Wednesday and had its windows smashed by a group protesters who did not realise it was Turkish-owned and that its chef was an ethnic Uighur.

A predominantly Muslim country, Turkey shares linguistic and religious links with the Uighur community, which has several associations here.

Istanbul/Constantinople is not safe for foreign tourists. At least in Syria, the government is actively fighting terrorists. In Turkey, the two appear to be in collusion.

Lol

 

[flamer84]

LOL at using Constantinople just to troll.

 

[Lure]

I don't know why people even travel there....there are many peaceful and beautiful places, why Turkey?

Turkey is a very peaceful place to visit. I'm deeply sorry on behalf of those barbarians.

Turkish people (especially proletariat, which constitutes an important portion of population) are extremely right leaning and sentimental (or wild hearted if I put it in terms of Buddist culture). That's why they can be easily manupilated. But please don't ever think Turkey is a bad place or every Turk is like that.

It's just that for the last decade and a half Turkey is having some identity crisis. But I hope we will pass this phase and reform our democracy and society once again.

Why would anyone want to visit that terrorist shithole hub anyway?

Fighting a 30 year war against terrorists in not 'oppression'. The government did what any government, including the Iranian government, would do: protect it's population, and jail/kill trouble seekers.

Well, China is not perfect, but compared to others, China looks like angel.

BTW, Xinjiang is multicultural land, not the sole territory of Uighur.

They are in the same category as some Chinese members here,dont you think?
Or are you going to tell me that you dont have ultra-nationalists?

The Chinese 'ultra-nationalists' here don't mess with Turkey's internal affairs.

Turks are not very smart people.

Those like Atatwolf certainly aren't, but there are definitesmart people in Turkey like everywhere else.

The Turkish state itself (like most states) has practised state terrorism, but you seem totally clueless. The truth is much uglier and more complicated than you think.

China is the last to complain about that. Your communist leadership messes with the internal affairs of Japan, Taiwan, Vietnam, Philipenes, Indonesia, and I'm probably missing some. Beijing is making too many enemies. Other than banana states, nobody supports China's policies.

I think you are mentioning about the US here.

No?
Are you sure?
They are supporting a Kurdish state on Turkish territory,arent they?
So a Chinese can support a Kurdish state on Turkish territory but Turks cant protest China?
Cant cope with criticism huh?
See,there is no reason to defend those that make you look bad,did any of the ''mature'' Chinese members ever say anything to the ''Chinese Troll Army'' on PDF,maybe to stop acting like idiots?
We Turks used to tell our members to stop trolling, until we had seen that other nationalities dont ever do that,so we understood that maturity is not needed here.

BTW, Xinjiang is multicultural land, not the sole territory of Uighur.

Yes,you are right,the Netherlands is also a multicutural land,but to whome does it belong?

China hasn't supported any Kurdish movement yet, if we did, then you wouldn't feel so relax right now.
