All the Anti Turks and Turcophobes have gathered against us. I share a Ziya Gokalp quote which I find really important especially in todays situation.
Düşman yine öz yurduna el attı,
Mezarından ata'n kılıç uzattı,
Yürü diyor, hakkı zulüm kanattı,
Attilâ'nın oğlusun sen unutma!
.
.
Once more the enemy has attacked your motherland,
Your ancestors handed you a sword from their tomb;
March on, they say, cruelty has wounded justice,
You're Atilla's son, do not forget! .
.
Medeniyet deme, duymaz o sağır;
Taş üstünde taş kalmasın durma kır:
Kafalarla düz yol olsun her bayır,
Attilâ'nın oğlusun sen unutma!
.
.
Do not say “Civilisation!” as she is deaf, and will not hear you;
Let no stone remain on top of another, break all;
May all hills be flattened with skulls,
Do not forget, you are Atilla’s son!
.
.
