This reminds me of my "Why do Balkanites fight when they are all the same i.e. Slavic mountain niggers" thread. Got over 110 pages easily.
The Turks were a bunch of raw-meat eating, pony-riding barbarians who didn't bathe, who through sheer brute strength destroyed one of the greatest civilizations that ever existed on Earth in 1453. When the Ottomans took over, they didn't allow Orthodox Christians to construct any new churches.

For the record the Italians were more than happy to provide Kemal Ataurk with arms to ethnically cleanse the Greeks from Smyrna.
Thsnks to Italians Greeks lost Northern Epirus which had been ceded to Greece.
And nowdays they go behind Cyprus back and make deals with Turkish Cypriots, asking for heir permission to go on sovereign Cypriot waters. By contrast France did not let herself bullied by Turkey. Everyone is sorry to have given Italian firms a contract to drill gas in Cypriot waters.
Italians have always acted treacherous towards Greece. They are not our friends but our pseudo-friends.

Bring evidence for your claims otherwise you just sound like yet another buffoon uttering absurd gallimaufry of nonsense. Old Turks utilized several different alphabets. Old Turkic alphabet engraved on stone stellas was of their own making. They were excellent artisans and blacksmiths. Early political organization and state foundation was brought to Eastern Europe by Turks. Seljuks were known to be far more tolerant than the Byzantines. Principles of ethnic, religious and linguistic tolerance came to Middle East and elsewhere through Turks.
“When other Christians heard of their prosperity, they sought to move under Seljuk administration, and thus escape from Byzantine oppression. Christian authors who had described the Turks during the years of the first conquest as terrifying plunderers, subsequently began to sing the praises of the Seljuk sultans to a remarkable degree; this was a natural consequence of their just and efficient administration, as well as their compassionate protection of their Christian subjects. The great religious tolerance of the Seljuks, and the freedom enjoyed by the Christians, made the latter more loyal to the Seljuks, and increased their hatred for Byzantium.” Ann K. S.
