Have to say I'm a bit bemused as to why this is in the 'Entertainment' section... perhaps it would be better elsewhere? I also find it more than a little ironic that Ataturk was born in Greece. Perhaps Thessaloniki should have a statue to him  |
It was Ottoman Empire in those days and there were most of the population were jews(strange isnt it?) And Ataturk's house is still a museum in Thessaloniki. |
