But dont confuse the collapse of the Ottoman Empire with Turkey

[Get Real!]

So tell us Bilako... have you setup the lovely desktop background that unkie GR has gifted you?

How you nothing to say about Canakkele and fighting at the front against the Turks . Are you the second reincarnation of Grivas?

Where on earth is "Canakkele"? What makes you guys think we know what places you're talking about when Turkey has suddenly changed centuries' old names?

Most foreigners know it as Gallippoli through the ridiculous movie they made about it

The Greeks were in Çanakkale too?

I thought that was a different war, Çanakkale was fought between the British, French, Australians, New Zealand and India vs Turkey and I don't think anyone managed to even get onto Çanakkale alive let alone travelling further down.

The Greeks came in another war shortly after Çanakkale along with the British, French, Armenia and Italy which was of course another serious defeat.

Aren't you (Shah) the one confusing Turks with Ottomans?

Well you class the 2 battles as a success when it was the Ottomans who fought them not Turkey.

I had no idea they were talking about Gallipoli... why couldn't they just say so?

Both battles were fought by Ataturk, how is that the Ottoman Empire?

The Empire was pretty much all lost in the Balkan wars by then.
