The Turkish troops came well prepared both physically and mentally. The brainwashing perfected. The hatred etched in their psyches to kill the Greek-speaking dogs.

The text of HATRED was published by the large circulation Turkish newspaper Hurriyet on 18 July 1974, just 48 hours before the Turkish invasion of Cyprus by order of the Ecevit government.

HATRED

As long as the vulgar Greek exists in this world
By Allah, this hatred won't leave me
As long as I see him there like a dog
By Allah, this hatred won't leave me
A thousand heads of infidel Giavours cannot wash away this hatred.

My only aim is revenge
When my turn comes to go to battle
In one day I'll butcher a thousand Giavours
By Allah, this hatred won't leave me
A thousand heads of infidel Giavours cannot wash away this hatred.

Even if I crush thirty thousand of their heads with a stone
Even if I wrench out the teeth of ten thousand
And throw a hundred thousand of their corpses into the river
By Allah, this hatred won't leave me
A thousand heads of infidel Giavours cannot wash away this hatred.

The whole world knows how superior the Turk is
Who crashed the Greek's fucked world over his head
Even if I burn in stokeholes the heads of five thousand of them
By Allah, this hatred won't leave me
A thousand heads of infidel Giavours cannot wash away this hatred.

Even if I slash forty thousand of them with my bayonet
And send eighty thousand of them to the devil
And hang a hundred thousand of them
By Allah, this hatred won't leave me
A thousand heads of infidel Giavours cannot wash away this hatred.


This was how they came prepared for peace .....

And this was in the name of PEACE

Primed up to kill and slaughter

God only knows what would have happened if it had been an act of war

[Nikitas]

Which sort of makes you ask why so much hatred for a people who were enslaved by Turks and therefore could not, by definition, have done much against them in the 4 centuries of enforced co existence. As for the war of independence in 1821, there were some incidents of butchery by the Greek side (Tripolis, Corinthos etc) but it ws more than offset by the Turksih side's massacres (Psara, Kasos, Chios, the Morea depopulation campaign by Ibrahim).

The next big conflict was 1922, but it did not last long enough to establish such deep emotional scars. So does anyone have explanations for the sentiments in the above poem? Do the Turks have similar emotional reactions to other ethnic groups?

Excellent post Oracle.

In fact it is a well known fact that the Turks were CULIVATING and REFINING their hatred from 1958. Their prime objective being TAKSIM.

Even to this day, their education system thrives on instilling and nurturing this hatred towards the GCs. Even to this day, their prime objective is still TAKSIM, but they have now moved on to phase 2 of their devious plans. They endeavor to achieve TAKSIM by negotiating a powerless Confederacy solution based on 2 founding states, which only makes succession easy, and with recognition to boot. It is about time we all wake up to their devious plans.

The text of HATRED was published by the large circulation Turkish newspaper Hurriyet on 18 July 1974, just 48 hours before the Turkish invasion of Cyprus by order of the Ecevit government.

This HATRED text was written to stir the nationalistic hatred of the Turks towards the Greek Dogs. The impending invasion was in it's final stages of preparation and mobilisation.

Finally, we should all ponder and think about which country in capable of writing such hatred in a high circulating paper. Would it happen in a Western Nation. Most certainly not. Only in Turkey and perhaps in a few other Eastern Nations but that is it. They obviously still need to refine themselves and nurture more humane and culturally acceptable expressions than what is depicted in that poem of HATRED.

Now we know how a nation or a people find it acceptable to slaughter 1.5 million Armenians, a Genocide only exceeded by the Nazi extermination of Jews, Gypsies and Homosexuals.

This type of HATRED is only depicted by races who have a preconceived aura of superiority of others. We have seen it with the Nazis and we have seen it with the Turks as THE WHOLE WORLD KNOWS THE SUPERIORITY OF THE TURKS.

What a very sad blight on a nation and people.

This poem is deplorable.

Calm down people Looks like Oracle has posted a thread to stir up some more 'hatred' ?

This 'article/poem' has been posted before (by Oracle as well) and far be it from me to justify the portrayed 'hatred' (or even to say 'where's the link ?' to the real article ) but just looking at the 'Hurriyet' snapshot, the headline says "Kibrista Turkler bu sarkilari soylu....." which directly translates to "In Cyprus, the Turks are sing....." which is kinda odd if it was published before 20th July would you not say ?

Why would 'Turks' or does it refer to 'Turkish Cypriots' be singing words of 'hatred' on the 18th July 1974 ?

[Paphitis]

This poem is deplorable.

You would think that such a poem can only be written by Osama Bin Laden!

But the Turks are just as capable of publishing and transmitting such HATRED. Do they not respect their children who have the misinfortune of reading such vile? Or do they accept it to cultivate and nurture the next generation with hatred towards the Greek Dogs?

[Nikitas]

Tim, it is more than deplorable, it conveys a sadistic hatred which you can almost taste. Having livedin Turkey and having a vantage point to the Turkish psyche, do you know of other ethnic groups that are viewed in the same way by the Turks?

The mere publication of the poem in a major newspaper shows that the operation of 1974 was anything but a peace operation. The poem, in conjunction with other propaganda items, like the posters showing soldiers stappin on Cyprus explain the behavior of the Turkish army once it gained the upper hand on the island.
