Cem, you are another non-funny ignoramus Turk ....

Piss off!

Cem, I think you pissed off the little old lady here mate.

I know. But we can make it up. Come on Oracle, let's bury the hatchet and give me a kiss.



P.S : I do look like Charlton Heston albeit a bit shorter than him.

[Cem]

She is a les greek woman going to army so what?

It shows that a person of Turkish ethnic origin can now feel comfortable about being a citizen of Greece, and equally that Greece now feels comfortable about having citizens of Turkish ethnic origin. If you know something about the history of this part of the world, you will realise that this gives cause for hope. If you don't, you will ask, "So what?"

Well, sorry to burst your bubble, but I for one have to ask "So what ?" question, Tim. I personally met a Greek guy serving in my regiment who later turned to be my best friend during my military service in Turkey . As I was later to find out, there had been substantial number of people in the Turkish army holding Greco- Turkish dual citizenships some of which from Greek families long departed from Turkey following the population exchange. As a matter of fact, some of these folks were in the service in the aftermath of 1980 military Coup D'etat marking one of the most cruel episodes of the recent Turkish history. However, the Junta took special care to treat them exclusively well to foster a good image at that time.

I can guess what Tim's reply will be Cem and I can't wait to read it.

In the days of the East Roman Empire we used to employ Turkish tribes as missionaries .So it seems that the tradition goes on.

This is interesting information, but I don't really see that you have said anything that detracts from my point.

Your point still stands Tim.

The young girl is a Greek citizen and as such has the right to serve her country as a professional soldier. Her heritage has nothing to do with the matter.

A trail-bike riding female soldier? How feminine!

Do you feel threatened when you see a strong woman with enough character to take charge in a male dominated world and stand on her own 2 feet as an equal in a dynamic military?
