Discussion is good I too am a Jew and here in the United States we observe Yom HaShoah in late April or early May I am neither pro Islamic nor pro Turkey I could criticize Turkey at length and would not hesitate to do so when justified by the facts Armenia comes to mind However facts are facts Turkey despite its many faults never joined the Axis It s troops did not engage in combat during World War II and so it can accurately be characterized as neutral during that war It may have been a bit hypocritical for them to join the Allies at the last minute when the war was almost won but they did And the international community accepted Turkey as a charter member of the United Nations Those are the facts of history No need to feel bad about it or about me participating in discussion about it
