Are you for real man? Ottomans and Arabs had no culture...Statements like this bring a smile to my face and make me come back...for humour that is.

The Ottomans had no culture of their own at that time neither did the Arabs, so they had to hung on from somewhere.

I had you down for a smart man but statements like this make me think otherwise, did you manage to keep a straight face when you was typing this or did you wet yourself. :lol:

The Ottomans had a culture of plunder, looting, genocide, rape, abduction of greek babies which were made Genitsari, and desecration of religios sites and churches. They sacked villages and burned them to the ground, destroyed libraries with historicall hellenistic artefacts, and ethnically cleansed all of Asia Minor. They stole the Byzantine culture and made it their own since they had nothing themselves to offer.

All other empires, such as the Egyptian, Greek, Roman and english empires have offered the world knowledge, sciece, arts etc. What did the Ottomans offer to the world? Afterall they were mere nomads on horseback from Mongolia.

Even The EU is hesitant to allow Turkey to become a member, because what has Turkey offered to the world in the past and what will they offer in the future? :roll:

You sound like a bitter racist too me who has nothing to offer this forum apart from racist views that stem from hate towards turks and anything to do with them.
