anyway the turks are known as barbarians for a good reasons. there is no doubt that they murdered and tried to ethnicly clense parts of the world.

These two are very different. Most nations including Greeks and GC have many crimes against humanity. But I would not support anyone calling them barbarians.

Even in the holacoust case, crimers are mostly referred as Nazis not germans so that german nation is not insulted.

you can call them any politically correct name you like. the point is that it happened. no doubt the greeks did it but the turks are still opressing Kurds

Is the opression of kurds enough to call turkish barbarians?

No, my friend, political problems in a country is not enough to call whole nation barbarian.
