Human rights in Greece?

Postby bg_turk » Wed Sep 07, 2005 4:21 pm

Look who is giving Turkey lessons in human rights. Apparently human rights in Greece are only for greeks, and not for barbarian (by definition: anybody coming form outside the hellenic world).

I am amazed and shocked at your ability to derive patriotic excitement from the inhumane treatment by Greece of helpless refugees.

Look who is giving Turkey lessons in human rights.


There is no country with 100% perfect human rights record. The problem with the asylum seekers is one that many European countries have.

Even the professors themselves are not perfect and they make mistakes, but they still give lessons, don't they?

Greece has a hugely better human rights record than Turkey and it would be better for Turkey to take some lessons instead of trying to find excuses as to why they should continue to have one of the worst human rights records in the world.

Melis, my rights are violated by the Turkish army. I am not just a bystander.

I am not playing any kind of blame games here. I am just saying that Turkey has one of the worst human rights records (which is a fact), and saying "oh, you see you are not perfect either so stop giving us lessons" is a cheap excuse.

bg_turk,
Bildiğimiz gibi insanhakları ve demokrasi, toplumları yönlendirmek için icât edilmiş kavramlar olup hiçbir ülkede tam anlamıyla yoktur.
Ama tabiki söz konusu Türkiye ise mutlaka var olmalı hatta zevel eksik uygulanmamalıdır.


ps: bunları ingilizce yazsam "sevgili" piratis'in tanımladığı extremist sınıfına atanacağım için bu şekilde kalsınlar kimse çevirmesin lütfen:)
