President John F. Kennedy on Atatürk

[@hannibalbarca2928]

@@Picklerick20 When Atatürk was asked who your favorite commanders in the world were, he would say Timur at first, then I know that he said genghiz, Alexander, Attila, Sultan Mehmet and Hannibal.When Atatürk took İzmir from the Greeks, he entered İzmir with Timur's sword, which would tell him the great love he felt for him. He used to say that he was not only the greatest of Turkic ancestors, but also the greatest leader of the world.he also praised Hannibal in the Nutuk book.

[@charliesullivan5128]

I've read a lot about Ataturk and I truly believe that he is the most intelligent political/military leader of 20th century (and probably of all times) and the single example to that a man can literally recreate a nation. If you Turks must worship somebody, you better worship him instead of a benighted Arab warlord. Trust me, you do that and you'll outrival the Japanese in no time!

It is a shame that a large number of people of my country don't never ever understand what you said. Especially our so-called Muslims. They always ignore the fact that Ataturk created "modern" Republic of Turkey. They only proud to be an Ottoman but they don't know about Ottoman Empire. :) Anyway, well said whoever you are!

*Atatürk* was a _freeMason_ ...and who was a British Agent puppet...was a non-muslim doenmeh, and a secret descendant of Jewish false messiah Sabbatai Zwi! The evidence comes not from tracing his genealogy, but from the statements he himself made in all his OP photos he always show the sign of mason hidden hand what it's called "the master of the second veil" see these pictures and explain to me he isn't images.app.goo.gl/P5FgcT4xxC2ceScV7 images.app.goo.gl/gNPWJYVUs5bKhSLh7 images.app.goo.gl/euZzV6FE4SQfmjdt9 *Read his secret history* _Kemal Ataturk_ was initiated into *Lodge Veritas* , under a charter from the *French Grand Orient* , in 1907...he was a Freemason Over 80% of the officers in his revolutionary army were also Masons. After he assumed the presidency of the new Turkish republic, there were occasional differences, even conflicts, between him and the local leadership of the fraternity, but all is forgiven and Ataturk’s fame and status, and Freemasonry, both survive to this day in Turkey Dictator Mustafa Kemal was not only a Zionist Jew, but a Freemason as well. If you make a simple search on internet you can come across a lot of sources, articles and references about his freemasonry "The Kemalist (Secular) Republic in Turkey is the only Middle East border country with a military alliance with Zionist Israel. They pose a threat to Syria and Iraq over long simmering border disputes. Dictator Mustafa Kemal Ataturk was a secret Jewish infiltrator! This explains the alliance between the Mustafa Kemal-influenced military regime which controls Turkey and the fraudulent and criminal state of Israel! This also explains the opposition of the kemalist junta against the renaissance of Islam amongst the Muslim people of Turkey! About the Jewish dictator Mustafa Kemal: visit the Jewish home page Famous Jews." “Mustafa Kemal was born to the family of a minor customs clerk in Salonika and lost his father when he was young. There is no proof of the belief, widespread among both Jews and Muslims in Turkey, that his family came from the Doenme. As a boy he rebelled against his mother’s desire to give him a traditional religious education, and at the age of 12 he was sent at his demand to study in a military academy.” The Doenme were an underground sect of Sabbetaians, Turkish Jews who took Muslim names and outwardly behaved like Muslims but secretly believed in Sabbetai Zevi, the 17th-century false messiah, and conducted carefully guarded prayers and rituals in his name. The encyclopedia’s version of Ataturk’s education, however, is somewhat at variance with his own. Here is his account of it as quoted by his biographers: “My father was a man of liberal views, rather hostile to religion, and a partisan of Western ideas. He would have preferred to see me go to a lay school, which did not found its teaching on the Koran but on modern science.” “In this battle of consciences, my father managed to gain the victory after a small maneuver; he pretended to give in to my mother’s wishes, and arranged that I should enter the (Islamic) school of Fatma Molla Kadin with the traditional ceremony.” … “Six months later, more or less, my father quietly withdrew me from the school and took me to that of old Shemsi Effendi who directed a free preparatory school according to European methods. My mother made no objection, since her desires had been complied with and her conventions respected. It was the ceremony above all which had satisfied her.” Who was Mustafa Kemal’s father, who behaved here in typical Doenme fashion, outwardly observing Muslim ceremonies while inwardly scoffing at them? Ataturk’s mother Zubeyde came from the mountains west of Salonika, close to the current Albanian frontier; of the origins of his father, Ali Riza, little is known. Different writers have given them as Albanian, Anatolian and Salonikan, and Lord Kinross’ compendious 1964 “Ataturk” calls Ali Riza a “shadowy personality” and adds cryptically regarding Ataturk’s reluctance to disclose more about his family background: “To the child of so mixed an environment it would seldom occur, wherever his racial loyalties lay, to inquire too exactly into his personal origins beyond that of his parentage.”

Ataturk himself served in the Ottoman army. The Ottoman Empire gave rights to all non Muslim minorities and even gave them permission to serve in the army. Many Jews and Christians served in the Ottoman Army and what is the condition of Pakistan now we admire the Ottoman Empire so much but have we adopted any principles which they have adopted the same people who love the Ottoman Empire say death to Jews and Christians if Sultan Mehmet the last Ottoman Khalifa was here he would be disgusted by seeing such Pakistanis who say death to Jews and Christians even though they served the Ottoman army. Ataturk is respected worldwide and is known for his principles. He introduced women rights,made education secularised and balanced for both genders. One of his most famous quotes that I personally like is *”I have no religion, and at times I wish all religions at the bottom of the sea.

Bir çok Türk Lider vardır Atatürk'e indirgememek gerekir. Ayrıca bütün insanlığın lideri ise Hz. Muhammed'tir. Atatürk ise onun yolundan gitmek terbiyesizlikleri önlemeye çalışmış İslâm'ı yaymaya çalışmış biridir...

So what ? European didn’t have any culture like Asia and Africa.

[@ocakdeniz]

Believe me quote you've mentioned is not Ataturk's style. You should expect much wise words from him :) Here is the right one "Our object now is to strengthen the ties that bind us to other nations. There may be a great many countries in the world, but there is only one civilization, and if a nation is to achieve progress, she must be a part of this civilization. The Ottoman Empire began to decline the day when, proud of her success against the West, she cut the ties that bound her to the European nations."

[@yusuufibrahim530]

Ozgur Can Akdeniz ottoman failed mostly because of the Arabs that sided with the west. Japan and Germany was against the UK and USA and now they are lead powers

[@ocakdeniz]

Only weaks blame others for their failures. Ataturk gave the appropriate answer for that if you want to achieve things you must be a part of this one civilization that belongs to no country, no race eternally. She who trailblazer of science and logic but not dogmas are the real owner of that one civilization.
