Change? User:Cube - Thu Jun 3 19:58:50 UTC 2004 The entry about the end of the Greek-Turkish war in 1922 was a fanatical POV. What is considered as "saved by the Turks", can equally be described by the non-Turks (Greeks, Armenians, etc.) as "burned to ashes by the Turks". The burning of the city and fleeing of the non-turkic population is indisputable. --User:Spryom 10:20, 31 May 2005 (UTC) Equally, Mustafa Kemal, described as a "great founder", can be considered by a great many others as a genocide perpetrator. Editing is required. --User:Spryom 10:20, 31 May 2005 (UTC) Done ---- --User:Maveric149 00:15, 1 Mar 2004 (UTC) Template:September 9 selected anniversaries - Template talk:September 9 selected anniversaries - [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=Template:September_9_selected_anniversaries&action=edit edit] ---- See other meanings of words starting from letter: SSB | SC | SD | SE | SF | SG | SH | SI | SJ | SK | SL | SM | SN | SO | SP | SR | SS | ST | SU | SW | SX | SY | SZ |Words begining with September_9: September_9 September_9 September_9th September_9_(Eastern_Orthodox_Liturgics) September_9_(Eastern_Orthodox_liturgics) September_9_(Orthodox_Liturgics) September_9_selected_anniversaries September_9_selected_anniversaries |
