Great Homos in History |  |
Die Welt reports that the fat bastard Belgians are teaching their children that Ataturk, revered father of the modern secular Turkish state, was a total homo. Not surprisingly, initial response from the Bosporus is not receptive to this claim.
No time to translate the whole piece- feel free to work on it yourself and update as appropriate.
Mustafa Kemal Atatürk gay? Never heard that - alcoholic yes, but gay?
Let’s face it - the Turks are a hell of a lot tougher than Belgians both individually and nationally and Atatürk is their biggest national hero. I foresee some Belgians getting beat-downs.

It is worth noting that neighboring Germany has a large and touchy Turkish minority. And so might Belgium, for all I know.My point is that revenge-minded Turks won’t have to march out of Anatolia to deliver whup-ass to the infidels, as they historically have; they’re already there.
Posted by GeekLethal on 03/28 at 02:26 PMThere were homos in history? Who knew?

(edited to remove even the Google translation link - it effed the page up to no end, and didn’t work. Hmmph.)
