    Greeks have good relations with the Arab World . Many Greeks lived in Egypt and neighboring countries where they were allowed to have their schools, communities and churches. Every culture and religion is not superior of inferior to the other , each one can contribute to human understanding and progress. It is human beings who use the cloak of religion or invoke their deity to perpetrate heinous crimes against their humanity.

    Greeks may be hostile to Turkiye not because Turkish people forced them to be muslims, its because Turkish people beated them in 1923 and 1974 wars, they are still afraid and spend a lot of money on weapons, they have so much weapons on the 12 islands, and they support the terrorist organisation PKK in Turkiye.

    Hello every body,
    Many thanks to my dear journal for publishing such an article. USA is a great country and because it is open minded it became the best country in the world. The world needs peaceful men and women who find the good things about people and encourages these charateristics. On the other hand they good people know how to treat the bad ethics patiently and acurately. Islam as a religion has much of good things that many people like such as beleiving in God, all of his prophets without any exception, beleive in his holybooks and angles. Furthermore, Islam encourages the beleivers to say the truth and avoid lies and keep their promises. Moreover, Islam encourages helping the poor and needy and to be kind to animals as well as trees. Best wishes to you. Khalid

    Greeks are not hostile against Islam or Muslim nations in general. Greeks resent Turkey for the 400-500 years of Ottoman occupation as well as many anti-Greek atrocities in the 20th century alone, ranging from genocide to illegal appropriation of property to territorial invasion. Greeks have always respected and have always been in good terms with other Muslim nationalities, and especially with our southern neighbors, the Arabs.
