Muslim Turks, under the command of Mustafa Kemal, sold the bones of the murdered Christians to bleach sugar and tobacco. After the genocide and expulsion of the Greeks from Asia Minor (1923), ships loaded with the remains of Greeks and Armenians sailed on their way to Western Europe. Turkey sold the bones of the dead. Industries used them to bleach sugar and tobacco. They ground them into fertilizer. At least 400 tons. More than 50,000 dead. Thousands of men, women, and children fell into the hands of the Kemalist army and the irregulars. Women were raped in groups. Men were tortured without limit. Entire villages that stayed behind, hoping their Turkish neighbors would show mercy, were executed. The hostages were driven on death marches across thousands of kilometers. Barefoot. Nearly naked. Beaten by villagers along the way. Many died of thirst in the ravines of Magnesia. Those ravines supplied the bones Kemal later sold. The survivors were sent to labor battalions. They rebuilt the infrastructure of the new Turkish state under conditions designed to finish them. After Lausanne, 1.5 million refugees arrived in Greece searching for relatives who never came home. This is not ancient history. This is the century that produced us. They want us to forget. They want the bones to remain fertilizer and the names to remain numbers. We do not forget. We never forget the Genocide of the Greeks of Pontus & Asia Minor by the Muslim Turks. The genocide was orchestrated by Mustafa Kemal & the Young Turks, & it was racially and religiously motivated in order to create their pseudo-nation 100 years ago. They butchered, tortured, raped, burnt and starved to death through the death marches millions of Greeks, Armenians and Assyrians. The true barbarian is the one who turns the dead into raw material and then lectures the living about civilization.
