3196) Other Treaty Of Lausanne: American Public & Official Debate On Turkish-American Relations by John M. Vander Lippe

On August 6, 1923 Joseph Grew, the American representative at the Lausanne Conference, and Ismet Pasha, the Foreign Minister of the nationalist government of Ankara, signed a Treaty of Amity and Commerce in Lausanne, Switzerland. The "other" Treaty of Lausanne was meant to establish diplomatic and commercial relations between the United States and the new Turkish Government.

But now we have the full details of the back stage, the reason of prejudice and the exploitation of Christianity by clergy over politicians You have exposed so much material that does not only prove the childish distortions of bare facts, but put so many "un-fit or careless scholars" into shame because of their shallowness.

I think you need to add a motto for your blog declaring that it is aimed for: TRUTH Seekers, Speakers, Readers and DEFENDERS!

Those who do not have the courage to learn FACTS should be happy with TALES!,,,
