Anatolia is not Turkish. No Turks have the right to live there. Anatolia belongs to the following communities that the Barbaric Turks tried to cleanse through the ages: Greeks, Armenians, Assyrians, Georgians and Kurds. As you can see the majority of Anatolian communities are Eastern Orthodox. The Barbaric Turks tried to cleanse these groups from Anatolia. They want tourist to visit Christian sites but won't allow Christians to worship there. Therefore, they don't respect basic human rights they should return to their homelands in Central Asia and leave Anatolia and Cyprus free.
