how long was the city occupied by English and French troops and by how many ?

[Mortimer Snavely]

You are trying to make the case that since you are too lazy to do the basic research, the facts must not exist. This is a little like an eighth grader trying to impress some of the cuter girls in the class with your dazzling wit and clever ability to irritate the teacher. You might be able to amaze some folks with this kind of thing, but you don't have a hog's chance at a barbecue of getting it past me. Do your homework. Run a Google search on the topic. Look it up in the library. Spend a relaxing day in the history section of a good book shop. Better yet, have a thrilling game of solitaire, or go clean your toenails. You are not worth any more of my time.

Maybe because they are just empty buildings.

[Destro]

Well see I tend to ask "Why are those Churches all empty?"

[PFKEY]

I think we all know the answer to that.

excuse me, but you first posited that French and English troops occupied Instanbul/Constantinopol at the end of the First World War.

I asked you for how long and by how many troops ?

You responded that my question was 'idiotic'

And somehow you appear to be making a connection with the suppossed occupation and the current attacks on Christians in Turkey as well the expulison of the majority Christian population of the city during 1920/21/22
