Comments on: Why Not Another War? https://whynow.dumka.us/2007/04/14/why-not-another-war/ On-line Opinion Magazine...OK, it's a blog Sun, 15 Apr 2007 00:13:08 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.4.3 By: Bryan https://whynow.dumka.us/2007/04/14/why-not-another-war/comment-page-1/#comment-25454 Sun, 15 Apr 2007 00:13:08 +0000 http://whynow.dumka.us/2007/04/14/why-not-another-war/#comment-25454 But, of course, that’s not the reason.

I guess it would have been too difficult for someone to visit the area and draw the lines based on ethnic groups.

Agreed, they are all together on hating the Turks.
