Turkey destroyed all our churches since AD 330 Vs Iranian kept every thing as it is
The difference between Saljook Turks and Persians(both are called Muslims.

 The wartime reports from German and Austro-Hungarian officials, Turkey's World War I allies, released recently,

"559 villages whose surviving inhabitants were converted to Islam with fire and sword; 568 churches thoroughly pillaged, destroyed and razed to the ground; of 282 Christian churches transformed into mosques; of 21 Protestant preachers and 170 Armenian priests who were, after enduring unspeakable tortures, murdered on their refusal to accept Islam." Lepsius concluded with this rhetorical question: "Is this a religious persecution or is it not?"  And in his eloquent Wednesday 8/22/07 column "No Room to Deny Genocide" The Boston Globe's Jeff Jacoby emphasized the nexus between the jihad genocide of the Armenians, the contemporary depredations of jihad, and the dangers of denial.
