Don't come at me with this hatred and propaganda speech. I am definitely not Turkey's advocate and didn't bring up anything nationality or country related until that member brought it up.
I don't remember Kurds ever having the control of that land you are speaking of and trust me everyone is living under the same humanitary conditions and have the same rights in Turkey. If there is a lack of human rights, everyone is suffering under it regardless of heritage. Republic of Turkey was founded in 1923 and I don't remember them occupying any land in Balkans since then

If you had a problem with Ottoman Empire, their successors was living good lives in several European countries since 1923 you should have found some and discussed this topic with them.
Turkey doesn't occupy any land that belongs to Greece and all of those things you said could be said about any country and any war in history. Invasion of Cyprus was necessary because Turks were suffering under discrimination and actually were putting in ghettos. Armenian Genocide claims are disputed to this day. Countries accepting it because of pressure from a lobby doesn't change anything.
Also notice many of these disputes you've brought up happened many many years ago. You should let them go and don't let this hate propaganda get to you. We are living in 2016 and a land that belongs to Azerbaijan being under Armenian invasion is just unacceptable
