Subject: RE: BS: How to rule by fear - Execute them
The real ugliness didn't start until the Ottoman Empire fell at the end of the First World War. The openness and expansiveness came to a juddering halt and the teeth came out and the claws from the velvet. I don't know why that should be; but it's not because the religion suddenly got "young" again.
