	Young Turks - Promoting Turkish Culture
		Formed in 1992 among a group of young Turks, that were dissatisfied with the misrepresentation and lack of equal coverage of Turkiye during the 92' Olympics, Young Turks first organized a protest against NBC Studios and Bob Costas.
		Young Turks were regularly mentioned in the main Turkish and Turkish American newspapers and were even featured in a Ugur Dundar "Arena" special.
		Sayin Turk toplumu destekleriniz sayesinde sizlere hizmet verme imkanimiz olmaktadir Desteklerinizi bekliyoruz Dernegimiz kar amacli bir dernek degildir...

	Young Turks and the Armenian Genocide
		The Young Turk Movement emerged in reaction to the absolutist rule of Sultan Abdul-Hamid (Abdulhamit) II (1876-1909).
		The backbone of the movement was formed by young military officers who were especially disturbed by the continuing decline of Ottoman power and attributed the crisis to the absence of an environment for change and progress.
		The Young Turks earned further public support when their intervention was required to suppress the April 1909 counter-revolution staged by the palace.

	Hanioglu - Young Turks
		The Young Turks considered their ideal society an ummah, and positivism's refutation of the individual as the simplest unit of society and the importance that it attributed to the division of labor were corroborated by Islam Ahmed Riza wrote: "The Government of Islam is a collective authority in which every free citizen.
		The Young Turks' approach was similar to the thesis of Mexican positivists, led by Miguel S. Macedo, on relations between "superiors and inferiors." Like the Young Turks, this wing of the Mexican positivists- so-called Cientificos-tried to establish a society grounded on the laws of science.
		Although the Young Turk movement has been defined as a political opposition activity, little in the writings of CUP members was political, and the leaders rarely commented on their political tendencies.

	Young Turks and Kurds: a set of 'invisible' disadvantaged groups
		Turks do not occupy a clear position in the white/non-white divide upon which current understanding of 'ethnic minorities' is based.
		The young Turks and Kurds have to fend for themselves in a school system which is partly riven by ethnic conflicts and apparent teacher disinterest in their special problems.
		For many young Turks and Kurds, their families and communities seem to be a source of economic security and may feed their optimism.

	The Young Turks – Children of the Borderlands?
		The Young Turk ideal was that of the “Unity of the (ethnic and religious) Elements” (İttihadı Anasır) and they felt this could only be achieved by giving all communities a stake in the empire through parliamentary representation.
		The Young Turks were a mixed group of civilians and military officers and among the civilians we find medical doctors, educators and administrators.
		A caveat is in order, though: because the Young Turks were often sons of officers or bureaucrats, their birthplace may be the place their fathers were stationed at a given time.

	Turkey - The Young Turks (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		One young officer, Mustafa Kemal (later known as Atatürk), organized a secret society among fellow officers in Damascus and, later, in Thessaloniki (Salonika) in present-day Greece.
		Also known as the Young Turks, this group sought to restore the 1876 constitution and unify the diverse elements of the empire into a homogeneous nation through greater government centralization under a parliamentary regime.
		The Young Turk government was weakened by splits between nationalist and liberal reformers, however, and was threatened by traditionalist Muslims and by demands from non-Turkish communities for greater autonomy.

	Little Jack Melody - Bios - Historic Young Turks
		One of the original Young Turks, Dave appears on "On The Blank Generation," "World of Fireworks," "My Charmed Life" and on every (unreleased) live or studio recording of LJM&HYTs, up until his departure for the gray, spectral anonymity of NYC in 1998.
		Scott, another original Young Turk, is able to recite any tune upon request, able to sing out any note with perfect pitch, and able to punctuate any utterance with a perfectly priceless pun.
		Rossen contributed to the Young Turks as a performer, touring several times with LJM in the east, and as a stylist, bringing a fresh, explosive jazz flavor to the ensemble.

	STATISTICS OF TURKEY'S GENOCIDE AND MASS MURDER
		Democide had preceded the Young Turk's rule and with their collapse at the end of World War I, the successor Nationalist government carried out its own democide against the Greeks and remaining or returning Armenians.
		Although the Germans were still friendly toward the Young Turks they had supported during the war, the evidence on the genocide presented at the trial convinced the court that the assassination was justified.
		Of greatest importance are the estimates of the Young Turk's genocide during the war.

	Re: Young Turks
		The expression is a figurative application of the Young Turks, which was the popular name for the Committee of Union and Progress, a revolutionary reformist group that led a successful rebellion in (yes!) Turkey in 1908 and held power for another decade or so.
		: The word Turk has been used since the sixteenth century to mean 'a person having characteristics traditionally applied to the Turks; (specifically) a cruel or tyrannical person'; there is an isolated example in 1904 of the phrase "young Turk" which is probably just an application of this sense.
		The Young Turks were the reformers of the Ottoman Empire, a revolutionary group that seized power in 1908 from the aging sultans; in 1922 the House of Osman gave up and the Young Turks - middle-aged by then - set up a republic.

		The Young Turks were a Turkish nationalist reform party, officially known as the Committee of Union and Progress (CUP) — in Turkish the Ittihad ve Terakki Cemiyeti — whose leaders led a rebellion against Sultan Abdul Hamid II (who was officially deposed and exiled in 1909).
		The Young Turks had their origins in secret societies of progressive university students and military cadets, driven underground along with all political dissent after the constitution was abrogated by the Sultan.
		Rebuffed elsewhere by the major European powers, the Young Turks, through highly secret diplomatic negotiations, led the Ottoman Empire to ally herself with Berlin during World War I. The Empire's role as an ally of the Central Powers is part of the history of that war.

	Young Turks take on Doyle ally - National - www.theage.com.au
		A member of the so-called "Young Turks" group of eastern suburbs Liberals, 28-year-old Michael Gidley, is this morning expected to formally nominate to challenge Mr Wells, 46, for preselection for his seat of Scoresby.
		Another Liberal frontbencher said the fact that as of last night the Young Turks had not formally nominated for Scoresby - the deadline for nominations is noon today - showed they were either "playing childish games or are very poorly organised".
		Mr Gidley is close to the two Young Liberal branches in the Scoresby electorate as well as the senior branch of Waverley East.

	The Young Turks: Who were they? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		The conspiratorial leadership, who came to be known as the Young Turks, expressed their dissatisfaction with the status quo, throwing all of the blame on the Sultan, Abdul Hamit, who they proclaimed to be too dictatorial.
		The Young Turks then sent a telegraphed ultimatum to the Sultan from Serres on the 21st of July.
		An example of the Itihàt-Masonic connection is the interview that Young Turk, Refik Bey, gave to the Paris newspaper Le Temps, on the 20th of August 1908: "It's true that we receive support from Freemasonry and especially from Italian Masonry.

		With the coming of war in Europe in August 1914 the Young Turk administration proved far more receptive to German friendship than to approaches from the Allies, and eventually ended a stance of neutrality at the end of August 1914 by declaring an alliance with Germany (secretly agreed as early as 2 August 1914).
		A "pal's battalion" was comprised of soldiers raised in the same locality with the promise they would serve with their friends for the duration of the war.

	Young Turks The Splendid Blond Beast
		These were the original "Young Turks," and their capacity for cruelty and violence still reverberates in that phrase today.
		At the height of the genocide, a factional split among the Young Turks opened the possibility that Turkey might put an end to the massacres in exchange for an agreement from the Associated Powers to abandon their claims on Turkey and the Ottoman Empire.
		As far as can be determined, the other Young Turks never learned of Djemal's secret correspondence with the enemy, and he remained part of the ruling triumvirate for the remainder of the war.

		The Turks of to-day are precisely the same as those who followed Mohammed the Conqueror through the gates of Constantinople on May 29, 1453, and they have amply demonstrated that they do not differ from those whom Gladstone denounced for the Bulgarian atrocities of 1876.
		The reign of terror, the Turks’ immemorial method of rule, was on in earnest, and the next step taken to generalize it was the so-called "disarming".
		The Turk never had any intention of giving equal liberty to all the peoples who were so unfortunate as to be in his power.

	Educational Resources -- The Armenian Genocide: Context and Legacy
		In 1915 the objective of the Young Turks was to plunder and confiscate all Armenian means of sustenance, thereby increasing the probability of extinction.
		The Young Turks tapped into the full capacity of the state to organize operations against all 2 million Armenian inhabitants of the Ottoman Empire, and did it swiftly and effectively (Bryce1916;Trumpener[1968] 1989, 200-270).
		When the Young Turks deported the Armenians from Anatolia and Armenia to Syria, the result was more than simply transferring part of the population from one area of the Ottoman Empire to another.

		With regard to the party leading the “Young Turks”, in which Beys and landowners dominate, its national-liberal blindness leads it to deny that there ever existed an agrarian question.

		It seems that Kazanci men have always "died young and unexpectedly." Shafak is lavish in her descriptions and backstories as conversation among the women gets underway, but what isn't said looms large.
		She, as an Armenian, embodied the spirits of her people generations and generations earlier, whereas the average Turk had no such notion of continuity with his or her ancestors.
		And Shafak is careful to balance the gravity of her truth-telling mission with humor, until the shocking revelations and resolutions of the concluding chapters.
