No the Pope did not call Turks Gods but naming them as Godless and a ruthless enemy. More like a thief from the very beginning, stealing the Balkans and Asia Minor which White Caucasians were native to.   Constanople is a renmant of a Greek colony called Byzantium and when the milleniums passed on, this colony gradually became a powerful and wealthy city, a capital of the Byzantine Empire which was sacked by the Ottomans. Istanbul is on the site of constanople until Ataturk renamed it as Istanbul. Besides Constanople and many of the historical sites in Turkey are sacred to the whites living in the Aegean for example the 5000 years old site Troy, capital of the Lydian Kingdom.  Yes, Whites were the original inhabitants of Anatolia. Not only the Greeks, Trojans, Lycians, Hittites and Romans, but also the Celts used to have a presence in what is now called Turkey.     Do the Turks belong in Europa? HELL NO!  The Turks don't even belong in Turkey!!
