ADANA, Turkey — The Turkish newspaper Radikal reports that 70% percent of teachers and students in Adana think that if the opportunity presents itself, some Jews, Greeks, and Armenians in Turkey would cause harm to the country. The survey, conducted by the Education and Science Workers’ Union (Egitim-Sen), polled 800 teachers and 1,066 students from various middle and high schools in Adana. The participants in the survey were asked about a series of current issues in Turkey. Fifty-one percent think that “the Turks have no friends other than fellow Turks,” and 62 percent think Turks are “a nation of heroes and soldiers.”
