Talk to a Tunisian and they'll want to tell you they're French. They say things like "we have in France..." Quite amusing. Edited by Turk |

I have spent lots of time in Tunisia with relatives and have many friends from there from secondary school and I have never heard of a Tunisian saying this. I have heard of Turks who say they are Westerners and Europeans and such however (especially when I was in Sweden) I am not sure if this is the popular sentiment however. |

I eat Sushi often, and used to study Japanese. I hope that does not
mean I have converted to being a Japanese without knowing

Japanese is closed society. Arabs are not. IF you live as an Arab, speak the Arabic language as native or mother tongue, identify with the Arab cause, you may be an Arab. Obviously it is hard for Westerners to understand this concept while their societies are racially closed and hierarchical.

Since when did the Turks who came from Central Asia and live in Asia become Europeans?

No, since the Paris Peace Conference of 1857. According to this treaty, the Ottoman Empire was a member of the System of European Nations.
