War is so strange.
It brings out the beast within humans, makes monsters out of men.
Yet at the same time, it moulds separate fates and enemy hearts into one single statue.
A statue of valor, sacrifice, compassion, and dignity...
Just like the one depicted here:
A Turkish soldier carrying a wounded Anzac -his foe-
"Heroes who shed their blood and lost their lives!
You are now lying in the soil of a friendly country.
Therefore rest in peace.
There is no difference between the Johnnies and Mehmets to us,
Where they lie side by side here in this country of ours.
You, the mothers, who sent their sons from far away countries, wipe away your tears;
Your sons are now lying in our bosom and are in peace.
After having lost their lives on this land, they have become our sons as well."
Quoted from a tribute to the Anzacs who lost their lives at Gallipoli.
Written by M.K. Ataturk, who is the founder of the Turkish Republic.
This script is also inscribed on a memorial in the Turakena Bay, Gallipoli.
