I completely agree with everything he said and it is ridiculous that he was sacked in an nation with 'freedom of speech'. I guess SBS just jumped on the Malcolm Turnbull bandwagon and sacked him because they though he might damage their image.

Sacked for stating his view......

Free Speech?????????????
Free speech doesn't cover what your employer does. Public broadcasters can be sacked for their statements. Happens all the time.

"Imperialist invasion" = attack ON an empire whose allies started the war in the first place

the ottoman empire is responsible for some of the greatest atrocities in history but bleeding heart leftist fags never say a word against them

the turks deserved far worse than what they experienced

Aren't a lot of those "bleeding heart leftist fags" critical of the Armenian Genocide and Turkey's denial?

At least 13 muslim countries can legally execute people for blasphemy, and you want to talk about free speech?
I wouldn't be surprised if you found a way to bash Islam in the HSC discussion threads...

Sacked for stating a true fact on what really occurs during a conflict... My word...

Rings true universally, doesn't matter which side...

The way he said it...Clearly a publicity stunt. No one of his status would put out such blunt and one-sided views nationally without previously comprehending the consequences.
