History
The Germans who witnessed the atrocities committed by Muslims against Christians during the Ottoman period in Greece wrote: “The murder of the men and the drowning of the women was still not enough for a Muslim Turk thirsting for Christian blood; the poor innocent children were also to be sacrificed. So he had the defenseless little ones seized and mercilessly hanged from a tree. Comfortably the monster smoked his pipe beneath them, had himself served with sherbet, and rejoiced in the cries of fear and the death agonies of the guiltless little ones, for they were, after all, only — Christian children” “Gräuelscenen aus Griechenland” “Atrocity scenes from Greece.” From the 1820s by the Nuremberg publisher Friedrich Campe.
