The Ottoman Turks did oppress & slaughter the Arabs[a population they considered inferior]. Look up Djemel Pasha, he's known as "The Butcher" for starving the Arab population & killing Arabs indiscriminately in the Turkish colony of Syria.

Why did they consider the Arabs "inferior"?
And I always thought that if the Ottomans did oppress the Arabs, it was probably under the Young Turks' rule (as early 1913).
Interesting!
