@fen8234 Early publications about Kemal always make mention of it. For example, the very first serious work on the First World War – the landmark work History of the War by the renowned British daily The Times, published in 22 parts during 1915-1922 – did not circumvent that fact. It states in particular: “Mustafa Kemal, reported by some to be of Salonika Jewish descent, only joined the Nationalist movement openly in June, 1919” (The Break-up of Turkey, The Times History of the War, vol. XXI, London, 1920, p. 433). Another well-known Western publication, the American Literary Digest, describes Mustafa Kemal in 1922 as “[a] Spanish Jew by ancestry, an orthodox Moslem by birth and breeding” (The Sort of Man Mustafa Kemal is, The Literary Digest, October 14, 1922, vol. 75, no. 2, pp. 50-53).
