Acknowledging The Armenian Genocide

Submitted by Batuhan Unal, Oct 16, 2007 20:32

It's a huge mistake saying that there is no dispute. Indeed, so-called genocide is not proven by archives and historians. Prime minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan declared that Turkey would be more than happy to organize a committee of academicians who are able to work on Ottoman and the third party archives with not just Armenia but also U.S. and the other countries. There is no reply. The world is totally ignorant regarding what happened in 1915 in Turkey between Ottoman Turks and Armenians. So-called genocide is nothing but a political toy and decoy of Armenian diaspora and there isn't even a single piece of paper as a proof that there has been a genocide. As someone who studied Ottoman History, I invite the author of this article to read the history of Ottomans and the rest of the world to common sense... This approach is totally disappointed.
