#3 There are all sorts of variables in trying to label this event. An economic component, a religious component, wartime loyalty and treachery, whether it was purely genocidal in character or more like ethnic cleansing that became genocidal over time. The starvation was not unique. Half a million had starved in Syria during WWI. Perhaps the best perspective is to look at all the events happening in Turkey during that period, just to point out how relatively small the genocide might seem, compared to other circumstances. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ataturk |

#2 It becomes increasingly difficult to grant Turkey the least shred of credibility as a secular nation. A common bond of genocide and holocaust denial gives them far too much in common with all the other Islamic pissholes. |

#1 Turkey warns US over genocide law Kinda like if Germany not only denied the holocaust ever happened, but also pretended joooos genocided germans, and had laws putting anybody who might contradict the official version of History in jails for YEARS. Bottom line is : if turkey doesn't recognize and pologize for its genocidal past, dating to even before the 1915 genocide and spreading in its balkans colonies, then, it is still a genocidal State. Which won't prevent the eurabists of letting it join the EU, even while it military occupy an EU State member (with genocidal & ethnic cleasing occurring). |
