Things mentioned in the article are true but written in a totally biased point of view. I neither have time nor interest to explain them.

Keep going in your racist, xenophobic world view and enjoy your super-state and wonderful religion.

Like we've known, you're full of shit and have no real facts or arguments, you just resort to name calling and personal attacks when someone proves you wrong and calls you out on your lies.

What a loser you are.

Here is more truth about your odd man state:

I dont like to discuss people like you especially on the internet, you find an article negative about Turkey and then claim how terrible Turks, Ottoman Empire and Islam, great method to coming conlusion about a society in social sciences which I believe you didnt attend even one hour class.

You are in great contradiction with the intellectuals and high society of your own country. Most famous sultan of Turks, portrait of Sultan Suleyman decorates the wall of your House of Representatives Chamber.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Su...es_chamber.jpg

Osmanoğulları, relatives of Ottoman dynasty are very modern, and very respected people among American high society.



And Ottoman-United States friendship decorate the most famous monument of your country. I advice you to read more at least about your own history and capital city. Clearly foreign cultures and society are above your intellect.

I've been to Turkey many times, I travel the world quite often, so I do know what I'm talking about.

Hanging pictures on the wall does nothing to negate the problems with your claimed "secular" Islamic state, of which I've posted the concerns of the world.

Again, no real facts from you, just random pictures and articles of interest to no one.

You are a semi educated loser posting on a western website, desperately trying like the rest of your sad little obsolete countrymen to be someone you're not nor can ever be.

[Tyberius]

Right, all those Kurd and Armenians died just to spite Turkey and give you bad name, right?
All those atrocities you committed over innocent people are taken out of context. Let me guess you had a valid reason to go on a barbaric slaughter of civilians that posed absolutely no threat.

Things written in the article are biased? Are you totally retarded or did all the praying 12 times a day reduce your intelligence down to the one of an earth worm.
I guess they should have written something like "Oh well Turks killed us no matter our age or gender but it's OK, we don't hold a grudge".

You wanna know why people hate Islam? Cause it's a religion of dictatorship.
Cause it's a fanatic religion. Cause even today in the 21'st century there are people who kill cause their holy book tells them to.
Show me one single video where a marine cuts someone's head off and screams "praise our lord and his son Jesus Christ the savior" and i swear to God almighty i will convert to Islam that same second.

I have no fear that this conversion will ever take place. You know why? Cause we, the western world, Christian world. Are civilized, we use our heads. We pray to our God but we do not follow it blindly like sheep.
We were, are and more than likely always will be above you.

Turks who had all the power in their three different continents for several centuries let Armenians to practice their religion, speak their language but when the empire weaken, they were fighting in lots of different fronts of WWI giving a fight of life and death decided to massacre its minority. First of all empires, especially Ottoman empire, forms by lots of different ethnic and religious groups claiming that they wanted to kick one of these is against the nature of life ! Its exactly like US to say ' we dont want Asians, Europeans in US any more '

20th century is well known for the nationalist movements of all ethnic groups. Just like Greek minority gained their independence from the empire Armenians were organizing such political movements for decades. WWI gave a chance they were waiting for, Armenians supported by Russian soldiers in the Eastern front murdered thousands of Turks and Kurds in order to change the population structure.

They were unsuccessful to gain control of the region. Ottoman empire moved those people who take place in such crimes to a distinct location in its own borders. Empire didnt attack a group of people just for their race because Armenians who live in the western part of the empire went on their life safely !

Think about a genocide which only involve a part of that race. Remember that Nazis killed even Jews' childs to protect themselves from a hostile generation. There are lots of interviews with Armenians living in the west saying ' we never effected from deportations '

Also Ottoman empire never planned their death by that deportation but all these lost caused by harsh winter conditions of the year. We have to keep in mind that in Sarıkamış 90.000 Ottoman soldiers frozen and eatten by dogs in those days you can watch it in the videos I'll show you.

I wont talk about PKK which you call innocent Kurds, my commander in the Turkish army was a Kurd who loves his country, PKK is in the terrorist organization list of both USA and EU thats enough in my opinion.

Me, I'll believe the 21 countries that condemn the Armenian genocide rather than some youtubes posted by delusional losers.

"Armenian Genocide recognition refers to the formal acceptance that the massacre and forced deportation of Armenians committed by the Ottoman Empire in 1915-1923 constitute genocide. The overwhelming majority of historians as well as academic institutions on Holocaust and Genocide Studies recognize the Armenian Genocide.[1] As of 2009, twenty-one countries including Canada, Argentina and Sweden and forty-three states of the United States of America have followed suit as well.[2] Turkey denies the Armenian genocide, but a few lone Turkish voices have recently joined international critics in condemnation of Ankara's position.[3]"

Assembly Concurrent Resolution No. 51

Whereas, The Armenian Genocide of 1915-1923 was the first genocide of the 20th Century, in which 1.5 million men, women, and children lost their lives of the hands of the Turkish Ottoman Empire, and

Whereas, During the seven decades of the USSR’s existence, the government of Soviet Azerbaijan conducted a systematic policy of removal of Karabakh Armenians from their historic homeland,” and

Whereas, Armenians in Azerbaijan fell victim to the Sumgait Pogroms in 1988 resulting in 72 deaths, the Baku anti-Armenian riots in 1990 resulting in 68 Armenian deaths, and the mass deportations of 350,000 Armenians from Azerbaijan, and

Resolved by the Assembly of the State of California, the Senate thereof concurring, That the Legislature of the State of California hereby designates April 24, 1997, as “California Day of Remembrance for the Armenian Genocide of 1915-1923, and for the victims of the Sumgait Pogroms of 1988 and Baku Riots of 1990”; and be it further

Resolved, That the Chief Clerk of the Assembly transmit copies of this resolution to the governor and to the Armenian Genocide Commemorative Committee.

April 1997 - The Kurdish Parliament in Exile, passed a resolution recognizing and marking the Armenian Genocide. Below is the entire text of that resolution, which is being reprinted in its entirety and without any editorial posturing.
In Kurdistan, together with the Kurdish people, live Assyrian-Syrians as well as Armenians.

Invasion, occupation and division of Kurdistan, has not only affected the Kurds but also the Assyrian-Syrians as well as the Armenian peoples. Imposed colonialist policies have set these people against the Kurdish people and against each other, have created clashes and forced deportations and exiles. In our country, by setting the peoples against each other, the bloodiest imposed period of colonialist policies is 1915 and the few years following that.

On April 24, 1915, the decision of mass genocide and annihilation of the Assyrian-Syrian and the Armenian peoples was taken by the Ottoman Empire.

The blueprints of and the logistics for this genocide being prepared ahead of time, they employed Hamidiye Alaylari from Kurdish tribes (Similar to the present day Village Guards system who kill our people) to commit history’s, until then unknown, Genocide. In this Genocide, millions of Armenians and Assyrian-Syrians were killed, and millions others were deported from their homes and land and scattered to the four corners of the world.

The Turkish State which practices policies of setting peoples and people of diverse opinions against each other, still pursues the same repulsive policies at the end of the 20th century. Similar to setting-up Alevis and Sunnis against each other, they set-up the Kurdish people against each other through their creation, the Village Guards, which consist of Kurdish Jahshs. Separately, through their diverse assaults to annihilate the Kurdish people, they are registering new pages in the annals of genocides.

The Turkish State regime, from history to our days, has worked against the peoples, as if a guilty party, and with her committed genocides has changed the demographics of Anatolia causing the demise of many cultures-civilizations. The same policies are being applied in Kurdistan today. I call upon the world public opinion to become aware of this Turkish State policies and vehemently oppose it.

Today is the 82nd anniversary of the genocide committed against the Assyrian-Syrian and Armenian peoples. Sharing the agony caused by this process, I find the Ottoman State and their collaborators the Hamidiye Alaylari, formed by some Kurdish tribes, responsible for this crime before history and I condemn them with abhorrence. Zubeyir Aydar Chairman of the Executive Committee

13 June 1997 - The Association of Genocide Scholars during its second international conference, unanimously adoptsa resolution recognizing the Armenian Genocide and condemning its denial by the Turkish Government and its official and unofficial agents and supporters.

22 November 1997 - The Municipal Council of Milano, Italy adopts a resolution through which it condemns the Armenian Genocide and asks from the Italian Government to recognize the Armenian Genocide as many other countries and organizations have done.

26 March 1998 - The Belgian Senate passes a resolution calling on the Turkish government to "recognise the reality of the Genocide perpetrated in 1915 by the last government of the Ottoman Empire".

29 March 2000 - The parliament of Sweden passed a resolution recognizing the Armenian Genocide. The Committee on Foreign Affairs of the Swedish Parliament states in its committee report, which the Parliament accepted as its own:

"An official statement and recognition ot the Genocide of the Armenians is important and necessary. In 1985, the UN and the European Parliament established the fact that the Ottoman Empire had committed genocide against the Armenian People in the beginning of the 20th century. The Committe on Foreign Affairs is of the opinion that the greater openness that Turkey presents, the stronger Turkey's democratic identity will be. It is therefore important that unbiassed, independent and international research on the genocide that affected the Armenian people will be accomplished.

It is of great importance that an increasing openness and historical understanding of the events of 1915 and thereafter can be developed. An improvement in this respect would also be of importance for the stability and the development in the whole Caucaus region."

January 2001 - The French parliament adopted a law stating: "France publicly recognizes the Armenian genocide of 1915." It was signed by President Jacques Chirac, a conservative, and Socialist Prime Minister Lionel Jospin.

It's not ancient history either Ali, get your lies straight.

Declarations of Recognition - Individuals
"Our fellow countrymen committed unheard of crimes, resorted to all conceivable methods of despotism, organized deprtations massacres, poured gas over babies and burned them, raped women and girls in front of their parents who were bound hand and foot, took girls in front of their parents and fathers, appropriated personal property and real estate, drove people to Mesopotamia and treated them inhumanly on the way . . . they put thousands of innocent people into boats that were sunk at sea . . . they put Armenians in the most unbearable conditaons any other nation had ever known in its history."

MUSTAFA KEMAL ATATURK
(Quoted by Paul deVeou, "La Chute d'Alexandrette", Paris, 1938)


"The Turkish Government began and ruthlessly carried out the infamous massacre and deportation of Armenians in Asia Minor. The clearance of the race froom Asia Minor was about as complete as such an act, on a scale so great, could well be."

SIR WINSTON SPENCER CHURCHILL (1874-1965)
British statesman and historian.


"From May until October the Ottoman Government pursued methodically a plan of extermination far more hellish than the worst possible massacre. Orders for deportation of the entire Armenian population to Mesopotamia were despatched to every province of Asia Minor. These orders were explicit and detailed. No hamlet was too insignificant to be mmsed. The news was given by town criers that every Armenian was to be ready to leave at a certaa.n hour for an unknown destination. There were no exceptions for the aged, the ill, the women in pregnancy."

DR. HERRERT A. GIBBSONS
"The Blackest Page of Modern-History" Putnam, New York 1916


"The whole plan of extermination was not:hing less than a cold- blooded, calculated political measure, having for its object the annih- lation of a superior element in the population, which might prove 'troublesome, and to this must be added the motive of greed."

FRATJOF NANSEN (1861-1930)
Norwegian statesman and humanitarian. Winner of the 1922 Nobel Peace Prize.
High Commissioner for Refugees under the League of Nations


". . . It would s!eem that three-fourths or four-fifths of t.he whole nation has been wiped out, and there is no case in history, certainly not since the time of Tameriane, in which any crime so hideous and upon so large a scale has been recorded."

". . . Wherever the Armenians, almost wholly unarmed as they were, have fought, they have fought in self-defence to defend their families and themselves from the cruelty of the ruffians who constitute what is called the Government of the country. There is no excuse whatever, upon any such ground as some German authorities and newspapers allege, for the conduct of the Turkish Government. Their policy of slaughter and deportation has been wanton and unprovoked. It appears to be simply an applicatzon of the maxim once enunciated by Sultan Abdul Hamid: "The way to get rid of the Armenian Question is to get rid of the Armenians"; and the policy of extermination has been carried out with far more thoroughness and with far more blood-th.irsty completeness by the present heads of the Turkish Administration - they describe themselves as the Committee of Union and progress- than it was in the time of Abdul Hamid."

VISCOUNT JAMES BRYCE
British Statesman and scholar, Regina Professor of Civil Law at Qxford, Undersecretary of stats for foreign affairs.
Author of many historical works among which The Armenians Under The Ottoman Empire.
(Extracts from a speech delivered in the House of Lords of Great Britain, on October 6, 1915.)


"I would li.ke to see Europe, that wept over Uncle Tom's Cabin, think over the outrages perpetrated by the Turks in Armenia. Eight centuries ago a lesser injustice than these crimes would have caused an avenging Crusade. It is the duty of the Allied Powers, fighting now against the Central Empires, to grant freedom to Armenia. Otherwise the remnant of this unfortunate nation will become anarchists, and if they were to destroy Constantinople by dynamite, I a bishop, standing before the altar of Christ, would without any compunetion pronounce their action not only justified, but even sanctified."

MONSIGNOR TOUCHET
Bishop of Orleans, France.


"The great massacres and persecutions of the past seem almost insignificant when compared with the sufferings of the Armenian race in 1915."

HENRY MORGENTHAU
United States Ambassador at Constantinople during the First World War. From "Ambassador Morgenthau's Story"


"Let us not forget that the Armenian nation has a long and glorious history; that it was one of the earliest to create a civilizatzon and cultured society; that is was the first as a nation to adopt Chri.stianity for all these centuries, through every horror. But even this is not enough to say of the essential greatness of Armenian history and the Armenian character. It is necessary to remember that it was at one period of its history, t,he greatest power among the natzons of Asia, that it governed itself with success and Christianity between Asia and Europe and finally that these traditions of faith and of patriotism have been carned on through m.any centuries and numberless generations while religion and national spirit have not suffered the slightest dimi.nution in either valor or tenacity."

THOMAS POWER O'CONOR (Tay Pay) (1848-1929)
Irish journalist and nationalist leader.


"The Armenians constitute the sole civilizing, the sole humanizing element in Anatolia; peaceful to the degree of self sacrifice; law-abiding to their own undoing and industrious and hopeful under conditions which would appall the majority of mankind. At their best they are the stuff of which heroes and martyrs and moulded."

DR. EMILE DILLON (1854-1933)
British journalist "Armenia, an Appeal"


"The scheme was nothing less than the extermination,of the whole Christian population within the Ottoman frontiers. . . Nothing remained but to use the opportunity and strike a stroke that would never need repetition. "After this", said Talaat Bey, when he gave the final signal, "there will be no Armenian Question for fifty years","

("The Murder of a Nation")
ARNOLD J. TOYNBEE British historiana


"Then, coming to the broad question of Armenia we remember those terrible massacres in 1895 and 1896, but they pale into insignificance before what has been done during this War. The Germans have been guilty of the most gh,astly and unspeakable crimes, but there is no crime so ghastly and able as the wholesale massacre, under circumstances of the greatest possible barbarity and atrocity, of the Armenians themselves."

Sir George Greenwood


"If there is a race which has been closely connected with the Turks by its fidelity, by its services to the country, by the statesmen and functionaries of talent it has furnished, by the intelligence which it has manifested in all domains - commerce, industry, science, and the
arts - it is certainly the Armeman."

General SHERIF PASHA
Turkish exile in Paris.


"Of the 2,000,000 Armenians in Turkey in 1914, one million have been slaughtered and the survivors only 130,000 remain in Turkey and the rest are refugees and exiles. Armenian property losses are valued at over 5,000,000,000 dollars are more than three fourths of the estimated wealth of the Armenian race."

H. ADAM
"Armenia in the World War I"


"Affter the victory of our armies, which are fighting for justice and liberty, the Allies will have great duties to fulfill; and the most sacred of them will be to bestow life again on the martyred nations - on Belgium, on Serbia. They will also insure the safety and the independence of Armenia. Turning to her, they will say, Sister, arise! Suffer no longer! Thou art henceforth free to live in accordance with thy genius and thy faith!"

JACQUES ANATOLE FRANCOIS THIBAULT (ANATOLE FRANCE) (1844-1924)
French poet, critic, novelist and playwright


"Mr. President, April 24, 1965 was the fiftieth anniversary of the commencement of the atrocities against the Armenian people, resultang in the massacre of 1.5 million of this courageous race. Armeians throughout Massachusetts and the Nation have reaffirmed their commitment to the cause of justice and human rights.

"Indeed, the Armenian question is very much alive today. In America, where both the concept and practise ofjustice demand that the slightest trespass of the rights of a single individual receide meticulous attention, certainly the oppression and destruction of a race or nation calls forth our expressed horror and opposition. It becomes a people such as ourselves - dedicated to freedom and individual liberty - not only to remember and reflect upon the past suffering of the Armenians during this prescribed month of mourning, but also to dedicate our efforts and redections to the best manner by which to avoid and eliminate any future repetition of such ignoble action."

Hmmmmm, sort of like YOU are towards US ????

[ali_ihsan21]

Politics and history are two different things. If you have enough money, elector and power in any country you can pass such law not because its true but its profitable.

Did you ever heard about Algeria genocide, whos talking about Native American's genocide and forced deportation or did you ever heard about Hocalı massacre ? It's all about how much you pay to mass media and politicians.

If Armenians would be successful and gain control of eastern part of Turkey everyone would apploud the independence of a Christian minority from an Islamic empire when empire defend its own land for more than a thousand years. How barbaric, Muslims killed Christians.

If you love Armenians that much dont decrease the financial support, those people are in very bad condition.
