    TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN :

    TODAY AFTER I FOUND OUT THAT THE NEWS BROADCASTED ABOUT THE ARMENIAN GENOCIDED REALLY DISGUSTED ME. I COULDNT FIGURE IT OUT WHY THE FRENCH POLITICIANS WERE DEALING WITH ISSUES NOT CONCERNING THIER OWN COUNTRY.

    AS I SAID BEFORE THAT WE SHOULD LEAVE THE WORLD HISTORY TO THE HISTORIANS TO DISCOVER AND HOLD. IF YOU WERE TO BELIEVE THAT THE ARMENIAN GOVERNMENT WERE TO RECOGNIZE THE TURKISH COUNTRY AS PERFORMING THE ACTS OF A GENOCIDE; WHY DO YOU THINK THEY DIDNT RECOGNIZE IT IN THEIR OWN COUNTRY?

    WHY ARE THE FRENCH GOVERNMENT INVOLVING THEMSELVES WITH SOMETHING THAT MIGHT AS WELL NOT BE TRUE?

    IF THE FRENCH BELIEVE THAT LIBERALISM IS ONE OF THEIR MAIN WAYS OF LIFE IN ADDITION TO JUSTICE. THEN WHY HAVENT THEY SEEKED THE TRUTH ABOUT ARMENIAN GENOCIDE AND RECOGNIZING THAT THE EVENT NEVER OCCURED AND THE GENOCIDE ONLY HAPPENED TO THE TURKISH PEOPLE WITH FACTS AND PROOF SHOWING THIS EVENTS OCCURED TO THEM. THE ONLY WAY I SEE THAT THIS ISSUE WOULD BE SOLVED IS THAT THE ARMENIAN GOVERNMENT ALONG WITH THEIR NATIONAL HISTORIANS PROVIDE EVIDENCE SHOWING THAT THESE ALLIGATIONS OCCURED. IN RETURN THE TURKISH GOVERNMENT ALONG WITH THEIR PROOF AND HISTORIANS ALL SIT AND RESOLVE THIS ISSUE.

    THE ARMENIAN GOVERNMENT KNOW THAT THEY HAVE THE FRENCH TO BACK THEM UP IN ANY EVENT THAT THEY NEED THEM. THEREFORE THEY CHOOSE TO RATHER HIDE FROM THE TRUTH THAN RESOLVE AND PUT AWAY THIS ISSUE ONCE FOR ALL.

    THE FRENCH GOVERNMENT HAVING THERE INVOLVEMENT IN THIS MATTER DOES NOT EVEN PERTAIN THEM.
    IS THIS A COVER UP FOR THEIR OWN GUILT? I SEE THE FRENCH AS BEING A COUNTRY OF FOOLS AND CAN BE BOUGHT OUT BY ANYONE. THIS ISSUE IS NOT EVEN A PROBLEM PERTAING TO THE FRENCH GOVERNMENT AND PEOPLE. THIS PROBLEM SHOULD ONLY BE RESOLVED BETWEENT THE TURKS AND ARMENIAN PEOPLES LIKE BROTHERS/ RELATED TO EACH OTHERS OR LIKE JUST GOOD ALL NEIGHBOURS LIKE SHOULD.

    LIKE I SAID BEFORE FRENCH PEOPLES TO MIND YOUR OWN PROBLEMS OF GENOCIDES AND SHOULD GIVE THE NECESSARY REPARATIONS TO THE PEOPLE YOU AND YOUR FORE-FATHERS BUTHCERED.
    THAT IS YOUR HISTORY AND WHOLE WORLD KNOW IS THE TRUTH !!!!
    YOU CANNOT HIDE. YOU ARE NEXT IN LINE ABOUT THIS GENOCIDES OF THE WORLD.

    Oh my Gawd!

    Who is this deranged and confused “Yurdakul CEKER “YURDATURK””???

    Dude, get a spell checker at the very least. And stop typing IN ALL CAPS it means that you are shouting.

    Is your statement of “I SEE THE FRENCH AS BEING A COUNTRY OF FOOLS AND CAN BE BOUGHT OUT BY ANYONE.” even remotely compatible with your other contradictory “I LOVE YOU ALL AND BELIEVE IN EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU FROM THIS MOMENT AND ON” and “SO LET’S ALL OF US FROM THIS MOMENT AND ON FOLLOW OUR HEARTS AND DO THE RIGHT THINGS EVERYWHERE. LETS ALL LIVE IN PEACE AND HARMONY IN THIS WORLD” comments?

    You promote Islam as a religion of peace. But yet you insult a whole nation of Frenchmen in the same SHOUTING diatribe of yours?

    Sorry there guy, but you sound like you have some serious mental instabilities along with a very poor education.

    How about leaving intelligent discussions to those with capable minds?

    Please seek help!

    Wow the “CAPS” guy amazes me. I wonder, did he even read a book or an article about his country’s ottoman past? Do you know any nation in history that was happy under occupation of any empire? Why should european and middle eastern countries be happy with ottoman occupation?

    Christian population in ottoman empire was subject of double or triple taxation. They were some type of subhumans for the muslims. Their cases were lost in ottoman courts because christian witnesses were considered “unreliable”. When the christian was killed by muslim the court sentence was light for him or he was mercyed by court but in vice versa cases the christian was punished mercylessly.

    What was so exciting in ottoman past? The hyenous massacre of 1.5 Christian Armenians and the massacre of other christians (Greeks, Assyrians)?

    The current republic of Turkey condemns France because of freedom of speech violation but it is still denying the genocide and prohibits anyone to speak about it by law! If people continue to publish or speak about that then the ultra nationalists of Turkey kill them. This was the case of Hrant Dink.

    The justice must prevail. You can’t constantly hide or run away from genocide. You must stay and face it as Germans did.

    YURDATURK, my friend

    There is a big difference in killing soldiers in a war and killing women, children, and the elderly of a population you are charged with protecting. Any nation, state, group or individual who denies what happened to the Armenians as genocide is guilty of the same horrendous crime and at one time or another whether you call him Allah or God, these people or nations or groups will be punished. I would suggest you venture outside of Turkish state sponsored history and read the real thing in the rest of the world.

    Good luck in your hunt for your true self.

    Hey Turk,
    The Armenian Genocide is an undeniable fact. Just ask the International Association of Genocide Scholars. Instead of asking to look at peoples hearts look at your hands and see the blood stain of Armenian Men Women and Children. Maybe read a history book not written by your genocide perpetrators. The world isn’t ignorant of this fact including France and 20 plus other countries that officially recognize THE TRUTH. It is only a matter of time before the rest of the world does.
    A decendant of the Armenian Genocide!

    Unfortunately, as Turkish people, we can not offend the motherland. Turkish people are good people. We have a rotten history of changing truth. If laws would allow freedom of speech we can read and write freely. We will go to jail because if we say something that insults are country we can go to jail.

    Ataturk made many great changes in our land but he covered up many other things as well. One of them being the topic of your question.

    Imagine you grow up all your life and know Turkish friends and family in this day and age and someone tells you that our people comitted mass murder (genocide)! What a shock to the system. You will run down the street and ask your father and grandfather, “what did you do”. Why would he want to admit it to you. Like Ataturk, our grandfather and fathers washed their hands clean of the blood as Ataturk gave them to chance to start all over again. We did not have to worry about that, it was taken care of and done with. Now we will rewrite what we need. Ataturk said to take what you need from history. That is what he did. School books do not talk about genocide.

    To this day the word Armenian is considered to be Back Stabber in Turkey. One paragraph in books said this for decades as to the Armenians of 1915. Nothing more or less. To call someone Armenian in Turkey is worse then calling someone a dog to this day.

    Can you see that is what you are dealing with. We just got hit with a big stick in the stomach. How can we believe this is true.

    Logically I have to look at many other things in the world.
    I believe the reality is that to be patriotic and believe the genocide took place is easy but the society that Turkish people live in does not allow it. There are too many laws.
    Imagine this…the journalist and intellectuals of Turkey always say “the supposed genocide” when dealing with this issue. Why? Because if they said it any other way they will go to jail or get hunt down by the Grey Wolves. When the media in Turkey is breathing this atmosphere created laws that allow them not to speak freely what will happen to the masses. Couple all this with what I said earlier about Ataturk changing how life in Turkey was changed by him then you got a boiling pot of not NON BELIEVERS but Masses that just do not know.

    To answer your question, the laws of the land must change as far as freedom of speech AND freedom of thought. At that point we can become patriotic. For Turkish people to be true Turkish patriots, we must be able to speak freely AND think freely. We can not think if we have someone, big brother (government laws, extremist), breathing down your back saying “if you write this you will be killed”. So, it is a problem in society that has been created.

    Turkis people can not be patriotic and say these things you say. If the laws change in our country, it is the duty of Turkish people to do so and be patriotic. It is the duty to question our fathers and their fathers acts. It is the duty and right of all Turks to freely think for once and for all. It would then be UNpatriotic to do otherwise.
