Armenian Issue - Not Genocide, here's why..

[LeftEyeNine]

Taff, If you are talking about Talat Pasha's documents, I will be proving that they were fake.

If you find time, please dig that stuff for me, I'd love to see what it is.

It wasn't just Talat Pasha, there were a few other important people whose opinions have are recorded.
Ataturk also had some things to say about the actions of his predecessors.

Sorry, I really don't have the time to look for that at the moment. If I happen upon it I'll let you know.

I understand that there is a major international project starting to research the history of the events that you are talking about: previously unavailable records etc. are seeing the light of day. I'll be interested to see what their results are.

Anyway, thanks. If you ever have the time on that, please inform me.

I also appreciate your expectations on new foundings, that really means something for us.

What I just recently heard was that indeed there was gonna be a big academic conference about this issue in Turkey very soon but some Turkish minister stopped it, wonder why....

It was Armenian minister stopping that, not Turkish ones. How come these news arrive there in such a shape ?

By the way, Government archives have been made available to ones that show interest in the issue, while Armenia is still reluctant to open theirs. That is the declaration of our Prime Minister.

What I never understood is why Turkey should apoligise, genocide or not, it was the ottoman empire that did it not current Turkey. But I don't understand the rigidness of Turkey's politicians, the cancelation of the debate was nothing more then intimidation. With remarks like 'The Turkish people are the most innocent people in worlds history, no matter what lies are told', sounds a bit weird considering the evidence of at least mass murder.
