Turks characteristically shun propaganda, and have chosen not to dwell on the tragedies of the past, forging ahead to build upon brotherhood — not hate. This is why the horrifying massacres committed upon the Turks, Kurds and other Ottoman Muslims by Armenians have seldom been heard. When such reports are heard, Westerners can be callously dismissive... Turkish lives are apparently as meaningless to them as Indian lives were to most early Americans.It's amazing that whenever the "Armenian Genocide" is referred to in Western media, journalists seem to fall all over themselves in presenting the perspective totally from the Armenian propaganda machinery. Whenever there is an attempt to present "the other side," the passage is usually preceded by "The Turkish Government claims..."

If someone is claiming, insisting on something, he has to proove it first.
Defense or deny or apologise...for what?

Which government, which history claims that tall tale? Turkish documents are open for everybody. But none of Us or French or Armeinan acepted to come and discuss on these documents. THEY only rejected the Ottoman documents, photos, arguments.

If someone is claiming, he must proove it. And then he can ask the reasons of denial.

Like any one-sided claim, there can be no argument on the subject. If you deny or attempt to revise accepted truths of any genocide then you are labelled a criminal. The same can be said about the Holocaust and the Jews. If you try to debate that less than six million Jews died, you are a criminal. If you try to debate for an increase in the number of Jews that died, then you are a hero. While no one should deny outright that certain events did not occur, because there is evidence that supports these genocides, at the same time we must be able to question history, otherwise we will never learn from the lessons of the past.
