Hrant Dink

[HyeFedayis]

Did you hear about the Hrant Dink song? where Turks praise the Dink murderer ? how many Turks loved it? so many. Armenians are not hateful spreading awareness of a Genocide is not hateful. But Turks always making stuff up is absurd, and especially your denial and that is why only Turks deny this, and that is why you have the turkish penal code to cover up stuff. Please go anywhere in the world see how many times they try to disrupt book readings about the Genocide, or steal and vandalize Armenian Genocide memorials etc. The only thing you guys come up with is "Armenians are terrorist!" you seen the protest in NY? where basically they were like idiots some American mentions terrorist you hear the crowd before that speechless, than the people scream "YA!!! ERMANIAN MURDERERS!" shows how pathetic and low life scums some people are going so far to deny a genocide, or the millions of millions Turkey pays American colleges to shut down anything they have to do with the Armenian Genocide. Taner Ackam a Turk who speaks about the Armenian Genocide. Or Orhan Pamuk who said "one million Armenians were killed in these lands and nobody but me dares to talk about it." Or Elif --afak who was accused of 'insulting Turkishness" for her works. Dude really you guys are patheic so many references about the Genocide. You can just admit it and move on like the Germans did. So do you know about the Hamidian, Adana massacres? that were before the Genocide? so all these people who talk about the Armenian Genocide are liars?

 

"The first upsurge of Armenian nationalism starting in the 1880s had caused both the Ottoman and the Russian Empires to be increasingly suspicious of the loyalty of their Armenian subjects. Thus, in retaliation for an 1894 uprising in the old Armenian heartland of eastern Anatolia, the Ottoman government organized a series of massacres over the course of two years with, according to Armenian sources, hundreds of thousands of Armenian deaths the result."

Do some research look at the NY archives at least.

 

"German soldiers sent to Turkey to reorganise the Ottoman army also witnessed these atrocities. Armin Wegner, an especially courageous German second lieutenant in the retinue of Field Marshal von der Goltz, took a series of photographs of dead and dying Armenian women and children. Other German officers regarded the genocide with more sinister interest. Some of these men, as Armenian scholar Vahakn Dadrian discovered, turn up 26 years later as more senior officers conducting the mass killing of Jews in German-occupied Russia."

Also this:

 

The term “genocide” was coined in 1944 by

Raphael Lemkin, a Jew born in Poland, who

as a law student in his native country was

struck by a paradox on reading about the

trial of Talaat *****’s killer in Berlin.“It is

a crime for Tehlirian to kill a man, but it is

not a crime for his oppressor to kill more

than a million men?” Lemkin is said to have

asked at the time. Although the word itself

did not exist in 1915, most qualified histo-

rians today agree that the events of 1915–20

constituted genocide. In 2003, the Interna-

tional Center for Transitional Justice, a non-

governmental human rights organization

headquartered in New York, commissioned

a legal opinion that concluded that the

killing of Armenians did fit the accepted le-

gal definition of the term.
