This guy has balls to be truthful like this - he's lucky to still be alive.
Too bad Turkey is going backwards and slowly turning into a hyper nationalistic Islamic theocracy under that lunatic, Adolf Taqiyya Erdogan, who is kicking secular Kemalistic principles with his feet.
We got to work so hardly to forgive Turkish and help them to do the same with their ancestors, bacause Turkey will never accept waht happened. And recognize that take to us 7 provinces or "vilayets". I do not blame to all actuals Turkish people.
The Turkish reputation has been damaged for centuries due to their extremely violent and barbaric suppression of occupied people. They call us Ottoman citizens. We were slaves.
They call us traitors. We were fighting to survive annihilation
Then they have the audacity to call it a political matter.
They would have a place to live back in mongolian grasslands where they came from.

There is nothing great about him. He is damaging our reputation. It is already damaged enough. These matters are political. There are so many incidents similar to the armenian case. You have been armed by british and others. You fought for your liberty and killed people. Turks was very vulerable. If we had lost against greeks and armanians we wouldn't have somewhere to live today. Armanians had been exiled and so many killed on the way. I am sorry for all of them. But this is history now!
No this is not the story, the story will end when we get either Turkish or world recognition of Armenian Genocide. It is easy for Turks to forget it but not for us. Turkish anti-Armenianism still continues today in Turkish government.
Wrong...Wrong.....WRONG! Don't be a fool! #1. You say he is damaging Turkey's reputation? Actually, Turkey's reputation is being (further) damaged by people who DENY or disregard the genocide, and by Turkey's reaction to people like Taner Akcam.
#2. You try to excuse those beasts who organized and committed the genocide. You OBVIOUSLY don't know the whole truth, and you are too blindly and falsely patriotic to care to look for more information coming from "the other side"
Yourt turkish selfishness, and defense of vile barbarism is quite astounding..LOL. Your "concern" is that the occuying turk would have "nowhere to live"!!!!. Boo hoo, poor oppressor..LOLOLOL. Had the Greeks not had the interference of France, Italy, and Russia..Armenians would have a free, united Armenia; and much less Armenians would have been slaughtered. "Exile" by WHO'S choice?!!!!..and with WHAT results?!!!!!. DEATH. History is "TRUTH", not "convenience".
And it is not HISTORY, it is less then 100 years. My GRANDFATHER was victime in the Genocide!! He got live because he expected muslim faith and later when escaped he returnd to Christ. Its like saing Holocoust is History! If we forgot history then HISTORY WILL REPEAT its self. And btw, This land are not for turks. Turks came from central Asia and conquered. JUST LIKE Europe did to AMERICA. Its True fact. Im sorry, but It is true. Except it my friend.
@presidentkasar What reputation are you talking about? You probably mean your reputation in Turkey. As far as you are concerned Turkey and Turkish people do not have good reputation outside of Turkey. I have studied in Europe and every time there was a conversation about Turkey they slapped Turkey and Turkish people about Armenian genocide. Several Germans have apologized to me saying that Germany had a part in Armenian Genocide too.
I have a tremendous respect towards Taner Akcam. He is a real person. He is a very patriotic person,because he wants the best for his country,which is Turkey.I hope everyone sees him this way becasue that is reality.Why do I say he is a very patriotic person?Because he,and many other Turkish people who have said that the Armenian Genocide happened are only real patriotic people because they risk a lot for the common good of their country and their society. Great job Taner Akcam.
I love Taner Akcam, I have one of his books, "A Shameful Act: The Armenian Genocide and the Question of Turkish Responsibility", a great book, and he admits it all happened. And he backs it up well. This one isn't just Turkish propaganda, like most Turkish "historians".
thank you, taner akcam.
the armenian genocide will never be forgotten.

I repeat Hayzavak's words as he posted below:

They call us traitors. We were fighting to survive annihilation
Then they have the audacity to call it a political matter.
