Robert Fisk on CrossTalk: Turkey! Admit genocide

Resolutions passed by a U.S. Congressional committee and the Swedish Parliament, recognizing the massacre of 1.5 million Armenians by Ottoman Turks in 1915 as genocide, have provoked fury in Turkey, which denies the claim. Why is an event almost a century ago still stirring such deep emotions? That's the topic for the usual robust debate in Crosstalk - with host Peter Lavelle. FULL PROGRAM COMING UP LATER!

@Tigranchius Give me a break, WIKIPEDIA AS A VIABLE SOURCE??? LOL...

Please see armeniangenocidedebate com/archives FOR A LINK TO THE ACTUAL HISTORICAL ARCHIVES OF TURKEY, RUSSIA, BRITAIN, AMERICA PROVING THE ARMENIAN ALLEGATIONS ARE FALSE, THIS IS NO 'WIKIPEDIA', THIS IS NOT A PRO-TURKISH OR PRO-ARMENIAN SITE.

WHY ARE THE ARMENIAN ARCHIVES CLOSED AND TURKEY'S ARE OPEN, WHY HAS ARMENIA REFUSED TURKISH OFFERS TO INVESTIGATE THE MATTER TOGETHER?

@Tigranchius LOL, It's not a blog, it's not Turkish. Armenian archives are not open they are closed google it if you don't know stop talking out of your ass. Go into the photographs section of that site which you think is a blog, and you will see the official Turkish Government's invitation to Armenians to investigate the issue...You can buy as many people and world leaders with your lobbies and money as you want it's not going to change the facts nor will it change what the archives say

@Ekimoglu u fukin irrational prik armenia is economically and politically isolated and turkey threatens them about it and americas strategic friend is turkey so america avoids upsetting them. actual historical archives proves that there right only because turkey found one piece of paper on what a diplomat said dey went on about it still even the herald newspaper has all the clippings a los angeles newspaper has a interview wid ataturk where ataturks condemns it so fuk off

We have been battling with greeks throughout history and they never cried and whined like armenian bitches... these armenians are coward shits who dont deserve to live..

[leaanka]

When we admit that we made genocide... we swear to god we will do it again and again...and lets see who can save these fucking armenian rats from our bloody hands.
