Armenian Genocide Part 4

documentary on the Armenian Genocide** "In a special Correspondent to coincide with Holocaust memorial week, Fergal Keane investigates how a terrible slaughter, three quarters of a century ago, has returned to haunt the relationship between Turkey and its western allies. For decades the Armenian people have campaigned to have the killings of hundreds of thousands of their forefathers in Ottoman Turkey in 1915 recognised as genocide. But there has been an equally determined campaign by Turkey to deny genocide with threats of reprisals against any country which uses the word to describe the slaughter. Now as the United States steps up its efforts to win Ankara's support in any conflict with Iraq Correspondent reveals new Turkish pressures. Threats to withdraw military bases have forced the American Congress to abandon legislation which would have used the all important term, "genocide". The programme also discloses how President George W Bush and his predecessor Bill Clinton both broke promises to the Armenian community that they would recognise genocide. Talking to Armenian survivors, Turkish officials and key political figures in the United States Correspondent investigates a story of terrible slaughter, political intrigue and a people betrayed." sitruc

@Spartak, How will they pay? Not sure what you mean. If after the historians and the international committee, having searched all the archives and the background of the event of 1915, decide that these killings were to be classified as genocide then as Turks agree to this committee then they will have to accept its findings and be accountable for it. Apart from that if you are still dreaming a greater Armenia established within Anatolia then I would say that is a pipedream. Less hate is good

So these comments are interesting and petty and sad. Could the person who posted this make it so the image isn't a mirror image? The first two parts were better. Thank you.

"Small petty concerns". Did she really say that? Shame on you

[jjonad]

As Turkey offered please set an international historical committee to investigate the events during 1915. All Armenian or Russian ancestry in USA pushing for lies to be accepted as truth. They are trying to succeed where they forefathers failed. Their hatred will never win over.

This is not about loving or hating Turkey. This is about the modern Turkish Republic admitting to the facts. The Armenians were massacred, deported, and persecuted which all amounts to a genocide. Period.
