US House votes to recognise Armenian 'genocide'

[Kamil_baku]

it is very funny that not a single new talk about it.

Turkey simply say that lets open our archive and if there is any genocide in our history, we will accept it.
interesting part is Armenian deny to open its archives... if you think there was a genocide, what are you trying to hide then?

 

[Nein]

What about the Kashmiri genocide at the hands of Indian occupational forces?

What about Rohingya genocide?

What about the Palestinians?

I could go on and on.

You really should look up the term " genocide " cause you use it too freely.

Genocide : is intentional action to destroy a people , race.

I am not that familiar with Kashmir but i found no where where it is defined as genocide.

Palestinians ? . In about 70 years of conflict between Israel and Palestinians about 20-30 thousands people died , on both sides. Nothing to be happy about and i hope to see this conflict resolved soon , but to call it Genocide is a stupid, ignorant , malicious exaggeration.

Rwandan genocide - indeed terrible , but two wrongs don't make a right.

" The term has been coined and applied to the Holocaust, the Armenian Genocide and many other mass killings including the genocide of indigenous peoples in the Americas, the Greek genocide, the Assyrian genocide, the Serbian genocide, the Holodomor, the Indonesian genocide,the Guatemalan genocide, the 1971 Bangladesh genocide, the Cambodian genocide, and after 1980 the Bosnian genocide, the Anfal genocide, the Darfur genocide, the Rwandan genocide and the Rohingya genocide. "

Yes , history is not short of terrible massacres ,but in most cases no one denies that they took place ,as Turkey denies the Armenian genocide.

We must recognize them , learn from them , respect the survivors and their descendants , And teach about them in schools so that history does not repeat itself.

It is funny how a bunch of colonizers and genocidal forces group together to point fingers at others. History doesn't lie.

countries that recognize the Armenian genocide :

The US House of Representatives has voted overwhelmingly in favour of recognising the mass killing of Armenians by Ottoman Turks during World War One as "genocide".

The issue is highly sensitive and comes at a time of difficult bilateral relations with Turkey.

Presidential hopeful Joe Biden said the vote honoured the memory of victims.

But Turkey's foreign minister said the vote was in revenge for its military offensive in northern Syria.

The House also voted overwhelmingly to call on President Donald Trump to impose sanctions on Turkey and some of its officials over the offensive.

How did the House vote?
The resolution passed by a vote of 405 to 11.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi joined her colleagues "in solemn remembrance of one of the great atrocities of the 20th Century".

Mr Biden tweeted: "By acknowledging this genocide we honour the memory of its victims and vow: never again."

Chairman of the House's Intelligence Committee, Adam Schiff, tweeted: "The House just voted to recognize the Armenian Genocide - a vote I fought for 19 years to make possible, that tens of thousands of my Armenian American constituents have waited decades to see. We will not be party to genocide denial. We will not be silent. We will never forget.

How has Turkey reacted?
It has strongly condemned the move. Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu called the vote "null and void", linking it to Turkey's military offensive against Kurdish fighters in northern Syria whom it regards as terrorists. Kurdish troops have been allied to the US in fighting the Islamic State (IS) group.

Mr Cavusoglu tweeted: "Those whose projects were frustrated turn to antiquated resolutions. Circles believing that they will take revenge this way are mistaken. This shameful decision of those exploiting history in politics is null and void for our Government and people."

Turkey denies that there was a systematic campaign to slaughter Armenians as an ethnic group during World War One.

What happened?
There is general agreement that hundreds of thousands of Armenians died when the Ottoman Turks deported them en masse from eastern Anatolia to the Syrian desert and elsewhere in 1915-16. They were killed or died from starvation or disease.

The total number of Armenian dead is disputed. Armenians say 1.5 million died. The Republic of Turkey estimates the total to be 300,000. According to the International Association of Genocide Scholars (IAGS), the death toll was "more than a million".

The dispute about whether it was genocide centres on the question of premeditation - the degree to which the killings were orchestrated. Many historians, governments and the Armenian people believe that they were; but a number of scholars question this.

Turkish officials accept that atrocities were committed but argue that there was no systematic attempt to destroy the Christian Armenian people. Turkey says many innocent Muslim Turks also died in the turmoil of war.

Lets be honest its easy to blame Muslims for Al Qaeda and Isis when in reality it was the Barbaric americans that made them in the first place. Bin laden and al baghdadi were two devils molded by the americans.

I dont want to turn this thread into some anti western rant. But westerners and europeans caused two world wars not to mentioned invented the use of industralised mass slaughter with science and technology. I dont get it they did if not worse barbaric things and basically invented modern day genocide while the hurr durr the Turks barbaric monsters. The Arabs are not even spared too.

Armenian genocide was not even the first genocide of the 20th century when the Germans committed a genocide in Namibia and Tanzania.

Nobody cares because the victims are African and Black.

Not not really a hero but he is a martyr because he died fighting to save and help the Muslim Turkic peoples of central asia.

In many ways Enver Pasha is a controversial figure in Turkey.

We use enver pasha just to piss off and trigger armenians. Like all figures in our history they have their good and bad and Enver Pasha incompetence was one of his bad ones.

How noble.


" Enver Pasha was the most powerful figure of the government of the Ottoman Empire. . Along with Talaat and Djemal, he was one of the principal perpetrators of the Armenian Genocide of the Assyrian Genocide and of the Greek Genocide and thus is held responsible for the death of between 800,000 and 1,800,000 Armenians, 300,000 Assyrians and 350,000 Greeks.

My father side has family and relatives that fought in the Caucasus they seen first hand on the destruction armenian terrorists brought to the land of Turkey.

In many yes we did commit atrocites that count as masacres but a genocide it was not. Funny how a israeli fails to grasp this.

So called Armenian genocide was not like the Holocaust as some people make it out to be.

Either do or die situation the Turks themselves took ferocious methods to defend the last remnants of their empire.

Honestly only the Assyrians deserve an apology in this because they were attacked unprovoked. Its all thanks to the Kurds that they had to attack the Assyrians. The Kurds nothing more than created a new headache to the Ottomans by making the Assyrians rise up.

Greeks and Armenians are not so innocent as they claim.
