<<From EMC brd: I read at least several dozen first hand accounts of the 1917 massacre that were lodged for safekeeping in a lawyers office. So I really *do* know what *some* Turks did *then*. That does not justify your attitude, which is inherently unjust.>>
Mehitabel, I respect your well informed opinion. I. too, have read such documents. Do not despise me. I havent thought about this subject in years. But the call of blood is too strong. I only ask that you consider how you might feel if it had been your parents who had been selected to be killed. (My father was 14 when his dad was shot)
Hitler said, to rationalize the Holocaust, "Who remembers the Armenians?'

Serbia is a criminal nation; Germany was (and in my view still is) a criminal nation and so is Turkey. So too Rwanda, or at least the Hutu oligarchs who killed more Tutsi's per day for a while there than the Krauts did Jews in the 40's.
I am very much attuned to human suffering and I am always against it.
But I can not have compassion for the Turks. I am sorry.
