My apologies Gavur. Now it must be working.Originally posted by Gavur View Post
Note: I inadvertently made an error to the very top thread's heading as it must be written, "Gunaysu: Turkish Perception of the Recent US Court Ruling".
Ayse Gunaysu is a professional translator, human rights advocate, and feminist. She has been a member of the Committee Against Racism and Discrimination of the Human Rights Association of Turkey (Istanbul branch) since 1995, and was a columnist in a pro-Kurdish daily from 2005-07. Since 2008, she writes a bi-weekly column, titled "Letters from Istanbul," for the Armenia Weekly.Last edited by Anoush; 09-07-2009, 10:07 AM.Comment

Why we need a "Historical Commission"? For turks it is just a way to misguide international community and put under the question historical facts.Originally posted by Yakamoz View PostComment

Historical commision should be included both Armenian and Turkish historians equally , I think.Originally posted by Mukuch View PostComment

Re: Protest U.S. Pressure on Armenia to Accept "Historical Commission"
Under TARC in 2001, the Turks and Armenians agreed to an independent third-party arbitrator to determine genocide; they did. The Turks then withdrew from TARC. Why should Armenians go through that again? We have no basis to trust the Turks and we know the motives well. They want to merely scuttle recognition; it is a public relations stunt.
Another for instance, whe Erdogan proposed the Historical Commision in 2005, he also strenously denied that Turks were even capable of committing genocide, you know, it is ethnically impossible for them to do so right?
It is a farce.General Antranik (1865-1927): “I am not a nationalist. I recognize only one nation, the nation of the oppressed.”Comment

I think if there's going to be a true and a lasting agreement between the 2 country's by the time it gets to the parliaments both sides need to be totally forthcoming and transparent.Time to call a spade, spade; both peoples deserve the truth."All truth passes through three stages:
First, it is ridiculed;
Second, it is violently opposed; and
Third, it is accepted as self-evident."
