I heard on PBS news tonight that he is one of the few Urks who side with the Armenians on the genocide issue or has made comments that would support the Armenian argument ...

Yes. It is sad that we don't have freedom of speach and democracy like your "country" has. I am sure some where in Armenia, a Turkish Armenian citizen is discussing Turkish and Azeri massacres by saying "dirty Armenian blood".

"its funny how the turkish parliament says on tv that they are happy for his win but on the other hand they are furious with the french."

what is the relation of nobel prize and french law.


"Selpak you seem a bit upset "

No i am not upset. Maybe little bit confused. That is certain even a turkish nationalist who has never readed one of his book will be happy for the award in less than 2 years.

I hope there is no jealousy around there.

Re: Turkey's Pamuk wins Nobel literature prize

he never said "genocide happened" and he does not believe in genocide... because he knows what happened; this means genocide never happened...

good night

I'm glad that Rosehips feels that they are the authority on this discussion, but I for one think that they are speaking for themselves and not for Pamuk ...

Here you can evaluate for yourself what Pamuk feels in this documentary ...

Pamuk Documentary

His comments were made to a Swiss newspaper apparently ... "30,000 Kurds and over 1 million Armenians had been killed in Turkey"

So Rose Good morning, as in time to wake up!

Hey Jen!
