Re: Armenian-Turkish Relations
I think what the author meant was that Ataturk continued the Genocide against the Christians even after when the Young Turks were starting to lose power...
Professor Israel Charney`s biography:
Are you also going to claim that Israel W. Charny is also "Anti-Turkish"?

Ottoman Genocide against Christian Minorities: General Comments and Sources
"It is believed that in Turkey between 1913 and 1922, under the successive regimes of the Young Turks and of Mustafa Kemal (Ataturk) , more than 3.5 million Armenian, Assyrian and Greek Christians were massacred in a state-organized and state-sponsored campaign of destruction and genocide, aiming at wiping out from the emerging Turkish Republic its native Christian populations. This Christian Holocaust is viewed as the precursor to the Je_wish Holocaust in WWII. To this day, the Turkish government ostensibly denies having committed this genocide."
