Turkey's denial of Genocide DVD sold with Time magazine

[imported_crazy]

This may have already been posted, if yes, please tell me I may have missed that out on this forum.

You all may have heard about the "famous" dvd from the Turkish Chamber of Commerce distributed with Time magazine of June 6, 2005, hiding within various clips promoting tourisme in Turkey, a documentary denying the armenian genocide.

Alot of websites dedicated subjects and reactions about this issue, I just wanted to get a feedback from the users of this forum about this so called documentary and in your opinions, what should be the best way for TIme magazine to recover this mistake.

After this issue, I realised a lack of harmonisation between the various diasporan communities, at least in europe. In my opinion, there should have been a consensual reaction and not just sporadically according to each communities will, and this for me was very dissappointing and to some extent may contribute to the lack of lobbying for the recognition of the armenian genocide by the international community as a whole.

I don't see what the problem is? It's a free world and theres always 2 different stories to events and people have the right to know both...

So what exactly is it that Armenians are opposing to?

Obviously there are 2 different stories or otherwise the so called Armenian genocide would have been internationally recognized like the Holocaust. Don't you think?

Obviously there are no two sides, or else Turkey and it's buddy Azerbaijan wouldn't be the only countries denying it.

If it is their right to publish genocide denial propaganda, then it is our right to tell them they are full of xxxx.

It may surprise you to know that there are holocaust deniers. The president of Iran just denied the Jewish holocaust this week. It is our duty to eliminate any doubt or ambiguity on the Armenian Genocide, and to eliminate misinformation and conspiracy theories that only have an ulterior political purpose. If people have a right to be ignorant, I will fight to the death to expose the truth.

Actually there is no international recognition of a so called genocide only local recognitions and they have no legal value.

First of all there must be international recognition of the so called genocide for there even to be denial of genocide. Anyhow ofcourse Armenians are free to tell anyonw what they want just as Armenians have been telling bs for the last 90 years. Telling everyone what the big bad Turks did but never mentioning that Armenians betrayed there country(at the time) and sided with the Russians to massacre Muslims of East Anatolia during the Russian invasion of East Anatolia during WW1.

The entire world laughed at the Iranian presidents statement, why? Cause there is no doubt that the Holocaust happened and there millions of evidence backing the Holocaust up while it's been 90 years and there is no evidence of the so called Armenian genocide. Deportation isn't genocide, too bad some people are too thick to see that...

Describe "International recognition" for me.

Oh by the way, did you know Lithuania the other day officially recognized the genocide and condemned Turkey? They're a member of EU. Sucks to be you.
