What good can recognition do without complete juustice ??
Do you know that 8 or so Turkish governments in the period of 1919-1923 had "RECOGNIZED" the "hidious crimes of Young Turks" against the Armenians ?
Do you know that "Mustafa Kemal Ataturk" himself had recognized those crimes against Armenians and Christians, and he even promised to compensate the victims when the time is right ?
but afterwards, each and every Turkish government, until this day, had denied the Armenian Genocide ! How can you make sure, that if today's Turkish government recognize the Armenian Genocide, the next government won't deny it all over again ?? Just like what had happen earlier !!
Is the Republic of Turkey responsible ?
Present day Turkey shares responsiblity of the Armenian Genocide, on several levels, for example:
1- The continous denial of the Crime of Genocide against the Armeinans; and as the International Genocide scholars define it to be the "Final Stage" of any Genocide ! And by that posing a continous threat to the Armenian very presence, even in RA.
2- The billions of dollars worth confiscated Armenian properties; of which the Turkish state had benefited in building the republic.
3- The continous distruction of the Armenian cultural and historical and physical presence of the indigenous Armenian population.
Then you said something about "legal" civil court case to obtain the stolen/confiscated properties back !!
Are you talking for real bro ? How do you expect Turkey to give you that kind of justice, when they still call you "Lair" and brazenly accuse your grandfathers of "treachery".
And what about the Armenian orphans, who lost their families, their childhood, their identity and even their sanity ?? Don't you think that those people have Human rights ? For sure no amound of money can compesate their loss... but should that be a reason to let the criminal go free of charge !
The Turkish recognition of the Armenian Genocide is a matter of time bro., Turkey will recognize the Armenian Genocide tomorrow if we give up our rights ... but can you be certain that they will not deny it the day after tomorrow ?? I doubt they won't !!
You are dealing with a bunch of people, who have no hesitation in hiering people to rewrite the History that have been very well documented, and well known by all people in the world to get away from responsibilty ... making a $1 million dollar worth DVD ad. to spread their lies ... they are even liying to their own people ... how can you trust "once again" such people's "Good will" ??!!
We don't need a stupid recognition on paper today, that they will deny torrow !! on the contrary, we should "Lower the Bar" and ask for land and reparation, the recognition will come along without doubt.
The History of our Nation was written in that Land, and the Future of our Nation will be in that Land... We were unjustly driven out of our homeland, and the only justice that will correct that is by returning back to our homeland, that was the everlasting witness to our nation's violent diminish !
We are not begging, we only want our rights !
