  • What can be done to decrease hate of Armenians towards Turks

    We cannot change the past but the future. What can we do to decrease hate and anger of the Armenians towards Turks?

    So there is no hate of Turks towards Armenians to address? It's another Turkish Taboo (along with Genocide, Kurdish Issue) that Armenians have an inherent hatred for Turks...where did you learn that by the way?

    I for one don't hate Turks, and use every opportunity possible to build bridges with Turks I encounter. So mark one more Armenian off your list of those who hate Turks...

      Ridiculous question and very strange name choice. Did you choose that deliberately?

      More later.....

        of course douglas doesnt mean that all the armenians hate turks but he is right on that issue. It can not be said that everything is normal between armenians and turks. Hovik does not hate but surely many armenians hate turks also some turks hate armenians. Thus I agree with douglas on this issue. Ways to decrease tensions should and must be searched.

          Ok lets say Armenians like Turks but Turkey. You dont like Turkey, confess please.
          If Turkey pays USD 3.000.00 to every Armenian in the world (ofcourse to those who can prove that their grand parents were murdered in 1915), can something change? Anger of the Armenians does it decrease? I dont think so..

            If you really want to know how to change Armenian perspective, here are some ideas for you:

            1. Stop denying what really happened to our ancestors;
            2. Stop teaching your children that Armenians were traitors that "stabbed your ancestors in the back";
            3. Stop destroying the ancient monuments that we built on soil that you now own;
            4. Stop blocking the borders between you and your neighbor;
            5. Stop coming to our websites and telling us that we're lying, and that everyone who says it was a Genocide is a propogandist;
            6. Stop having such closed minds on this issue;
            7. Approach us with some humanity rather than cynicism and conspiracy theories.

              1-Needs negotiations
              2-This is possible.
              3- It is not a policy, believe me. We are not well-educated people. Do you know we are also destroying our ottoman monuments much more than those of Armenians. Here, In Turkey, we destroy everything just for money. We are destroying our own culture,our own history, our forests, our lakes, our birds.
              4-You are right, it is useless. Our great politicians believe that if blokage continues Armenia gives up AG claim. It is obviously impossible. Turkey should lift embargo and provide financial aid to Armenia to show its good faith as great state.
              5-This is what we believe..
              6-How? give example
              7-This is possible.

              Meanwhile, there is a state called Armenia. If Armenians like their country so much, why dont they leave US, UK and France and go there to live? It is a very poor country First make Armenia as rich as Germany and then claim west Armenia..
              You didnot mention about reperations?

                Very easy for a Turk to say. Most Armenians (not me) have lived in the diaspora for 3 generations, because our ancestors were kicked out of their homes and sent packing into the desert. Now, you are preaching to us about going back to Armenia? Who do you think is sustaining Armenia right now against a double blockade? Armenia is no poorer than Turkey, even though it has only been independent for 15 years. In 15 years, Armenia will be a much richer country per capita than any of its neighbors. We will make sure of that, in our own way. But thank you for the advice.

                About reparations, I think the items I listed are a good first step. With those accomplished, I think most of the hatred will be gone. Then, of course, Turkey will have to pay those families from whom it has stolen so much.

                  3.000.00 to every Armenian in the world

                  So is that what a human life is worth in turkey?

                  Insulting us sure won't help your case. Now you say Armenians should go back to Armenia, but you turks hold ninety percent of the land that those Armenians came from. Why should an Armenian go to Yerevan for example when their family originally came from and still owns property in Van? Again, a turk being totally ridiculous.

                    Because

                    Because I am talking about what it possible for the time being. Nothing more. I am realistic.
                    Noone can have everything he wants. If it were as easy as you are talking about, almost every country in the world should claim land from another one.
                    Be realistic.

                    How much do you want instead of 3.000.000,-?
                    In Turkey it is much less, frankly.
