What's going throught the Turk's head?

Today in World Wars we rapped up the Armanian Genocide. Now once I was told that even to this day the Turks denied any type of genocide, I was totally shocked. I mean a genocide is defined a mass killing of a particular group (armanians) or a particular religion (christian). Now for the Turks to deny this infuriates me to no end. Then I heard even if you speak of it you could end up in jail. So all in all the Turks are bluffing big time ,and they should be known as a country who created a genocide!

  1. The fact that these Ottoman Turks deny the causes of the mass killing of the Armenians infuriates me as well. The fact that a group of people can treat the masscure of half a nation(approximetly 1.5 million Armenians) as if nothing had every happened is absolutly outrageous. The Ottoman Turk's justification for the mass killing is clearly defined as genocide. The United Nations created eight different qualities to characterize a genocide, Clasification, symbolization, dehumanization, organization, polarization, preparation, extermination and denial. Each of these qualities are displayed by the Ottoman Turks throughout the years 1914 to around the early 1920's.
