JTW Editorial - The Armenian Issue: Inventing a Past

"The Armenian Issue: Inventing a Past
Dr. Sedat LACINER
Armenians claim that The Ottomans consciously and systematically killed the Armenian citizens in 1915 and afterwards. This claim had been denominated as �massacre� until the end of the World War II, it has been denominated as �genocide� since 1965. In this respect, the Jewish example has a significant role in skillfully transforming to be �genocide victim� into political and monetary earnings. As it is known that, as the Jewish people have accepted that, the Jews who were died in the World War II left a loaded indemnity and a state to their sons and grandchildren. The more important than that, grievance also has prepared ground for an important esteem in the world. So, this is the most important benefit which charmed the Armenians."
