| Turkish soldiers marching Armenian Christians to certain death. |
During and immediately after World War I, in the waning days of the Ottoman Empire, the Turks killed between one million and 1.5 million Armenians – a Christian ethnic minority in an overwhelmingly Muslim region. There is no debate about the murders, or about the methodical way in which the murders were planned and executed by the very top echelons of the Turkish government.

What is debated by most of the world is whether or not the Armenian genocide will be called “genocide.” Unlike Germany – which has fully accepted responsibility for the Holocaust – Turkey has used every diplomatic string it can pull to avoid being labeled a perpetrator of genocide. Especially in the post-World War II world order, with Turkey serving as a so called stable "democratic" bridge between the West and the Muslim world.
Western powers have been unwilling to confront the Turks about this deplorable chapter in their history. Twenty countries -and the UK isn't among them - including Canada, France, Italy, and Russia, have recognized the genocide. Germany, in 2005, said that Turkey "had to take responsibility for the events of that time", but stopped short of using the word “genocide.” Forty-three U.S. states have passed resolutions recognizing the Armenian genocide.

Turkey has resisted any effort to call the genocide what it was. They most frequently make diplomatic and economic threats against countries that dare to even debate the genocide. ( SFI Daily Dispatch)
Getting the Islamist AKP government to own up to Turkey's murderous past is not ever going to happen. They are too busy with their fantasy of rebuilding the Ottoman Empire...only this time it would be with the Arabs. The Islamist dream of another Caliphate has never gone away. Most politicians and folk residing in the West haven't even heard the word Caliphate let alone grasp as to what the Islamist elements in our midst are busying themselves with. Al Qaeda? They're a side show in comparison with what the soft and gullible democratic western nations could expect from a nuclear Islam. Here's a message straight from the Koran.
In
the Koran (60:4) and often quoted by the late Osama bin Laden: “Battle,
animosity and hatred – directed from the Muslim to the Infidel –
is the foundation of our religion.” Or, as Abdullah Azzam, bin
Laden’s mentor, put it: “Glory does not build its lofty edifice
except with skulls. Honor and respect cannot be established except on
a foundation of cripples and corpses. Jihad and the rifle alone, no
negotiations, no conferences and no dialogue.”
