Thank you!
IMO, much of the problems modern Turkey has vis-a-vis world opinion is due to the notorious but very effective Soviet Cold War disinformation.
I will omit the Armenian genocide from the charge of disinformation but add, the Ottoman Empire did it (with full knowledge and very possibly help from Germany, some say). Also news article from 1916 posted on Armenian sites accuse the Kurds of the atrocities also.
In fact American Abassador to Turkey at the time Henry Morgenthau: wrote in his book, Undoubtedly religious fanaticism was an impelling motive with the Turkish and Kurdish rabble who slew Armenians as a service to Allah. . . ."
I remember one newspaper account of that era reporting that the Kurdish atrocities against the Armenians were so gross that younger Turks (both enlisted and officers) who witnessed the brutality actually took the Kurdish captive and hanged them.
But nary a word from the Armenian diaspora demanding of our Congress that we (the U.S.) condemn Turkey. I say, go back to Armenia and fight your war against Turkey. We got enough problems.
