Armenian Genocide
Today the Turkish government actively denies the Armenian Genocide and claims that
Armenians were only removed from the eastern "war zone". The Armenian Genocide,
however, occurred all over Anatolia (todays Turkey) and not just in the so-called "war zone".
In recent years, it has faced repeated calls to accept the events as genocide. To date, twenty
countries have officially recognized the events of the period as genocide and most historians
accept this view. (Wikipedia, 2011) (UHRC, 2011) (Armaniapedia, 2011)
Summary

the Turks. About ona and a half million Armenians were killed and others were eliminated
from their historic homeland. Armenian people of the Ottoman Empire were systematically
exterminated and deported by the ,,Young Turk" goverment.
Today Turkish goverment and many others does not even admit that Armenian Genocide
