Erdogan has been smoking too much of that Turkish hashish.....
And actually stone age Europeans might have arrived here before the Amerindians

Stone-age Europeans 'were the first to set foot on North America'
Stone-age Europeans were the first to set foot on North America, beating American Indians by some 10,000 years, new archaeological evidence suggests.
The country that still denies the Armenian Genocide... What do you expect? Turkish liberals hate him
Just because some 22 nations with obsessive Armenian lobbies say it was genocide doesn't make it true. Most Western historians, scholars, and academics who specialize in Ottoman history, including the most reputable ones, reject the "genocide" label. Regardless of what you think of him, Erdogan in 2005 called for a joint commission of third-party historians to investigate the 1915 events and even offered to pay reparations to Armenians if it were determined to be genocide, and while several international bodies like the EU responded favorably to this gesture, the Armenians declined.
This is because it would require the Armenians to make their historical archives available to independent parties, and the evidence would likely further prove the relocations of 1915-1916 were a security measure in response to a massive Armenian rebellion attempt to forge a homogenous state in Eastern Anatolia through an ethnic and religious cleansing of the majority Muslim population.

the Armenian genocide is not up for debate, or your opinion. it is a matter of historical fact.
I'm really not sure what you think you will accomplish with this nonsense? Do you really think the information and documentation about the genocide, which is WIDELY available - about the BUTCHER of nearly 2 MILLION Armenian Christians by savage Turks will automatically become null and void because of your post? Is the Holocaust also implausible?
maybe Turkey hasn't heard, but their Ottoman empire days are long since gone. they can't even get into the EU. they occupy Northern Cyprus and support filthy terrorists like hamas. no one wants anything to do with Islamic extremists. And that's exactly what Turkey is becoming. good luck with that.

Actually vast majority of scholars and historians says that the Armenian Genocide, or massacre, or whatever you would like to call it took place. Indeed, there are plenty of evidence, images, journalists, and eye witnesses back then who reported about it. Same evidence as the holocaust basically. Of course Turkish Muslims denies it, but the Kurds recognized. Indeed Turkey has apologized, but not officially recognized. United Nation and many world organizations recognizes the genocide.

I guess we now know why RecentlyMoved keeps starting anti-Turkish threads.
Now it's 2 million? There are Armenian sources stating there weren't even 2 million Armenians living in the Ottoman Empire at the time.
No one is more qualified to discuss Middle Eastern history than Bernard Lewis. He gives his rebuttal to comparisons between the events of 1915-1916 and the Jewish Holocaust.
good grief. a youtube video will surely put into question documented historical facts.
as for my anti Turkey posts - it's called news. maybe someone should tell them to start acting like civilized humans
