review the passages.
the lie of the “armenian genocide” was first invented in 1915 by the imperialists of england, france, and tsarist russia, who wanted to divide the ottoman empire during the first world war. – turkish politician doug perincek, 2005
today i shall call this armenian genocide. i think that we, the us government, owe you, our fellow citizens, a more straightforward and honest discussion of this problem. i can tell you as a person who has studied this problem—i have no doubts about what happened. i think that it is inappropriate for us, the americans, to play with words in this case. – us ambassador to armenia, john evans, 2005
