Re: Turkish politician fined over genocide denial

One of the sites quotes calls to protest against "Sylovestore Stallone" - I dare say we will hear more about it soon.

Swiss law doesn't prohibit academic research - saying "I can't present any counter facts because it's illegal" is a cop-out.

I'm not Armenian, nor anti Turkish. The facts here speak for themselves - Armenian civilians were murdered on a massive scale, made to leave their homes without providing them any food and shelter (within the Ottoman empire, their "own" country) - thus causing the deaths of many more.

Unfortunately - this wasn't the only genocide in the 20th century, but raising awareness helps pervent similar things now (see Darfur)
