The Turkish Daily News published on February 9 an article of the
famous Turkish journalist Mehmed Ali Birand on the Turkish policy on
the Armenian Genocide of 1915. The article is entitled â~@~We have
already missed the train.â~@~]
Birand states that Armenians were successful in proving to the
international community, and especially the West their viewpoint on
the genocide.
â~@~Armenians have been pursuing their goal consistently for 75
years. They have published thousands of books and articles. They have
organized faculties at universities and convinced the international
community. And eventually they reached an international recognition,
despite the fact their information was not sufficient and did not
reflect the reality,â~@~] writes the Turkish journalist.
In this respect, Birand outlines a new way for the Turkish policy. He
calls on the government to set up a new policy chapter, acting in
accordance with todayâ~@~Ys situation and minimizing losses.
As a matter of fact, Turks do not or do not want to understand that
the recognition of the Armenian Genocide took place not so much due
to the work of Armenians, but due that the civilized world denounced
the crime not only to Armenians but to the whole humanity.
And so Turks should think not about missing a train but about jumping
off the deception train.
