I'm Armenian. Ifa turk was doing this to me I'd tell him to get the fuck off his knees and show some dignity. Sure I'll take that apology we've been waiting an entire century for. But now I understand why they don't apologize. They are looking west and going "we don't want any part of that cuckery"

Only apologize for what you yourself do wrong. Never apologize on behalf of anyone else, or if what you did isn't wrong, or if you aren't sorry.

Agreed. We don't actually expect and " I'm on my knees begging you forgive me as I kiss your foot", no just a simple acknowledgement that the events took place would do the trick. They haven't even owned up to it. That would be like the Nazis saying "what Jews?, we never heard of any Jews". Could you imagine anyone trading with germany if they denied the Holocaust? They would get sanctioned.

So any turks reading this I hope you don't feel like YOU committed a crime you have to apologize for, I don't want an apology from someone who's not guilty. Let's just acknowledge it happened so we can close our wounds.

My prayers go out to my Christian brothers and sisters in Amernia. The Vatican make an unforgivable sin in letting the Venetian scums and their attack dogs loose on Constantinople.

Had "brotherhood" meant that much to them, Constantinople would have still stood to this day, and the Muslim horde would be nowhere near Amernia.

I need to read up more on the crusades. I'm curious how the eastern orthodox Christians were getting along with the vatican. I didn't realize there could have been an alliance perhaps. Forgive my ignorance on such far back history.

As far as I know, there had been a lot of tension ever since Rome conspired with the barbarian King Charlemagne to prop up the old corpse of the Western Roman Empire while the real official Roman Empire was still living on in Constantinople. Over the years, Rome became awfully power grabbing until the fall of Constantinople to the Ottoman Turks.

That's my opinion informed with what I digged up over the years regarding Eastern Rome/Constantinople. A lot of information about Constantinople have been intentionally fuzzied by the Vatican as well... so I'd say that look into it and see for yourself.

Exactly. I would welcome a former enemy as a repentant friend. Not as a servile footstool.

We recorded my great-grandmothers stories from the genocide. She died back in the 80s. She experienced some of the most savage things a human can witness. When she was just a kid. A peice of her ear was missing because the girls who had earrings got their lobes cut off as well as their gold stolen.

I'm well aware no turk alive today did anything wrong to my people back then. But when idiot turks (like Cenk Uygur from TYT) become famous while denying a genocide that almost wiped out an entire race of people and even naming his media empire The Young Turks. Imagine if a mainstream news org existed called The Waffen SS
