Isn't his camp trumpeting against so-called international double standards ? They should come clean, then.
The scene at Davos was to say the least a rather light price to pay for Operation Cast Lead, although it's regrettable that Peres had to take the brunt of it instead of the actual people responsible.
And I'm sure you can see the difference between contemporary actions and those a century ago committed by entirely different people not even part of the same republic. Hell, one of the reasons why this annoys me is that it makes it harder to press Turkey on the points where it needs pressing today - most notably the Kurds. If you're going to insist to compare this to scenes made about Israel, ask yourself how Israel would react to resolutions in the US Congress about Deir Yassin or some of the other ugly events in the 1948 war.
It's not the same obviously, but it's a better comparison than the Davos thing you're coming up with.
Heh, Erdogan is pissed

Sigh. I wish they would stop trying to pass that.

If Erdogan has no problem making scenes like the one in Davos why should he expect any less ?

How is denying the eponym's genocide improving relations with Armenia?

Modern Armenia looks at it rather differently than the diaspora does.

I imagine modern Armenia is more placating, yes.

Whether motivated by religion or pure nationalism allowing genocide to be denied is a bad precedent.

It's been denied for eighty-five years. It can wait five more.

I agree. They just need to man up and admit it, apologize, and move on. *NM*
