/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Making Armenian and world scientists supporters of
their insensible ideas and theories is just an extreme manifestation
of impudence, David Davtyan expert-analyst of ANALITIKA.at.ua center
said. By characterizing Armenians as emigrants, Turkish historian
Kemal Karat contradicts himself, because the only reason that could
force people to quit their homeland was persecution and extermination,
i.e. Genocide.
"It is certainly difficult to discuss anything with a professor who
makes such blunders, admitting in advance that he knows absolutely
nothing about the matter concerned. It’s hard to guess what goal
he pursued, but the result is obvious. Any professor or specialist
respecting himself should first of all realize what he is speaking
about before proposing any theory or paradigm. Wartime resettlement
of 1 million people should not be confused with a Wisconsin-Istanbul
charter flight. Secondly, the professor didn’t take pains to consider
why Armenians had to quit their homeland which had been liberated of
Islamic-Turkish yoke. Thus, Islamic history expert Kemal Kamar admits
that there were mass killings of Armenians during World War I. But
he lacked the courage to voice the matter and thus take sides with
his colleagues recognizing Genocide," Davtyan stressed.
"In 1917, millions of Armenians emigrated from Ottoman Empire together
with the Russian Army," University Professor and Ottoman history
expert Kemal Karpat finds. The fact, according to him, is recognized
by Armenian historians. "The exact number of migrants was calculated
based on the total number of Armenians living in Anatolia," Turkish
Milliyet daily quotes him as saying during a conference dedicated to
1915 events.
