/PanARMENIAN.Net/ There’s no justification for Erdogan’s comments on
deportation of 100 00 Armenians from Turkey, Head of Islamic Saadet
(Felicity) Party, Numan Kurtulmus said.

As he stated during party congress, both Armenians and Turkish Muslims
suffered great losses as a consequence of world imperialism conspiracy
of 20th century. Saadet leader advised against ascribing the mistakes
of Young Turks to modern Turkey, Timeturk.com reported.

Just weeks after the Swedish Parliament and the U.S. House Foreign
Affairs Committee adopted legislation recognizing the Armenian
Genocide, Turkey’s Prime Minister Erdogan told BBC reporters, that
"There are 170,000 Armenians in my country, of which 70,000 are my
citizens. We’re turning a blind eye to the other 100,000. However,
tomorrow, if it becomes necessary, I would say to those 100,000,
go back to your country. Why? Because they’re not my citizens; I’m
not obliged to keep them in my country."

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
