  • Not a Turk but I am an historian. Armenian genocide from a history point of view is not a fact. It does not matter how many times you say it. I am a proud Italian and sometimes people hate us because of ROME. Such ridiculous thing to do. Then you should hate French, British, Dutch, Japansese, Germans the most in the world. They only brought femine, war and genocide back in the days. Now they are all civilised.

    • I can see how far you are from being a historian. You better quit your job and go eat your spaghetti.

  • Mr. Ibanez, a proverb is a short, traditional saying that expresses some obvious truth or familiar experience; adage; maxim! You don’t need to be an historian to understand proverbs!
