...the many sites and articles refuting the Armenian claims I came across one whose headline grabbed my attention...it said "Armenian Genocide no issue for Historians but Legal Experts"...I didnīt read further because it sounded so silly in passing but later I thought about it...

What this article is doing is accepting that a genocide took place. no questions asked or needed to be asked...all we need do is proceed to trial.

...here we have an alleged incident that happened in history...how can anyone deny that? I mean that it happened in HISTORY...in Time and Place? And yet we are not to put actual historians, whose field is HISTORY to determine, in their skilled, trained and scholalrly way, what the historical facts are...no, weīre simply to accept the charges and then bring in the judge and next the executioner. Why bother getting the HISTORICAL facts right?

..naturally those who make these claims of genocide do not WANT real historians snooping around...they just want the trial to begin.

Itīs very like saying we donīt need police or detectives or crime labs or crime scene investigators...that an allegation of murder, or worse, against an entire people needs no expert examination into the facts and allegations...all we need know is that the DA has charged someone of a crime and that charge alone should be enough for the trial to begin...and the sentence will follow "naturally".
