Hi Ianus

In the UN definition of what is really a Genocide there is an article where groups, because of religion or color or ethnic background, are not just killed but also expelled and their children and at times women abducted in the group that is committing such crimes is regarded as a genocide

And in 1915 the population of Turkey was about 15M and 1.3M Armenians were killed and 2M Greeks were expelled from Asia Minor and 1M killed and let us say 0.5M Assyrians were killed so if you add this up you can see that the Christian population in 1915 was, and is now missing, is almost 5M! Or 33% of the popualtion is missing!

So if the popualtion of Turkey is now about 70M then we would have expected to see around 25M non Muslims in Turkey! What a crime!

Turkey is a despicable place

What a horrible crime and if this is not the crime of Genocide then I have no clue what it is
