The Sinner Judges

In 2009 Armenia and Turkey signed protocols to normalize the relationship between two countries. Turkey also announced about his new political route, called "0 problems with neighbors." Though, after several months Armenia announced that the result of this political route was "0 neighbors with a lot of problems."
Today the Turkish minister of foreign affairs Ahmet Davutoglu said: "Failure to settle relations with Syria, Israel and Armenia is agreed with aggressive and uncompromising stance of these countries"
This is already annoying. The country that organized the first genocide of the 20th century, announces that the people that suffered from its violence, are aggressive. 
And what should I answer to this puppet, as an Armenian. Mr. Ahmet you can see aggressiveness in all your neighbors' behavior, except your own aggressiveness which is obvious in all layers of your government. And what else did you see in our behavior in 1915, when your "Young Turks" killed 1,500,000 innocent Armenians in the most cruel way. 
The whole world was talking about your racism, but of course you didn't hear anything. 
By your behavior you show that present-day Turkey doesn't differ much from Turkey of 1900s, you just painted it in another color, but the content is the same. 
If today you don't have enough courage  to recognize the crime you made, we, Armenians of all over the world, will make you do it, because you will never be able to "paint" the country which has been painted by blood over 97 years. And always know Mr. Ahmet that during our 4000 years history all  our enemy states just disappeared and become just a part of our history textbook. And this is because history is the strongest judge.  


(CONFIDENTIAL TELEGRAM, AMBASSADOR MORGENTHAU TO SECRETARY OF STATE 

Constantinople, 16 July 1915 

"Deportation of and excesses against peaceful Armenians is increasing and from harrowing reports of eye witnesses it appears that a campaign of race extermination is in progress under a pretext of reprisal against rebellion. Protests as well as threats are unavailing and probably incite the Ottoman government to more drastic measures as they are determined to disclaim responsibility for their absolute disregard of Capitulations and I believe nothing short of actual force which obviously United States are not in a position to exert would adequately meet the situation. Suggest you inform belligerent nations and mission boards of this."
