Ankara urges Greece to cancel Pontian Greek Genocide Remembrance Day/PanARMENIAN.Net/ While the chief of Greek and Turkish general staffs exchanged civilities on disputable historical issues, official Ankara urged Greece to cancel Pontian Greek Genocide Remembrance Day. The Turkish Foreign Ministry “accused” Greece of holding events dedicated to the memory of the genocide victims. “This fact hampers the dialog and cooperation between the two countries,” the MFA statement said. Ankara accuses the Greek government of “supporting groundless allegations” and “distorting historical reality.” On its official website, the Turkish Foreign Ministry posted information about the massacre perpetrated by Pontians and Armenians. Greece is accused of discrimination of Ataturk and of links with the Kurdistan Workers’ Party. The Greek opposition is indignant at restrained reaction of Dora Bakoyiannis. Meanwhile, the Greek MFA is pleased with the outcomes of their military official’s visit to the neighbor country and accuses the opposition of instigating nationalism, greek.ru reports. www.panarmenian.net/news/eng/?nid=26247

Ankara accuses the Greek government of “supporting groundless allegations” and “distorting historical reality.” Official order for the destruction of all Hellenes and the abuse of the Hellenic women.Official order for the destruction of all Hellenes and the abuse of the Hellenic women.
"To the Commander of the Central Corps. I call your attention to the following: Death to the Hellenes who lack honour. As soon as you are given the first sign, immediately destroy all. As for whatever regarding the women, don't hesitate. Don't consider neither honour nor friendship when comes the moment of revenge. The commander of the corps Mehmet Azit."
The Hellenic Genocide was the systematic torture, massacre and ethnic cleansing of several millions Hellenes (Greeks) perpetrated by the Turks in Asia Minor, Constantinople (called Istanbul by the Turks), Eastern Thrace, Imvros, Tenedos, Macedonia, Cappadocia and Pontos between the beginning of the 1890's and the end of the 1950's. Millions of children, men and women were tortured and massacred or expelled from their homes only for being Hellenes. In the same places and often at the same time, were also massacred millions of Armenians and Assyrians. The only "sin" of those millions of persons was to live where their ancestors had lived for thousands of years before the Turkish invasions. The Turkish rulers carried out with unimaginable cruelty their plan to create a "Turkey for the Turks." www.hellenicgenocide.org/quotes/q-he-turk-mehmetazit-order.html
