    The whole era of this topic is full of Turkish Savagery and Crime of GENOCIDE!; will they agree to wave the article 301?

    The date of the meeting is disrespectful to the memory of the victims and the Armenian people. The people who would go to that meeting from the Armenian side, are traitors and deserve no respect from any human being.
    The Turks are Turks.

    We all are manipulated. By Turkey sponsoring some events which trigger responses – no matter positive or negative.

    Do you want us to think that Turks coming to this government sponsored meeting are the ones to open up Turkish mind?

    Don't you see that single Armenian – poor doctoral student, found in the USA is a “hostage” of this summit?

    Don't you understand that this meeting is an empty shell, with a single purpose of claiming to the waiting world the wanted message “Although not ratified, the Protocols are functioning already!”

    When we will stop contributing to the message “The dialog actually is happening”?

    We are manipulated: Turkey is sponsoring some events to trigger responses – no matter positive or negative.

    Should we expect that Turks (and one Armenian) coming to this government sponsored meeting are the ones to open up Turkish mind?

    Should we pass unnoticed that a single Armenian – poor doctoral student, found in the USA is a “hostage” of this summit?

    Should we ignore that this meeting is an empty shell, with a single purpose of claiming to the waiting world the wanted message “Although not ratified, the Protocols are functioning already!”

    When we will stop contributing to the message “The dialog actually is happening”?
