In my earlier posts, that things are exagerated and blown out of proportion: Sayfo and Assyrian/Armenian/etc "genocides" are not unique, nor is killings or deaths, many births- in life there is both; why should people keep whining about something that happened, when it is happening right before their eyes again- where is their credibility here? Is it hypocrital?
When Armenians kill Turkish citizens in "reprisal" or "revenge" for the "genocide" is it justified? Is holding a grudge over many years and spewing out hatred to descendants of those your fathers fought conducive to any well-being or to the establishment of an integrated or autonomous state?

Obviously, if things could be explained away this easily, or worked out, there would be a different political scene than the one presented to us now; one where people learned to understand each others' difference and that not all Kurds are "bad" and not all Turks are "evil", just like not all Assyrians who "marched people off to die" after a battle were not "evil." What would the Assyrians have to say if people still held a grudge against them thousands of years later? Is it sensible for such a sentiment to last that long? Is it productive?
