Armenian Genocide
It is know to every one the latest voting of the foreign affairs committee proposing to label the massive killing of Armenians by Turkish troops as genocide. The massive killings took place at the early '20s, when a total population of 1,5 million Armenians slaughtered. By almost all Greeks (and not only) that fact is being considered as the final and decisive whole scale test of slaughtering Greek civilians just only 10 years later.
The dominant argument of Turkish state and people, which easily and awkward adopted by US officials and mainly by the department of state, is that the Ottoman regime was still in power that years, when the state became democratic all the things changed.
On the one hand this is really true. The Ottoman regime was strictly a dictatorial regime (as the most of the regimes around Europe and not only of these years). On the other hand it is not fair to question the real fact of killing 1,5 million people (when the total Armenian nation left after that wasn't over of 2 million).
After all, what should think and say Jews about that? Was really the Nazi regime a democratic one? Or it was as brutal as the Ottoman regime? The Ottomans contrived some of the most tremendous and horrific tortures that mankind ever had. That same tortures were granted to Nazis (it is known that Turks -Turkish Republic better?- were their allies during 2nd world war).
Germany after war accepted the genocide and recognized the Holocaust. Germany therefore is civilized, is promoting and supporting democratic and human values.
Why shouldn't Turkey - that still waiting the acceptance in the EU - admit the horrific actions and murders did during that specific period of its history? If not how should then that nation proceed to a really democratic and liberal course?

The election dispute
Today is the election day for us in Greece, ending over a dispute about the most appropiate palitical party to rule and govern. But as real life proved leaders are making the difference and not parties. Parties are just only a human pattern on which a leader unveils its visions and energy taking nad making effective actions solving controvercial matters and problems.
Unfortunetly in Greece there is a great lack of leaders. They are all pended in selfish and counterproductive thoughts and beliefs. Leaders in real found in tanks, political clubs, schools ect everywhere but Greece.
I wish be mistaken.
