Scholars indicate Armenian Genocide
In an age of Bush-ite lies and spin people naturally get cycnical about the "truth". 
 
Rule of thumb - always remain sensibly sceptical but on matters of great import such as genocide, climate change, threats to society etc turn to the world's most outstanding scholars. 
 
Thus the Nobel Prize Committee in its recent award to the IPCC and Al Gore agreed with the greatest scientists in America and the world, the premier scientifc organizations in America and the World etc and IGNORED the dishonest, corrupt, climate criminal lying of the Bush-ite flat-earther climate change deniers. 
 
Ditto in relation to the Armenian Genocide - world's leading Genocide scholars recognize the Armenian Holocaust as an Armenian Genocide involving 1.5 million people murdered out of a population of 2.1 million - but this is denied by Genocide Committers and Deniers Turkey, Israel and Bush US. 
 
The Armenian Holocaust (1.5 million victims) is unequivocally described as the Armenian Genocide by top world genocide authorities e.g. Australian genocide scholar Professor Colin Tatz who headed up a Centre for Comparative Genocide Studies at Sydney’s Macquarie University indictaes 12.5 million deaths and is unequivocal in his condemnation of Turkish denial of the Armenian Genocide (see:  
link ), QUOTE: "The Turkish denial [of the Armenian Genocide] is probably the foremost example of historical perversion. With a mix of academic sophistication and diplomatic thuggery -- of which we at Macquarie University have been targets -- the Turks have put both memory and history into reverse gear."  
 
The classic book on genocide by Frank Chalk. and Kurt Jonassohn (1990), The History and Sociology of Genocide. Analyses and Case Studies (Yale University Press, New Haven). The authors indicate 1.5 million deaths and state unequivocally in their preface to the chapter of the Armenian Genocide that, QUOTE :“The genocide of the Armenians in 1915 was the first of the modern ideologically-motivated genocides”.
