Historical revisionism[edit]
"In the 1910s and 1920s, the Armenian, Greek, and Assyrian genocides were perpetrated by the Ottoman Empire and its successor state, the Republic of Turkey."
Can someone please tell me why this sentence is persistently not deleted? How come the Republic of Turkey is responsible when all three events mentioned took place before the establishment of the Republic of Turkey? If this is not historical revisionism, what is? How can a country founded in 1923 be the perpetrator of events that ended before 1923? Do you think modern Germany is the perpetrator of the Holocaust? Or is the Russian Federation the perpetrator of the Katyn Forest massacre? By this logic, Modern Germany is the perpetrator of the holocaust, while the Russian Federation carried out the Katyn massacre. Doesn't that sound ridiculous? I demand that these ridiculous and historical revisionist statements I mentioned be removed. Apparently some fanatic greek far-right extremists are doing historical revisionism and Wikipedia admins are supporting it. If it is not deleted, I will delete it.

- Those are well documented events, this site is not your blog where you can spread your panturk nonsenses. Also, "If it is not deleted, I will delete it" I strongly suggest you to avoid such things, as this is a community encyclopedia that works with consensus. Thank you.---Wikaviani (talk) (contribs) 21:23, 17 October 2023 (UTC)
- I'm not knowledgeable about this—this user's question makes sense to me. How can the successor state of one state be responsible for something that the predecessor state did before the successor was established? @Wikaviani Zanahary (talk) 00:23, 5 December 2023 (UTC)
- Just take the time to read what the sources say, on Wikipedia we go by what reliable sources say, our opinion, as editors, is irrelevant.---Wikaviani (talk) (contribs) 10:39, 5 December 2023 (UTC)

Persecution of Palestinian Christians in Gaza genocide[edit]
Since 7 October 2023 conflict, the Christian community in Gaza has been suffering immense losses. The world'third oldest known church has been bombed by Israeli army . A mother and with her daughter that were sheltering in a church were shot dead by Israeli army snipers. The Pope has made a public speech condemning these atrocities and agreed that they appear to be terrorist acts carries put by the current occupation i.e. Israel. The Palestinian Christian Orthodox community leaders have made official calls on media platforms pledging for worldwide support and prayers in the wake of the recent shooting and arrests in West Banks as well as the ongoing en masse indiscriminate killing of over 20 thousand civillians in Gaza many of them being children and infants ,women and elderly.The exact number of Christians killed in Gaza is unknown as the international call for immediate ceasefire continues. At this moment in time USA has been the only nation voting against ceasefire at the United Nations urgent assembly. As the Christmas approached many were hoping that this would be the moment the ceasefire would come into place. Unfortunately it hasn't been the case. On Christmas Day ,speaking from the loggia of St. Peter's Basilica to the throngs of people below, Francis said he grieved the "abominable attack" of Hamas against southern Israel on Oct. 7 and called for the release of hostages. And he begged for an end to Israel's military campaign in Gaza and the "appalling harvest of innocent civilians" as he called for humanitarian aid to reach those in need. Francis devoted his Christmas Day blessing to a call for peace in the world, noting that the biblical story of the birth of Christ in Bethlehem sent a message of peace. But he said that Bethlehem "is a place of sorrow and silence" this year. 86.6.205.173 (talk) 23:12, 29 December 2023 (UTC)
