Could I have a source regarding these irregulars? The whole initiative, the funding and much of the man power came directly from the central administration.

"Where scholars deny genocide in the face of decisive evidence ... they contribute to false consciousness that can have the most dire reverbrations. Their message, in effect, is ... mass murder requires no confrontation, no reflection, but should be ignored, glossed over"

The quoted is very spot on.
I'm yet to see any argument to why the armenian genocide isnt a genocide, and thankfully most scholars recognise it as a genocide both historians and lawyers.
tehcir law, deportations, death marches and extermination camps. But not a genocide? please..
Genocide is "the deliberate and systematic destruction, in whole or in part, of an ethnic, racial, religious, or national group

How is it noteworthy when the Turks opted to exterminate every able bodied male regardless of their involvement in a rebellion?

And most importantly has fuck all to do with who is carrying it out, irregular or not. Treq is trying to make it look like bands of Turkish criminals comprised 90% of the staffs at the 25 bonzentration bamps.

Really? So you mean you thought I was seriously apologising for the Viking colonisation of America?
I don't talk about the Holocaust I talk about the systematic murder and enslavement of millions of people, be they jews, serbs,poles or otherwise.
The Genocide in Europe was a genocide of the non-Aryan
The Ottomans essentially had the same idea

Oh ok, the important thing is to distinguish
- Your still guilty you should all die
from
- Your still guilty because you don't even have the decency to say sorry.
I mean for Christs sake the Queen of England laying a wreath to Irish war dead did more than 15 years of peace efforts. 'We're sorry' it's not hard, bloody turks.

I just happen to be rereading "The Ottoman Centuries" by Lord Kinross... I flipped to the section about the Armenian genocide of 1915... Here is an excerpt for what it's worth:
"The British failure at Gallipoli gave a breathing space to the Young Turk triumvirate, leaving it free to pursue, without external interference, a premeditated internal policy for the final elimination ofof the Armenian race. Their proximity to the Russians on the Caucasus front furnished a convenient pretext for their persecution, on a scale far exceeding the atrocities of Abdul Hamid (in the late 19th century -JV), through the deportation and massacre of one million Armenians, more than half of whom perished."
This book was first released in 1977.

With the way the country is going right now, more Intellectuals are coming out and on the open with that view. The "Hrant Dink" case only fueled it more. Only recently Kurds were given permission to speak their language, more liberties are being given and more people are coming out and saying what they really think. I'm sure an apology will come soon eough but only through time, especially with the 100th anniversary coming soon.
Sources are not cited per passage as you would normally see in a history book written today. But I found a link to the bibliography.

I should note that he goes into much more detail about the massacres committed by Abdul Hamid II in the 19th century. But the book is a history of the Ottoman Empire, and he considered the empire ended when the Young Turks deposed Abdul Hamid II in 1909. He rather briefly sums up the Turkish involvement in the First World War and doesn't say much more than I posted about the massacres of 1915.
