Islamophobia. This Time in France.
The adoption of the law criminalizing the denial of the so-called “Armenian Genocide” is a sign of Islamophobia in France, Secretary General of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu told Trend on Tuesday. “This law contradicts three fundamental principles of democracy—equality, freedom and brotherhood. It is a sign of growing Islamophobia,” Ihsanoglu said. http://en.trend.az/regions/met/turkey/1983642.html

Prominent philosopher Slavoj Zizek advised Turkey to “apologize for the horrible things happened in 1915” in an ironic way by saying “this was part of us becoming a modern European nation state.” “Why is it wrong for Turkey to apologize but also put the blame on Europe? By apologizing, do not fall into the trap of apologizing to Europe. These were wild times. What were the Western powers doing at the same time in their colonies?” said Zizek in an interview with daily Hürriyet yesterday.
