Repeatedly, time and again. Besides, you sickening, primitive, fascist
Turks
can't produce but a handful of "scholars", mostly paid by Turkey, that are
ready to take fascist Turkey's position, in contrast to the huge number of
scholars that do ascertain the truth of the Armenian Genocide.
Here a few characterizations of Bernard Lewis:

But that does not absolve Lewis of his failures, his elisions, his
distortions, his underappreciations, his allowing vanity to cloud his keen
sight. How could he continue to deny the Armenian genocide? Out of what
misplaced loyalties to Ottomanists and Osmanlis, and to his decades of
friend****p with many Turks, could he have found himself denying m***** of
evidence and eyewitness testimony? Which was more im****tant -- the
continued
friend****p of Turks, or the scholarly approval of Vahakn Dadrian and
others
who have studied the Armenian genocide?

When was Professor Lewis expressing an objective opinion: when he wrote
the
book [i.e., The Emergence of Modern Turkey, 1962/68 versions], or when he
signed the political ad? To phrase it more bluntly, what shall we believe?
Certainly, the data available to him in the writing of the book were
sufficiently clear and convincing for him to proceed to these three clear
and unequivocal statements [i.e., describing the 1894-96, and 1909 events
as
massacres of the Armenians by the Turks, and the 1915 slaughter of 1.5
million Armenians by the Turks as a holocaust]. What had changed? The
subject had entered the sphere of politics, and Prof. Lewis, along with so
many other signers of the ad, had decided to take sides where their
economic, professional, personal, and emotional interests lay: with the
Turkish government, and not with history.

He was officially found guilty for hate speech in France! Another
primitive,
genocide-denying Turkish diplomat was arrested in Switzerland, found
guilty
and fined some substantial fee.
