How about:

Killers: Turks
Victims: Armenians, Assyrians, GCs, Kurds, etc.
Definition: According to Ankara it never happened, and even if it did then someone else started it.

I heard genocide used by the Jews, Armenians, people of Rwanda and Darfur. The definition is basically when an organisation/government attempt to kill and wipe a race completely off the face of the earth. This is hard to predict if it truly is genocide.

We know in the past Turkey would have loved to remove Greeks from the planet, but since there attempts were fairly distant in terms of sucess we cannot call this genocide.

However, Hitler did get close to making Jewish people extinct, and he made it clear that this was a goal he aimed to achieve. Therefore this can be called genocide. Similar with the Turks vs the Armenians.

It's a odd area to try and explain, but I hope this shed some light on the matter.
