Congratulations to him
As far as public opinion is concerned, many believe, he made such comments for the shake of popularity. A journalist brought the story of one of Pamuk's interview held in 2001 in which he said "My earlier books could not make good sellings in USA, because the persons who reviewed my books did not criticize my books fairly, and these are persons who write books on Armenian Genocide.This was my misfortune." [ kötü eleştiri aldım, bunu da söyleyeyim burada ilk kez, o eleştirileri yapan insanlar da Ermeni katliamı konusunda kitap yazmış insanlardı. Bu benim talihsizliğimdi.... benim kitaplarımı iyi eleştirmediler ]

Now, he doesnt have to worry about them
Another woman writer, Pinar Kür, whose books previously banned and had a difficult time with the government, has pointed out to Pamuk's lack of ethics and said earlier Pamuk expressed his jelaousity and told her "You are so lucky, you are getting more famous as they banned you (your books). I wish they banned my books too".

Not many people knew that he existed before his trial, a similar case is that of Elif Safak, nobody knew she existed, even in Turkey, until she started to play on the Armenian matter, now she is also superb famous.Thanks to idiots who call themselves nationalists who made a great contribution to their cause. Once again the wisdom of Ismet Inonu's(first prime minister) words shows itself: "We should first save our country from those who try to save it."
