Re: Armenian Race and Cultural Background

Ragib Zarakoglu(spelling may be wrong) and his wife were jailed for two years for publishing books on the genocide. Their offices were bombed and they were also attacked. Dr Berktay as well as dozens of scholars have been charged but escaped Turkey to avoid being jailed. Many more have been jailed under acrticle 159 which was previously used to jail anyone speaking of the Armenian Genocide.

Among those who have been tried under Article 301, who either have been sentenced or are still on trial are Aydın Engin, Serkis Saropyan, Hasan Cemal, İsmet Berkan, Burak Bekdil, Haluk Şahin, Murat Belge, Erol Katırcıoğlu, Ferhat Tunç, İlhan Selçuk, İbrahim Kaboğlu, Baskın Oran, Emin Karaca, Zülkif Kısanak, Fatih Taş, Aziz Özer, Erkan Akay, Ersen Korkmaz, Necmettin Salaz, Mehmet Çolak and İrfan Uçar.

Ապուշ *րքական կառավարութիւնը միայն կը ստուքէ որ Հայ Ցեղասպանութիւնը գոյութիւն ունի, մարդոց պատճելով երբ իրենք զայն մասին կը խօսին:

The dumb *urkish government is just proving the Armenian Genocide exists by punishing people when they speak about it.

Re: Armenian Race and Cultural Background

They are so ridiculous. "insulting Turkishness?" That's just absurd. what kind of a law is that?

Re: Armenian Race and Cultural Background

A law they made so that the Armenian Genocide won't be recognized. >

Re: Armenian Race and Cultural Background

Siamanto, are you saying I am a "*urkish" imposter?

LOL I'm impressed: perceptive enough to see the obvious. By the way, it is interesting to note that, in your reply, "impostor" is not quoted while "*urkish" is!!! A subconscious confession?

P.S. Just curious, did you really think that you were smart enough to convince or make believe???

Re: Armenian Race and Cultural Background

Ragip Zarakolu wasn't jailed because he said that armenian genocide did occur.

Re: Armenian Race and Cultural Background

Ragip Zarakolu speaks about the genocid regularly. Why do you think he's living in the U.S.now and not Turkey. If goes back to Turkey, he would be jailed.
