Turks, you all are the exact reflection of your satan ancestors. Your history is full of masacares. You are nurtured that way. You are nurtured to kill, to destroy, to make innocent people suffer. You and your "Democrat Government" are ackword chickens. You are trying to make up your fame by rewriting the history. Be a man, stand up and confess your guilt. Be afraid of God, man. (If you recognize God of course. You work for Satan not God). Bur remember Jesus overcome the guilt and Satan. Your guilt is doubled by dening Armenian Genocide.

2 things:

1. I applaud the Turks for getting out there and making a scene, and most importantly doing it in a place where their voices could be heard! If Aram Hamparian was there, why wasn't the rest of the ANCA and it's supporters there supporting him? I am on the ANCA list and I don't recall getting an e-mail about any rally. What is this? A one man show? I am ashamed that this is what it comes down to! Unorganized Armenian .orgs in DC getting their ___es handed to them by Turks. In short, good job Turks, you won the battle.

2. The bad news is that although winning this battle, Turks are going to lose the WAR. It is, as we say in Armenian "That which is written on their foreheads". The problem is that for one to win such a war he/she/they must believe in their cause - they must feel it in the depths of their hearts. Now with the intellectual elite in Turkey ringing the truths of the Armenian Genocide over the airwaves, Turks are starting to own up to what happened in 1915 and realize that thier fight isn't in their hearts. They realize their "cause" is unfounded and absurd - and those Turks like in D.C. seemed to have missed the newsflash, you laggards will catch on eventually. Unfortunately it will be long after the Orhan Pamuks and Taner Achkams of Turkey have been made both Turkish and Armenian heros. Armenians on the other hand (those that actively participate in their culture - a shrinking number) do believe in their cause, they know it because it happened to them. The stories have been passed down to them, they unlike Turks, do not ignore eyewitness accounts from neutral observers as well as documentation attesting to what happened in 1915 and most Armenians arm themselves with truth.

Anyway, congrats Turks, Armenians you better start demanding that your .orgs in DC do something and do it fast.

I don't think they won anything... they just showed us their true colors, that's all. This actually will make Armenians angier and more outraged... I'm sure a non-Armenian who's educated enough to know about the genocide, would get disgusted by the sight of Turks' rally on April 24, a day of remembrance of 1.5 million Armenians massacred. So they haven't won anything, they just made themselves look bad.... very bad.

We should've had people there... There were articles on how turks in America planned to rally in front of the White House and protest against the Armenian genocide, we should've had Armenians in Washington do the same. I'm sure there are more than 300 Armenians in Washington . Again, lack of organization.

Tongue, I respect your opinion. However, I surely don't believe when observing the scope of what Armenians put together we can say that we BEAT the Turkish strategy (an obvious one at that) of getting large numbers of people in D.C. - namely in front of the White House.

And I hope that you are right, I hope what happened delivers new empowerment to Armenians - in the past I don't think this has happend, but from what I am observing in recent history - the tables are turning. Armenians are no longer being kicked around like dogs. And the youth, wow... the Armenian youth is really impressing me. So many Armenians have come from families eager to assimilate them (for the most part) into a diasporan way of life. But to be completely honest, I think I am seeing a reversal of this. I think Armenian Youth are emerging more Armenian than their parents, and perhaps grandparents. They are surely proving themselves far more capable and far more willing to struggle for our nation. What is happening is amazing, and nothing that is taking place now seems to be typical of Armenians given our history of being submissive to everyone and everything. I think our newest generations finally got sick of it and decided to put a stop to it. It is going to be very interesting to see what the coming decade will bring - I know BIG BIG BIG things are coming. As long as each Armenian puts in his/her share of effort, the WAR will be won... only this time by us.

who knows maybe some thousands of soul may rest in peace finally what do you say?
what happened when Germany recognized the holocaust? think about this...
I think as a nation it fulfilled its moral obligation to the souls of the people(most of whom were its own citizens) that vanished...
This is a point that you can never understand ...moral obligation to humanity...

I think they will reveal the real face of this problem after Turkey says "yes Ottoman Empire did that".

They will claim land (%80 of Turkey) and alot of money.
Strangely Kurdish people are also claiming the same land, and they are saying those lands are in Great Kurdistan
I gues they will fight at that point.

Thats how i see it... No end to it.


Peace out.

yes of course that's why Jews demanded half of Germany and they got it...after Balcan war losses this has been the constant paranoia of the Turkish government which is inscribed in every history book in Turkey...minorities wanna take our land back...hey man relax a little bit are u afraid of 40,000 Armenians why are u feeding 30 million soldiers for
always peace but no denial

one thing is for sure Bulgarians , Serbians, Romanians, Iranians, Kurds, Greeks, Assirians they all claimed that they were butchered by Ottomans what a coincidence don't you think?
As your government tells u " There's no friend for a Turk besides a Turk" everybody is wrong only the poor Turks are right
