Re: Can Turkey Learn Tolerance?

It has been ten years since Hrant Dink was gunned down. Now Garo Paylan is being persecuted. It is so sad that we cannot live on our own lands in peace.

Turkey is returning to it's very dark days so no one can be certain. Erdogan has threatened to ethnic cleanse Armenians from Turkey before, and as the AKP increases in power they might decide to indirectly encourage more discrimination.

Germany nixes Armenian 'genocide' concert in Istanbul

October 25, 2016
1 Comment
BERLIN (AP) — Germany's Foreign Ministry has halted plans for a classical concert about the Armenian genocide that was due to be held at its consulate in Istanbul.
The ministry confirmed media reports Tuesday that it had informed the Dresden Symphony Orchestra the venue wouldn't be available Nov. 13.
The orchestra had planned to perform "Aghet ," a special concert commemorating the mass killing of up to 1.5 million Armenians by Ottoman Turks around the time of World War I.
The killings are viewed by many scholars as the first genocide of the 20th century and Germany's Parliament recently passed a resolution describing them as such, much to Turkey's anger.
German news agency dpa reports that the orchestra had invited Turkey's President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and Prime Minister Binali Yildirim to the concert.

The deportation of Armenians “was the right decision”, says Bahceli

June 9, 2016 13:26

Yerevan/Mediamax/. The leader of Turkey’s opposition Nationalist
Movement Party Devlet Bahceli stated that "the deportation of
Armenians in 1915 and 1916 by the Ottomans was the right decision”.

“The future of our people would be in danger if the deportation
decision for the Armenians wasn’t given in those conditions,” said
Bahceli during a parliamentary group meeting of his party in Ankara on
June 8, Turkish Hurriyetreports.

The Turkish politician added that such decision “should be done again
if the circumstances were the same”.

“Changing the places of the Armenians doesn’t aim to annihilate them,
but to protect the state, which is absolutely correct,” said Bahceli.

Can a hominoid learn to be human ?
That's the question.

If its a Tukish baby raised by other ethnicity like us or say Greeks, etc.....it might work. But once he is an adult it is hard to say what he will do knowing he was born a Turk.
Turkish unity is strong just like a LA gang Crips, etc.

So answer is No, not possible, blood and skull too tick, tunnel vision and they can act like Borgs of Star Trek or Orcs of Lord of the Ring in a second.......4 letter hominoid will do and will be.

Their conduct shows their nature.

TURKEY FANS BOO MINUTE'S SILENCE FOR PARIS VICTIMS - VIDEO

12:24, 18 Nov 2015

Turkish fans booed during the minute's silence for the victims of
the Paris attacks before their national team drew 0-0 with Greece in
a friendly international soccer game on Tuesday, Reuters reports.

According to The Daily Mail, chants of 'Allahu Akbar' were reportedly
heard in Istanbul as some Turkey fans shamefully booed a pre-match
minute's silence for the victims of the Paris attacks.

The mark of respect was observed at matches across Europe, including
at Wembley where France faced England, after Islamic State militants
struck Paris on Friday killing 129 people.

Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu and Greek counterpart Alexis
Tsipras watched the game together, in a sign of reconciliation between
the two neighbors, whose relationship has suffered from hostilities
in the past.

It was the first time the two teams had met for eight years and
the Turkish Football Federation had announced a string of additional
security measures before the match at the Istanbul Basaksehir stadium,
which was a 17,000 sell out.

On the sidelines of the UN General Assembly session in New York,
Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu had a meeting with his Belgian
counterpart Charles Michel.

The Resolution the Belgian Parliament adopted on the occasion of the
Armenian genocide Centennial was high on the agenda, Ermenihaber.am
reports, quoting Turkish TRThaber.com.

According to the source, the Belgian Prime Minister said the bill is
of political importance and does not imply any legal consequences.

Davutoglu, in turn, expressed his discontent with sanctions against
MPs that voted against the bill, meaning Mahinur Ozdemir, who is of
Turkish descent.

Davutoglu added they are ready to discuss any issue, including the
one of expelling the lawmaker from his party.

ISTANBUL ARMENIAN ORPHANAGE BUILDING ATTACKED, 2 INJURED

13:25, 14.08.2015

An attack took place on Thursday night at Camp Armen Armenian orphanage
in Istanbul, Turkey, reported Agos Armenian bilingual weekly of
Istanbul.

Accordingly, unidentified persons attacked and beat two of the
"watchmen," on the hundredth day of keeping watch against the
demolition of the orphanage.

The Nor Zartonk movement of Istanbul Armenians, and which is keeping
this watch in the area, released a statement regarding this attack.

"After the harassment continued for days, a fascist attack has
occurred on 13.08.2015 at around 11:30pm," the statement reads. "The
individuals, who came to the door of Camp Armen with two vehicles,
have attacked with sticks our comrades standing guard. The attack was
disposed of, [but] in the meantime, two of our friends were beaten."

Nor Zartonk added, however, that this incident cannot break their
resolve, and they will continue their struggle with the same
determination.

Camp Armen Armenian orphanage was confiscated by the Turkish
authorities back in 1987. Subsequently, it was sold to a Turkish
businessman who, in turn, decided to demolish the orphanage and build
luxury homes in the premises. As a result of public pressure, however,
the demolition of the orphanage has been temporarily halted.

The camp was once home to around 1,500 Armenian children, including
the late Hrant Dink--the founder and chief editor of Agos Armenian
bilingual weekly of Istanbul, and who was shot dead on January 19,
2007 outside the office of his weekly--, and his wife Rakel.

The orphanage sought to help underprivileged Armenian children and
orphans, who had moved to Istanbul from other parts of Turkey, get
an education.
