    Cultural Genocide Lectures

    Simon Maghakyan, the author of `The First Christian Civilization's
    Cultural Genocide' photo-collection, will be available for delivering
    presentations on Cultural Genocide of the Armenian Heritage starting
    this fall.

    (I-Newswire) - Simon Maghakyan, the author of `The First Christian
    Civilization's Cultural Genocide' photo-collection, will be available
    for delivering presentations on Cultural Genocide of the Armenian
    Heritage starting this fall.

    Maghakyan, a student in Colorado, has been studying the state of the
    Armenian cultural monuments in Turkey for the last few years. He has
    collected hundreds of photographs from various sources that testify
    to the attempted destruction of the Armenian monuments in the
    Republic of Turkey. Maghakyan is also the author of more than
    three-dozen Armenian-related articles that have been published in the
    USA, Armenia, Russia, Iran, Greece, etc.

    Maghakyan has given speeches during various human rights awareness
    events and has been called `a vibrant speaker' by Colorado's local
    papers. He was paid tribute to by the Colorado Congressman Tom
    Tancredo in the House of the Representatives for his continuous
    academic success and for his genuine service to Colorado's community.
    During 2004-2005, Maghakyan served as the president of Phi Theta
    Kappa International Honor Society's Sigma Phi chapter.

    The Cultural Genocide of the Armenian Heritage is a result of the
    denialist policy of the Turkish government. Between 1915 ( the year
    the Armenian Genocide started ) and now, more than 2000 Armenian
    churches and cathedrals of eastern Turkey have been ruined, converted
    to mosques and desecrated. As Henry Morgenthau, America's Ambassador
    to the Ottoman Empire at the time of the Armenian Genocide, has
    stated, `the killing of the Armenian people was accomplished by the
    systematic destruction of churches, schools, libraries, treasures of
    arts and cultural monuments in an attempt to eliminate all traces of
    a noble civilization with a history of more than 3000 years.'

    Lecture requests can be made through www.CulturalGenocide.cjb.net.


    What if I find someone else when looking for you? My soul shivers as the idea invades my mind.

    I was looking at the thread on climbing and followed a link to Turkey's Ministry of Culture and Tourism site [http://goturkey.kultur.gov.tr/]. I clicked on the Eastern region. Not one mention of Armenia, not one. It talks of many churches and ruins and completely leaves Armenia out of it. Out of curiousity, I've checked other Turkish sites on their so-called culture. Again, it's as if Armenians never lived there. So this cultural genocide is a part of their plan to slowly erase the history of massive Armenian settlement in Anatolia, for if there were no Armenians in Anatolia, how could so many have been murdered.

      Huh! An amateur ...trying to run before he can even crawl. The monuments need solutions not more rabble rousers.

      I have 12,000 photos, and I have never heard of him.
      Plenipotentiary meow!

        Look how he says that he has collected hundreds of photographs from various sources. I think he never even set foot there.
