    Unfortunately I long ago became tired of those who frequent these forums and their so-called opinions. Nothing ever leads to anything, nothing is ever productive, and original content is close to zero.
    I've said in another post that I think this place serves no useful purpose, maybe I'm angry because of dissapointment, because I still think it could actually serve a very useful purpose. Almost the only people whose posts I bother to read in detail are those by Turks, they are the only ones which are interesting to read - but as I've also said before, I wish they had never found this place because the decent ones will probably leave with great dissapointment and lost illusions, and the rotten ones are here just to post their Turkish propaganda.
    Plenipotentiary meow!

      Don't worry about Bell. It is normal for him behave like a bastard. I don't know exactly what his problem is, but I would be willing to bet it comes from frustrations in his personal life.

      Not only is this unfortunate for him, but it is also unfortunate for Armenians in cyberspace. You see, for some reason he stalks Armenian forums and spouts off his BS...and (until he gets banned) we have to sit here and take it.

      On the other hand, this forum is useful for him as he uses it like a cathartic pillow. With that said, I'm happy we Armenians are helping release his frustrations (albeit temporarily). We're rooting for him to get well.

        First, it is ridiculed;
        Second, it is violently opposed; and
        Third, it is accepted as self-evident."

                Hillary Clinton Funding Problems And Mehmet Celebi
                AS noted: Kurdish News reports that the producer of the film “Valley of the Wolves-Irak” is a donor to Hillary Clinton and was appointed a delegate by Hillary Clinton to the Democratic National Convention later this year:

                Hillary Clinton has recently employed Mehmet Celebi, a Turkish ultra-nationalist - who has worked on and raised money for various anti-American, anti-Armenian, anti-Semitic and anti-Kurdish projects - as one of her delegates for her campaign for President of the United States.

                This is not surprising when knowing that the Clinton Administration has been one of the most pro-Turkish U.S. administrations in the history of the U.S. donating more military arms to Turkey than all the other U.S. presidents combined.

                And the film is of interest because:

                So what makes the film so controversial? For starters, American soldiers are portrayed as violent, brutish, trigger-happy, civilian-murdering, hyper-religious, sadistic gun-nuts. The star villain is an arrogant, murderous character named Sam Marshall (played by American actor Billy Zane), who is killed by the Turkish protagonist at the film’s end. Another stereotypical villain is a Jewish doctor (played by American actor Gary Busey) stationed at Abu Ghraib prison who extracts human organs from prisoners for export to Israel, England and the USA.

                Says Gateway Pundit:

                Mehmet Celebi co-owns BMH Worldwide, which produced “Valley of the Wolves-Irak.”
                Mehmet Celebi is a Hillraiser for the Clintons.
                Hillary Clinton accepted over $100,000 from this Holocaust denier.
                Don’t expect this to make any headlines.

                It already has. But, if true, does it really have anything to with Clinton? Can she check everything every donor is involved with?

                  More and more, I see Clinton as bad news for Armenian issues.

                  Hillary's Curious Campaign Loan

                  By Nat Parry
                  February 9, 2008


                  ...As ABC News reported, `Two of Clinton's top moneymen, John Merrigan
                  and Matthew `Mac' Bernstein, are part of a lobbying team hired by the
                  rulers of Dubai to defend against a U.S.-based lawsuit alleging that
                  the rulers had enslaved young boys to race camels.'

                  Merrigan's and Bernstein's firm, DLA Piper, arranged a meeting with
                  Clinton and three other senators last year on behalf of Dubai,
                  according to filings. Dubai paid the firm $3.7 million for a year's
                  work.

                  Merrigan and Bernstein also lobbied on behalf of the Turkish
                  government in March 2007 to prevent `the introduction, debate and
                  passage of legislation and other U.S. government action that harms
                  Turkey's interests or image.'

                  Specifically, the lobbyists opposed a resolution, co-sponsored by
                  Clinton, that would term the World War I-era massacre of Armenians by
                  Ottoman Turks a genocide.

                  Although Clinton was an original co-sponsor, she soon qualified her
                  support for the resolution, telling the Boston Globe editorial board
                  that `the adamant expression of real dismay and outrage by this
                  Turkish government has to be factored into this.'

                  Merrigan and Bernstein have since pledged to raise at least $250,000
                  for Clinton's presidential campaign, and DLA Piper employees now
                  represent the largest bloc of contributors to Clinton's presidential
                  campaign, according to the Center for Responsive Politics.

                  Campaign finance experts say the connection between foreign lobbying
                  and presidential campaign fundraising deserves scrutiny because
                  lobbyists may have undue influence if their candidate reaches the
                  Oval Office. ...
