Hidden 'Armenians' in Turkey...


I don’t know what you guys think of the clip and the people there( some of you might be tearful), but personally I have no pity for these Armenians, they are an utter embarrassment to our nation...

My father's aunt in Istanbul used to travel to Anatolia and adopt these "hidden" Armenians and raise them as Armenians. She taught them the language, religion, traditions, etc.

The fact that these people cannot willingly and freely practice whichever culture they feel they are part of is a testament to the intolerance and hostility in Turkey.

Turkey's idiotic government system is really starting to get on my nerves! I can't wait until Turkey is no more and then all "hidden" Armenians could freely practice their freedoms!

I don't like the fact that they are treated so badly but I think that if they stand up for themselves they will show the Turks that they really are the same (outside religion and ethnicity). I think that they show the Turks that we are so similar in most aspects that it's almost impossible to tell the difference between us if you take away our religion and language. I think that this will lead to integration and even acceptance for one another which, in my opinion, seems better than hate and animosity in Turkey.

Maybe "They" and "you", but keep it at that.

Why just "me" and "them"?

I completely agree....From the way they look, I wouldnt have told the difference between these people and the turks...This video is a disgrace to turks...Its at least a good thing that they were looked after as a child by turks even though their true identity was hidded...
I also want to add somthing....
I dont know if any of you realized turks dont have any "asian" looks even though they come from asia...most of them look middle eastern wondered why? I have my personaly explanation...It a know fact that they kept the children left from a war and made them soldiers, gave them turkish identity and tought them islam.... I personally think that the main reason of turks being obsessed with their "turkish blood" and "turkish nationality" is cause of these mixings...Thats why if you call a turk "gavur" in other words "infidel" its a big insult...Also I personally know some "fanatic turks" who are "obsessed" with being a turk and at the same time they have a non-turk family root...Therefore its like a defence mechanism for them to have "extra fanatic" turkishness...

Well I know these people. Even there is one at our family. She was my fathers aunts mother, and we know that she was born at Armenian. She was dead at 1994 and I wouldnt have time to talk with her about her past. I remember that it was a kind of joke among the family that when she become angry to someone else, everyone was keep silent and say that "her Armenian vein is rised" This is a really very sad part of 1915. And a very interesting situation in modern Turkey that many people doesnt know that they have Armenian roots. Actually their children was borned as Muslim Turks and the Armenian roots are just a nostalgy, unfortunately.

Of course they were not treatened bad, how can it be, they were your mothers and fathers.

I guess some Turks, by spewing their kaka around here, have affected you so much… but please, for God’s sake stop the “we” talk…
