Berlin: Momper: "Ottomans murdered Armenians just because they were Christians
25 April 2005
Walter Momper, President of The Berlin Parliament, spoke at the Armenian commemoration ceremony in Berlin despite reaction by Turkish initiative groups and said, "One million people were murdered just because they were Christians"...
Sayan, an MP from the PDS Party, also said that he liked the ceremony very much, he said, "This must be recognised by those who did it. And they must be taken to court. The Turkish Republic has no fault in that but they must punish those who took part in that".
Around 50 people gathered in front of a building in the Niederkirschner Street and protested Momper's speech at the Armenian 'Genocide' commemoration ceremony. Most of the protestors carrying Turkish flags were representatives of the Turkish initiative that was formed recently and is opposing the idea of the Armenian 'Genocide'."All truth passes through three stages:
First, it is ridiculed;
Second, it is violently opposed; and
Third, it is accepted as self-evident."
Arthur Schopenhauer (1788-1860)
