The Armenian Genocide In April of 1915 tens of thousands of Armenian men were rounded up and shot. Hundreds of thousands of women, old men and children were deported south across the mountains to Cilicia and Syria. On April 15 the Armenians appealed to the German Ambassador in Constantinople for formal German protection. This was rejected by Berlin on the grounds that it would offend the Turkish Government. By April 19 more than 50,000 Armenians had been murdered in the Van province.

Within nine months, more than 600,000 Armenians were massacred. Of the deported during that same period, more than 400,000 perished of the brutalities and privations of the southward march into Mesopotamia. By September more than a million Armenians were the victims of what later became known as the Armenian Genocide! A further 200,000 were forcibly converted to Islam to give Armenia a new Turkish sense of identity and strip the Armenian people of their past as the first Christian state in the world.

" The Turks are a human cancer, a creeping agony in the flesh of the lands which they misgovern, rotting every fibre of life ... I am glad that the Turk is to be called to a final account for his long record of infamy against humanity "
-David Lloyd George
British Statesman and Prime Minister
In July of the same year, a Swiss journalist, Emile Hilderbrand, interviewed Kemal, who openly blamed the Young Turks for the massacre of "millions of our Christian subjects".
The interview originally appeared in the August 1-1926 issue of the Los Angeles Examiner.
This newspaper interview is an important document, since, in the ninth paragraph, Kemal Ataturk admits the reality of the Armenian Genocide.
"Turkish government denial of the Armenian Genocide and prosecution of those who dare
speak the truth breeds an environment of extreme intolerance.
The government is ultimately responsible for this murder---this literal killing of truth."

Denial is the last stage of Genocide. But silence is even more deadly, because it ensures that the genocide is complete.
*******************************************
Finally, Armenian President Suspends Protocols, citing Turkish preconditions and their delay tactics.
It's time for the entire world condemn and punish Turkey for the denial, repudiation & falsification of the facts.
It's the time for Turkey to ADMIT, REPENT & PAY for the Genocide committed by their ancestors against Armenians!

**************************************
"I should like to see any power in this world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people whose history is ended, whose wars have been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, whose literature is unread, whose music is unheard, and whose prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy this race! Destroy Armenia! See if you can do it. Send them from their homes into the desert. Let them have neither bread nor water. Burn their homes and churches. Then, see if they will not laugh again, see if they will not sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia." - William Saroyan
