Dear Daniel Varoujan, The Barbar Turks have killed you but your soul remains alive true your people. I wanted to inform you that today 96 years after the genocide a huge step towards justice has been reached thanks to FRANCE, President Chirac & Sarkozy, the parlement has adopted & confirmed a new law punishing the denial of the Armenian genocide by Turkey all this despite the unprecedented pressure & blackmail by Turkish government.
