Orphans of the Genocide (7 minute trailer)

By the end of WWI over 150,000 Armenian children were left parentless as a direct result of the Armenian Genocide perpetrated by the Ottoman Authorities. Near East Relief commissioned by the US Congress catered to over 132,000 Armenian orphans alone.
Orphans of the Genocide is a short film produced by the Armenoid Team. This short documentary includes a feature interview by Maurice Missak Kelechian, whose findings unveiled the secrets of an orphanage in Antoura near Beirut, Lebanon where 1,000 Armenian Genocide Orphans were being turkified. Mr. Keleshian's research prompted an article by award winning journalist Robert Fisk of The Independent magazine.
This short documentary also includes testimonials from children of Armenian Genocide orphans. This 18 minute documentary debuted on April 24, 2010 at the commemoration of the 95th Anniversary of the Armenian Genocide in Hollywood Florida. The one hour version of Orphans of the Genocide will include a feature interview by award winning journalist Robert Fisk.

In all this game, the devil will lose and be accused of everything because the GOD don’t want any rivals. Conclusion: live at the full in the freedom of GOD (praying in a right form, following the INSTRUCTIONS in the Bible - keeping the 10 commandments - including keeping the Saturday as the 7th day etc.) instead of in the incapacity and limited power of devil because he is just a temporary puppet. Jesus Christ is our savior and our hope!

@KiraWei1 Don't worry, we don't think that of every Turks. Alot of them helped us in the past, and today, a very little amount of turks would die to shout out the truth about the armenian genocide.

Thank you so much Mr. Maronian, we loved your film in Fresno. This resonated with us as 90% of the 40,000 Armenians in Fresno are descendants of an Armenian Genocide.

I can't believe Turkish people still believe what their government stance is on Armenian Genocide. Wake up already...
