"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

  • Who, after all, speaks today of the annihilation of the Armenians?

  • OBAMA IS THE REGULAR LIAR PRESIDENT OF USA AS THE MOST OF REST US PRESIDENTS.... STOP LYING MR.OBAMA.... WE STILL HOPE U WILL KEEP YOUR WORD... MAN HAVE TO KEEP THEIR WORDS NO MATTER PRESIDENT OR SIMPLE DRIVER OR SOMETHING ELSE....

  • Why cant those turks just admit it already? We have pictures, we have history and we have proof. Its like asking someone if they wrote a bad picture in school and the student (Turk) just keeps saying " I didnt do it, I didnt do it" wow can the turkish government grow up!

  • A lie is the worst thing, truth is better. Once you tell the truth you feel better and people respect you. But a lie is just evil and makes people think bad of you. Fuck the Turks, in this vid the Turks have no room.

  • Fuck Turkey from Greece. I love you Armenia, we will have our revenge one day.

  • look at obama's crossed arms. it's a locked pose. he's feeling uncomfortable and nervous. he's defending

  • theres also the biggest mass murder worldwide under communism that has been recognised by the americans at least but the lunatic left fabian socialist british government refuses to class that as a war crime

  • Turkey committed GENOCIDE against 1,500,000 Armenians, 750,000 Assyrians, 543,000 Pontic Greeks...

    Turkey INVADED (1974) & still OCCUPPIES 37% of Cyprus committing 1000;s of MASS MURDERS & RAPES & creating 250,000 Refugees...

    Turkey PERSECUTES 15,000,000 Kurds in Kurdistan...

    Turkey comits HUMAN RIGHTS VIOLATIONS against its tiny Christian Minority including the Patriarch of the Eastern Orthodox Church & PUNISHES any Turk who chooses to convert to Christianity...

    TURKEY IS EVIL!!!

  • guys, Obama is a liberal democrat, what more does one need to say? So, by calling him coward or liar you're not really reinventing anything, that goes with the territory. All liberals like to do is talk and philosophize about things but they won't bother putting a little bit of effort towards achieving the ideals they preach. Obama is no exception. All he's got going for him is his pompous style of speech and his good voice; but there is no man there as far as I'm concerned.

  • It is a big deal because this not only happened in the century I was born in, but also because the USA turns their back on the very people that many Americans tried to save from estermination once long ago!

    Don't allow Turkey into the EU until they admit it, and when the start treating their minories right!

    Listen to me Armenians! Let your voices be heard! Don't let the stupid president look past this bill again!

    Don't let Turkey supress the USA into not passing the bill!
