ARE YOU “TOO BUSY” TO STAND TALL FOR YOUR CULTURE & HERITAGE?
Click here to send your message to the members of House Foreign Affairs Committee
Dear All,
Congressman Howard Berman (D-CA, 28th District) is one of the lead actors in the unfortunate scheme that is H.Res.252. For what it is worth, below, please find the summary of my conversation with HB’s staffer.
***
I called Congressman Howard Berman’s Washington office at 9:00 am PST (Noon EST) and talked to Dan Harsha. After greetings, I started out with this introduction:
“… This phone call is about H.Res. 252. We, Americans of Turkish descent, think it is replete with factual errors, omissions, and distortions. Also, it is insulting and defamatory to Turkey. If passed, not only Turkish-US relations would be harmed, but also the US Congress’ own records dating back to 1920s would have been dismissed or ignored.
“ General Harbord’s report dated 1920 mentions “…refined Armenian atrocities victimizing Muslims…” not race killings of Armenians as alleged. H.Res.192 of 24 April 1922 states 1,414,000 Armenians being alive as of 31 December 1921, thus refuting Armenian claims of 1.5 million dead as the entire population was around that. How can one kill the entire population and still come up with 1.4 million Armenian alive?
“ If you step back from this controversy for a minute and take a look at the big picture, you will see this: Turks and Armenians lived in harmonious co-habitation for nearly a millennium. This was changed towards the end of 19th Century and beginning of 20th Century when Armenians took up arms against their own government. Russia, England and France, of course, helped and encouraged Armenians in their revolts.
“ Then there were Armenian agitation, raids, feuds, terrorism, and treason, all based on territorial demands towards establishing a greater Armenia. Armenians were never a majority in the lands where they lived and if greater did Armenia succeed, it would be the first apartheid of the 20th Century where a Christian minority would be ruling a Muslim majority.
“ When Turks defended their home in the face of brutal foreign invasions and equally vicious domestic fifth column activities and revolts, through TERESET (temporary resettlement) it was reported in the Western media frequently as Muslims or Turks annihilating Armenians. The New York Times reported on the conflict 145 times in 1915 not allowing Turkish side to be heard even once; that’s how deep the bias and bigotry run in those days.
“ Even the US Ambassador to Istanbul was merely conveying reports filed by Armenian revolutionaries and missionaries who could not care less about the Muslim suffering. Morgenthau was billed as a diplomat and a historian, whereas he was neither. He was a real estate agent and a developer from upstate New York who raised the most funds and was rewarded by Pres, Wilson with an ambassadorial post. At first, he didn’t want to go, because he wanted a more influential capital, like London, Paris, or Berlin. A Rabbi friend of his convinced him to go telling him how important the Ottoman Empire is and how the Ottomans helped Jews escape death in Iberia during the Spanish inquisitions of 1492. That’s how ignorant and biased Morgenthau was. Based on his reports, the British wartime propaganda book, the Blue Book, was published. Embellishments, feeding on falsifications, appearing in more and more exaggerated tertiary, quaternary sources and beyond… The cycle of hearsay and forgeries finally ended up in H.Res. 252…”
(At this time, Dan Harsha interrupted saying he could not listen to me ad nauseam. Would I please wrap it up.)
“…Let me conclude by saying that H.Res. 252 is erroneous, unfair, unwise, and unethical. What’s more, it would harm US-Turkey relations…”
Dan Harsha responded:
“… I appreciate hearing your views. Berman is a member of the Turkish Caucus and values Turkey’s friendship a lot. Berman doesn’t think what happened 100 years ago was Turkey’s fault or recognizing genocide would affect US-Turkey relations. He just thinks that Turkey should face its own history like Germany did about its Nazi past. Berman, himself being a survivor from the Holocaust, is sensitive about this issue…”
Then I responded again by saying that the Jewish Holocaust is a court-proven fact, whereas the Armenia genocide is a long-discredited political claim. I stated:
“… Holocaust is a uniquely true tragedy, while the alleged genocide is a wartime suffering that involves revolts and retaliations. Did Jews establish Jewish armies behind German lines, join invaders, terrorize the German countryside, demand German territories, in order to establish a Jewish state on German soil? Of course, not. Armenian, on the other hand, did all that and much more before, during, and after WWI. How can the two be uttered in the same breath? Isn’t that an insult to the silent memories of six million Jews exterminated for just being Jews?..”
By this time, Dan Harsha was anxious to leave this conversation. He said he really had to go and thanked me for my time. I thanked back for his time.
CONCLUSIONS:
Howard Berman will vote yes. That’s too bad. Berman thinks he is doing the right thing, without realizing he is simply brainwashed by the Armenian lobby (if not also intimidated and threatened by the Armenian fanatics who gave us Armenian terrorism. Remember Hampig Sassoonian and Mourad Topalian?)
If Berman could click on www.ethocide.com and see the photos of Armenian gangs armed to the teeth, posing proudly by the Turks they killed, gun toting Armenian priests claiming to have waged epic battles against the Turks, and many other Armenian terrorists, would Berman still believe the “poor, starving, unarmed, helpless, noncombatant Armenian” myth? Genocide, huh? What a sham!
SOLUTIONS:
This entire crop of pro-genocide congress people needs to be replaced with a new crop which is more educated ( and financially and electorally supported by Turkish Americans) about
1) the other side of the story and
2) geo-strategic, military-industrial, socio-economic, and political values of Turkey.
3) the emerging socio-economic and political might of the Turkish Americans.
APPEAL TO DEAR VOLUNTEERS AND FRIENDS,
If you want to give our selfless and spirited efforts opposing H.Res.252 a helping hand, then send your message to all members of the House Foreign Affairs Committee in 30 seconds by clicking the link below right.
Click…click… Done!
Cost = 30 seconds of your time.

Journey of Mankind
In all our cells we have genes. Genes are made up of DNA, the string-like code of life that determines what we are, from our fingernails to our innate potential for playing the piano. By analysing genes, we can trace the geographic route taken by our ancestors back to an ultimate birthplace in Africa, at the dawn of our species. Further, if we take any two individuals and compare their genes, we will find that they share a more recent ancestor – living, in all probability, outside Africa. What is more, I believe that we can now prove where those ancestors lived and when they left their homelands. This remarkable proof has become fully possible only within the last decade, as a result of pioneering work by a number of people.

Turkish parliamentarians calls for suing Khojaly crime at international court
[ 25 Feb 2010 15:56 ]
Baku – APA. On February 25, Turkish parliament addressed the issue related to anniversary of Khojaly tragedy in Azerbaijan.
According to APA, Turkish parliamentarians took the floor and expressed opinion of their parties about the frightful massacre committed in the occupied Nagorno Karabakh region of Azerbaijan by Armenian invaders and their supporters – Russian militaries 18 years ago. The parliamentarians cursed the Khojaly massacre as a crime against humanity and expressed their solidarity with Azerbaijan.
Chairman of Azerbaijan-Turkish inter-parliamentary friendship group, member of ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) Mustafa Kabakci said Armenia, which accused Turkey in genocide, itself committed genocide in the near past – in 1992. “Armenians supported by the Russian 366th infantry regiment closed entrance and exits of Khojaly town of Azerbaijan and killed 613 of our brothers and sisters. We were together with Azerbaijan yesterday and we are together today”.
Atilla Kaya spoken on behalf of Nationalist Movement Party (MHP) said he took the floor to remember and remind about the Khojaly tragedy, one of the massacres of 20th century committed by Armenians. “Khojaly tragedy was a crime against our nation in Nagorno Karabakh. This massacre was committed with the support of Russians. Khojaly was a town with 11 000 population, but part of the people left the town. Those who didn’t leave faced with an attack of Armenians and Russians on February 26, 1992. 613 were killed, 1200 – taken hostage and 475 seriously wounded”.
Kaya focused the attention on the fact that Nagorno Karabakh Armenians were led by incumbent president of Armenia Serzh Sargsyan and former president Robert Kocharian during the Khojaly genocide. “Unfortunately today Serzh Sargsyan visits Turkey and meets with our president. Those who committed war crimes in Bosnia appeared before the international court. Those who committed war crimes in Azerbaijan must also appear before the international court”.

U.S. Official ‘Praises’ Armenian Stance On Turkey
Armenia — President Serzh Sarkisian (R) meets with U.S. Assistant Secretary of State Philip Gordon in Kiev on February 25, 2010.
25.02.2010Emil DanielyanA top U.S. diplomat was reported to praise Armenia’s position in the stalled normalization process with Turkey at a meeting with President Serzh Sarkisian on Thursday.
Sarkisian and Assistant Secretary of State Philip Gordon met in the Ukrainian capital Kiev after attending the inauguration of Ukraine’s newly elected president, Viktor Yanukovich.A statement by Sarkisian’s office said the talks focused on the U.S.-backed efforts to normalize relations between Armenia and Turkey. It said the Armenian leader reaffirmed Yerevan’s commitment to an unconditional implementation of the agreements to that effect which were signed by the two governments in October.
The statement quoted Gordon as describing this position as “constructive” and saying that the Armenian and Turkish parliaments should ratify the two protocols “without linking them to other existing problems.”
It was a clear reference to Turkish leaders’ statements making Turkish ratification conditional on a resolution of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict that would satisfy Azerbaijan. The Armenian government says this “precondition” contradicts the essence of the protocols, which make no reference to the Karabakh dispute.
Ankara also attributes its reluctance to ratify the protocols to the Armenian Constitutional Court’s recent interpretation of the protocols’ implications which it says ran counter to the letter and spirit of the deal. Gordon, who coordinates U.S. policy on Europe and the former Soviet Union, dismissed the Turkish claims last month.
U.S. officials have yet to publicly comment on Yerevan’s threats to wake away from the agreements if the Turks continue to drag their feet. Acting on those threats, the Armenian parliament passed on Thursday, in the second and final reading, legal amendments that facilitate such a move.
Adding a new twist to the normalization process is a decision by a U.S. congressional committee to discuss and possibly vote on March 4 on a resolution describing the 1915 massacres of Armenians in the Ottoman Empire as genocide. A Turkish parliamentary delegation is expected to visit Washington this week to lobby U.S. lawmakers to block it.
The U.S. State Department opposed similar resolutions drafted by pro-Armenian legislators in the past, citing Turkey’s geopolitical significance for the United States. Department officials have so far pointedly refrained from criticizing the latest genocide bill. Some observers believe Washington will use it to press Ankara to ratify the protocols.
Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu clearly alluded to such possibility when he condemned the bill earlier this month. He said the prospect of U.S. recognition of the Armenian genocide will not force his government to soften its stance on protocol ratification.
Davutoglu insisted this week that the Turkish-Armenian rapprochement has not reached an impasse. “Negotiations and the process are going on,” he said, according to the Regnum news agency.

Paying too little for gas? How about $8 a gallon?
A SURPRISE FROM OBAMA ON THE WAY – STOP THE SURPRISE
BIGGEST TAX INCREASE IN THE US HISTORY IS AROUND THE CORNER“I have been leading the fight against the global warming hoax in the Senate for a decade. Myron Ebell and his team have always been there fighting beside me. Freedom Action is an invaluable ally.” –Senator James M. Inhofe (R-Oklahoma) Stop $8 Gas—Click Here Dear Fellow Patriot, Are you paying too little for gas at the pump?Are your electric bills way too low?President Barack Obama thinks so. The President said that under his global warming plan “electricity rates would necessarily skyrocket.” And he holds up Europe—where gas prices routinely approach $8 a gallon—as the model for U. S. energy policy. If you too are outraged by this, read on. President Obama, Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Senator Harry Reid, and White House Climate Czar Carol Browner all agree: You are paying far too little for the energy that fuels your cars and keeps the lights on. And they have BIG plans to change that. Our politicians must hear from millions of Americans loud and clear that we aren’t going to let them get away with it. We can force them to back down—we’ve already done it by stopping Cap-and-Trade (which is really Cap-and-TAX). House and Senate Members are rapidly running away from those bills. Why? Because the American people found out how much it was going to cost them, and said NO! But that isn’t stopping the zealots in Obama’s Administration. They are now trying to use backdoor EPA regulations to raise energy costs through the roof. And what is most outrageous, they think they can mount this sneak attack on American consumers without getting Congress to approve it. Why are they doing this? They say it’s to stop global warming. What global warming! The top scientist in the Climategate scandal even recently admitted that global temperatures stopped going up in 1995. That’s right—there has been no global warming since 1995! Stop $8 Gas—Click Here What is really going on here is that Obama’s zealots are using the phony global warming crisis in order to push their big government agenda. Their goal? A HIDDEN TAX INCREASE. But not just any tax increase. The biggest tax increase in history. It’s that simple. They want trillions of dollars of our money to pay for more and more government spending. Not just for a few years—but for decades and decades. But with all of us working together, we can stop this sneak attack on our own wallets and America’s prosperity. Here’s how— We are sending this SOS to over one million Americans—and that’s just a start. Just one of us will be ignored. But when millions of Americans speak with one voice, Congress and even President Obama will be forced to listen. Click here to sign the Declaration that tells President Obama to back down and demands that Congress take action to stop Obama’s global warming regulations! By signing the Declaration, you will be adding your voice to a mighty grassroots movement. Freedom Action is a grassroots web-based group, dedicated to more freedom and less government. Our motto is what Margaret Thatcher said about President Reagan, “He put freedom on the offensive.” At Freedom Action, we’re doing just that. So let me invite you to sign the declaration to tell your elected leaders that you won’t stand for $8 gas and “skyrocketing” electric bills. Stop $8 Gas—Click Here Thanks for all you do to keep America strong! Yours for freedom, Myron Ebell
Director, Freedom Action(By way of background, I’ve been engaged in grassroots activism and public policy since volunteering for the Reagan campaign in the 1980s. In 2009, Business Insider stated, “Myron Ebell may be enemy #1 to the current climate change community.” I’m trying hard to live up to that!) P. S. Once you’ve signed the Declaration, please forward this email to your friends. You can tell them that it only takes a couple minutes to take action on the biggest threat we face to our personal freedom and prosperity.
