The long tragedy

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/6279241.stm

The holocaust that the whole Muslim world denies continues, but in a much more restricted way than in former decades. What is the restriction? Well, most of the 2.5 million Armenians who used to live in the north eastern corner of Anatolia are dead. 1.5 million of them died between 1915 and 1917 at the hands of the Ottoman empire, the Muslim empire.

Hrant Dink, an Armenian and a Christian (as were most Armenians), was murdered by a young Turk on January 22nd for insulting Turkey and not being a Muslim. As LGF reports, "...initial stories about the shooting included a quote from an eyewitness who said Samast had shouted, “I shot the infidel!” Reuters themselves had this quote, but it was edited out of later versions." How quaint that the media feel they have to hide crimes done in the name of Islam. Why might that be?

How is it that nobody knows about the Armenian holocaust? On my recent trip to Jerusalem, I went to the Armenian holocaust museum. It was empty. I was the only person there. I felt slightly uncomfortable because it felt like I was the only person on a planet with 7 billion plus people who cared that 1.5 million people were murdered because they weren't Turks and they weren't Muslim. How do Muslims in Britain get away with presenting their co-religionists as the perpetual victims at the mercy of great satanic western empires when the last time there was a Muslim empire, it murdered literally millions of Christians it felt were a threat to its existence? No wonder the Turks don't want to admit it happened. It contradicts the whole extended narrative of Muslim lies about how the world works. The next time you hear a crowd of vociferous young Muslims screaming about Israel being the new Nazis, perhaps you could remind them about the first great ethnic cleansing of the 20th century.
