Make Istanbul Konstantinopel again.

Followers of Ataturk have a deeply problematic ideology and an utterly outdated mindset. Nowadays, even Muslims living in Turkey have started to empathize with and understand Armenians. Thank her for bringing this up and fighting against this taboo. “At the event titled ‘Whose Story Is Being Told? On the Representation of Minorities in Local TV Series,’ held at the Hrant Dink Foundation, sociologist and researcher Dr. Feyza Akınerdem stated: ‘Jewish and Greek identities don’t come across as threatening in TV series, but Armenian and Alevi identities are never touched upon, because they are reminders of wounds that have yet to heal.’”

@FranckenTheo It is still not too late to delete this. Let me put it this way; he is the rough equivalent of Leopold II for the Christians of Turkey.

Mijn respect voor Ataturk is groot. Hij kwam 100 jaar geleden - lang voor West-Europese landen - op voor vrouwenrechten (waaronder stemrecht en onderwijs) en een seculiere staat waar religie niet aan het stuur zit maar op de achterbank. Zo hoort het maar net. ❤️ En hij was een gentleman officier, meesterstrateeg en geharde strijder. Daarom knielde ik voor zijn mausoleum vorig jaar en zou ik het onmiddellijk opnieuw doen. De wereld heeft meer mensen als Ataturk nodig.

The Epstein files were legally supposed to be released 146 days ago. If citizens ignored court orders and federal law for 146 days, they’d be in jail. When the government officials do it, nothing happens.

The man who led the effort to have the Armenian Genocide recognized in Germany, the friend of the Armenian people, Cem Özdemir, has now been elected Minister-President of Baden-Württemberg. Congratulations!

Antranik decided to kill the Kurdish bey Beşir Halil by cutting off his head, and he did so. He personally cut off Beşir Halil’s head in front of his family, took the medal that had been awarded by Abdülhamid from Beşir Halil’s chest, pinned it onto his own chest, and had a commemorative photograph taken on horseback. From that time on, and because of that medal, his friends began to call Antranik ‘Pasha.’ That medal had been given to Beşir Halil’s father for his ‘success’ in the Armenian massacres of 1895.

Germany without Turks: - no crime - no honor killings - no drug dealing - no ghettos - no hearing Turkish in every street - no espionage for erdogan - no financing terror state - no propagating T*rkey instead of returning back - no annoying people with their horns, because dilara and mehmed getting married - no stupid rap culture - no “wallah brother” bullshit Sounds good to me.

A Kurdish post on Arman Tsarukyan’s words about Kurds: ‘My grandfather’s father killed 9 Armenians during the Armenian Genocide. I thought he had acted out of ignorance. But they deserved it, sons of b*tches.’ The Armenian nation must understand; even though there have been positive examples, your enemy’s enemy is not always your friend.

Δόξα τω Θεώ Praise be to God. A clear win for Greeks in Turkey. I would be also super happy to see an Armenian seminary.

Marriage is a Sacrament. In the Armenian Church, you feel that it truly is one.

Wish you all a blessed Sunday. Do not skip Church.

It will never be your home. But if you feel that way, take a DNA test, or let’s check what the Armenian population of your village was in the 1900s.

I’ve often believed that the Armenian Genocide is under studied and underreported in the west because: 1. The Young Turk CUP (Committee of Union and Progress) was blatantly progressive politically, which makes progressives today look bad. 2. It murdered orthodox Christians, few of whom live in the west. 3. It shows a Muslim genocide of Christians, which goes against those trying to portray a Muslim/Christian alliance. 4. It shows the bizarre alliance between leftism and Islam for evil gains 5. It shows a very educated and advanced Islamic society falling to barbarism, which counters the narrative that education makes us moral people (the same issue can be found in the advanced and educated German society in WWII) 6. It undercuts the intense persecution of orthodox Christians for millennia, and harms the myth that Islam can coexist with Christianity.

I suppose everyone is curious why I am so deeply interested in Armenian history, Armenology, and in general—who I am :)) First of all, greetings to everyone—my name is Levan Tonaganyan, and I am from Ozurgeti. Ozurgeti is a small town in Western Georgia, in the Guria region. On my mother’s side, I am Georgian; on my father’s side, I am Armenian. I have a diagnosis of Cerebral Palsy (CP), and I cannot speak. Because of this, I didn’t attend school, as Georgian schools at that time lacked an adapted environment for people with disabilities. Everything I know, I learned at home on my own. I also taught myself to read and write at the age of 14. I know three languages—Georgian, Russian, and Armenian (specifically the Karin dialect). Now, I am learning English as well. I cannot write with a pen; I type using a keyboard. The keyboard is my tongue, my way of communicating. When I turned 15, I started attending a day center for people with disabilities, where I studied computers. I remember how, as kids at the center, we used to play video games on a Sony console. Sometimes I would win, sometimes they would. One day, I beat a boy at football, and he started getting angry: "How could this Armenian manage to beat me?!" Back then, I wasn't even interested in Armenian topics, but to them, I was still "the Armenian." They even nicknamed me "Armianski" (The Armenian) :)) There were many such instances at the day center. Of course, it was very sad to hear all of this, but I kept fighting and learning. It was precisely these moments that pushed me toward an interest in my roots. Previously, I had no interest in Armenian history —I was into programming, astronomy, and science. I also studied world religions at an institute, even though I am an atheist myself. Religion, specifically Western Protestantism, interests me because of my political views. even though I am an atheist, I know that God loves me, and that is enough for me. Later, I read a lot, re-evaluated many things, and understood what the issue was: "The more often you remind ethnic minorities of their origins, the more you awaken a nationalist spirit within them. Before the Nazis came to power, most Jews living in Europe didn't even remember or care about their origins." My love for Armenian music began with the songs of Aram Asatryan and Komitas, which I love to this day :))) However, in my childhood, I didn't love Armenian songs as much as I do today. Now, I only listen to Armenian and Middle Eastern music. Yet, I live by Western and European values. To be honest, it was specifically my love for Armenian music that inspired me to study Armenology. Once, in an interview, Saakashvili said with a sense of resentment: "Our country is better than the Armenia', our cuisine is better, our culture is better, our music is better—so why should they be ahead of us?" To that, I say: You have a healthy tongue, hands, and legs—go and become more successful, who is stopping you? That Armenian became successful in Lebanon, the USA, or elsewhere because they worked hard. You should work hard too; use your brain a little! I have neither healthy speech, nor hands, nor legs, but I do not lose heart. Everything I know, I learned myself through persistence. I am constantly in a process of learning and making new discoveries.

Ararat is the spiritual center of Armenia

That is the problem with most Armenians from Turkey. They are sheep, offering their necks to their butchers. Pathetic.
