Editorial
CHILDREN OF THE GENOCIDE - by Jean Ipdjian
" The Genocide is not buried in the past, because we are what we are...we are the Armenian Diaspora" |
| 
London November 18, 2009 - The recently signed Protocols and the furore generated by them have brought into the fore the issue of identity and the means of identifying one’s self in society as an individual and as a group.
It has always been hard for Armenians in the Diaspora to keep their national identity while at the same time being able to identify themselves as citizens and as part of the countries, they happen to live in.
It has always been the endeavour of Armenian individuals and Organizations to create such conditions that will help keep their “Armenianism”. The object of not being swept by the currents of assimilation which are so strong specially in friendlier societies, where the physical threats to their wellbeing is less and where there are no easily definable social and religious boundaries between them and the local population.
The Diaspora, which is mostly a direct result of the persecutions of Armenians in the late 19th century Ottoman Empire and more so of the Genocide of more than a million Armenians living in their homeland in Ancient Armenia, present day Eastern Turkey and also Istanbul and other cities, has used this fact as a means of identification. We are children of the Genocide and it is practically impossible to find a family or individual whose ancestors have not been victims of the Genocide in one way or the other.
Therefore, it is inconceivable for us, the children of the Genocide to accept any form of denial or questioning of the existence of the Genocide, because in that way we will be actually denying ourselves and robbing ourselves from our own identity. This mean of identification is so strong that it was only recently that compatriotic organisations were dissolved in our communities. And this fact is one of the core problems that the Protocols have created.
It is a fact that one should not be stuck in the past. This is a popular notion put forward by the proponents of the Protocols and rapprochement with Turkey. There is no denial that, because we are geographically and historically destined to have Turkey as our neighbours, we have to establish some kind of relationship with them and find a way of coexisting next to them. But, in our “forward looking” and in our desire that we should not be “stuck in the past” we cannot forget the Genocide, we cannot pretend that it has no bearing on us today. We cannot do so, because we live today and have lived for decades outside our ancestral lands, because we have been denied our right to live and prosper on our ancestral lands.
It is, to say the least, extreme naivety to believe that this wound in our history can heal with unilateral acts of forgiveness and “forward looking” on our part. The key, which will untangle this quagmire of existence, which is the Diaspora, is firmly in Turkey’s hands. We can live with the consequences of the Genocide and the heirs of the organisers and executers of the Genocide, provided that they stop their denial, provided that they accept it. Only then can the real healing process start.
That is why the Protocols as they stand, and all such ill conceived measures such as the now defunct Turkish-Armenian Reconciliation Committee, are destined to smash into and be shattered on the wall of the resolve of the majority of Armenians of the Diaspora and the more nationalistic elements in Armenia proper.
And if we look at the chain of events, we will see that unless our resolve in standing up for and defending our National issues is unwavering and steadfast, their will continuously be attempts at nibbling on our resolve and eventually defeating it. Because we are dealing with a nation which has had no qualms in the killing of its citizens in the past or present, we are dealing with a nation whose arrogance has allowed it to have laws which make it illegal to question the Turkishness of its history, and who has complete and utter disregard for public opinion, and for whom human rights is something alien.
Therefore, we, as children of the Genocide should stand firm in our resolve, we, as children of the victims of that Genocide should not allow for petty economic considerations our rights to be swept aside, we, as children of the Genocide be misguided by well-wishing and noble ideas of understanding and unilateral attempts of reconciliation. The Genocide is not buried in the past, because we are what we are, we are the Armenian Diaspora. Jean Ipdjian London - 2009

| ARMENIAN TV STATION NOW POSSIBLE IN TURKEY,
AS LIMITATIONS ON BROADCASTS ARE LIFTED |
| Tert.am - 13 November - A new bylaw in Turkey that lifts time limitations on broadcasts in languages and dialects other than Turkish, entered into force on Friday.
Provisions of the previous version of the bylaw limited radio broadcasts in languages and dialects other than Turkish to an hour each day and a total of five hours per week for radio and up to 45 minutes a day and a total of four hours per week for television.
Now private TV stations may broadcast in other languages and dialects without a special permit, something which was necessary until now, from Turkey’s Television and Radio Organization (RTUK). |
| 256 CITIZENS OF ARMENIA, ON THE MOST WANTED LIST OF INTERPOL |
256 Armenian citizens are wanted by Interpol and information about 12 of them has been posted on an open website. In 2008 Interpol helped to detect 95 wanted persons. 54 of them were arrested, another 20 were extradited. Twenty internationally wanted criminals were found in Armenia last year. Most of them were citizens of Armenia wanted by the Russian Federation, Germany and Poland. |

| ARMENIA'S LATEST STRUGGLE -
THE BATTLE FOR TOURISTS |
| This country is emerging from troubled times. The ceasefire is holding with Azerbaijan and the border with Turkey is due to reopen. Now it's welcoming new visitors. Mark Leftly reports. |
| The Independent, UK - 15/11/2009 - On a hillside in the outskirts of Yerevan, capital of Armenia, there is a black-and-white picture of a 24-year-old man. A head-and-shoulders shot, he is dressed in military uniform, has thick eyebrows, a wide nose and slightly cauliflower ears. So detailed is the photograph that even the curvature of his Adam's apple is clear.
He stares slightly away from the camera lens, a look suggesting irritation that the army has forced him to have his picture taken. On his grave lie two dried-out yellow flowers.
The majority of the hundreds of headstones in Yerablur cemetery have a reproduction print of the deceased's face on them. Here lie the Armenian victims of the Nagorno-Karabakh War, which waged for six years to 1994, when an unofficial ceasefire was reached. |
| 
|
| Armenia and its easterly neighbour, Azerbaijan, are technically still at war over the Nagorno-Karabakh region. Most importantly, Armenia's old enemy to the west, Turkey, supported Azerbaijan and closed its 330km (205 mile) long border with the land-locked country. Finally, in October, some real progress was made on economic and diplomatic co-operation between the countries, with the signing of protocols that will soon open up a common border.
Chief among the Armenian government's economic ambitions for the Turkey agreement is to boost the country's burgeoning tourism industry. The Ministry of the Economy estimates that 422,500 tourists visited the country in the first nine months of this year, up five per cent on the same period in 2008, and it hopes to increase this number further with stable borders.
Armenia has been openly wooing potential visitors: in September the country celebrated its first International Tourism Day, while earlier this year the entry visa at Yerevan's Zvartnots International Airport was slashed by 80 per cent to 3,000 drams, about $8 (£4.75). However, not having any local currency on me, I was charged 15 bucks.
Back in the graveyard, the heavily tanned man maintaining the graves (blue-collar workers tend to be darker skinned than the wealthier classes in Yerevan) shakes my hand, as though we have shared a common ordeal, which makes me wonder if the people will undermine the tourism push with their heavily anti-Turkey stance. Later, a waiter tells me: "Most think these protocols are not good, 60 or 70 per cent are very angry. They think we will forget [the past]."
Many of Yerevan's major attractions symbolise its anger at a country that today governs more than 60 per cent of historic Armenia. Overlooking the centre of Yerevan, which is shaped like an amphitheatre as the city's altitude ranges from 900m (2,900ft) to 1,300m above sea level, is Mother Armenia (pictured on cover). Erected in 1967, Mother Armenia stands 21m high and sits on a plinth 43 metres tall that once formed the base for a statue of Stalin. She stares at Mount Ararat, now in Turkish territory, which is sadly largely obscured by smog the day I visit in an unseasonably warm, rainless October.
In Mother Armenia's right hand is a sword, lowered so it runs in front of her stomach. From a distance the silhouette of body and weapon forms a cross, apt for a country that was the first to adopt Christianity as its state religion. In front of the statue, written in the 1,700-year-old Armenian alphabet, are the words "We don't know your name, but your courage is immortal".
"She is ready to raise her sword to protect her sons," explains Elya, my tour guide, who hails from the northern provinces of the country. "It's kind of threatening towards Turkey." She says this last part with a chuckle, but there is seriousness behind the joke.
Elya describes herself as "a typical Armenian – that means patriotism". Armenians, she claims, have always been in danger of "being eliminated from this earth". Elya cites the words of one of the Young Turk leaders of the remnants of the Ottoman Empire early last century: "Only one Armenian must be preserved in the world, and that as an exhibit in a museum."
 This vile statement repeats in my head as I travel from Yerevan, on the north-eastern plateau, to a hill to the west, where the Genocide Memorial and Museum is located. Here, the Armenian people set out their major grievance against Turkey. The museum, carved into the ground like a bunker, details the massacre of 1.5m Armenians by an extreme nationalist faction of the Young Turks.
A result of cultural and religious tension, the genocide is generally said to have started in 1915 in the wake of divided Armenian loyalties in the First World War. The museum's fluent English-speaking guide shows me exhibits related to Armenians who had won Olympic medals for the Ottomans in 1912, and then a gruesome photograph of their countrymen being hanged by that empire in Aleppo four years later. There are proclamations condemning genocide from international leaders, including a recent letter from California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger.
Turkey denies Armenia's version of events, and it is this that divides Yerevan today. Unless Turkey acknowledges the genocide, many Armenians do not want to sign any agreement with their old enemy. Interestingly, the museum's guide does not take this view. "It is natural for neighbours to have good relations in a global world," it says.
I make my way to the centre, in search of cheerier experiences. It is the cleanest big city centre I've ever seen, washed and tidied each morning. This is very much for show – the view from Victory Bridge, which spans the Hradzan river, reveals tin-roofed slums on a not-too-distant hillside.
However, the centre is where most of the restaurants and bars are. And it is an urban planner's dream. There is a distinct road grid that neatly divides the city into easily navigable chunks, surrounded by a ring of green belt. There are fountains everywhere, none more impressive than those in front of the National Museum in the architectural extravaganza that is Republic Square, with its huge, beautiful buildings built between the 1920s and 1950s. Every day, just after 8pm, the museum's fountains are illuminated in blues, reds and greens, and dance to the notes of classical music.
Time for dinner, and I risk the veal tjvjik, an unholy dish consisting of heart and lungs, at the popular Caucasus restaurant. Remarkably, it is the overpowering taste of onion that ruins the meal. Other dishes are generally delicious, from the simple but usually well-spiced pork barbecue, to kyalagyosh, a porridge-like mixture of unleavened bread, beef, yoghurt and spicy garlic and lentils.
The restaurants are a little smoky, due to what seems to be the national pastime of puffing on a cigarette, but they are inexpensive. For example, Our Village, which is highly recommended by a local and is in the heart of what amounts to a tourist trap area surrounding the imposing Opera House, comes to little more than $30 for a meal for two, including starters, main courses, beers and extraordinarily powerful fruit-flavoured vodkas. Overwhelmed by the vodka and generally unimpressed by the beer – most locals prefer Kilikia, as watery and bland a lager as its 3.8 per cent strength would suggest – I am far more taken by the superb Ararat brandy.
Marspet, a taxi driver, sums it up best as we drive past the company's headquarters with its big yellow Ararat sign. "Very good," he says giving me the thumbs up and a wide grin of gold-capped molars. Such friendliness is typical of Yerevan. The people are also highly attractive and well dressed, bar the all too common sight of men and even little boys wearing Miami Vice-style white suits. However, the homogeneity of society – 98 per cent of Armenian society is indigenous – has an apparent downside. In one restaurant, a Frenchman of African descent snaps when asked the same question for what seems to him a hundredth time: "What does it matter where I am from?" Anyone who is not white and dark haired is going to stand out a mile here. Perhaps more tourism will change that.
I visit the Erebuni district to the south-west of the city. This is where Yerevan was founded in 78BC – 29 years before Rome. I stroll around the ruins of the Erebuni Fortress, which was known as the "Fortress of Blood" due to the number of red tulips growing on this hillside. The graffiti on the remaining walls here is quite affectionate by western standards, with big hearts and the word "kiss".
Protecting an overseas dignitary who is looking around the ruins are members of the military, a two-year service which is mandatory for men unless they are studying for a PhD or preparing for a religious life at a seminary. It is not hard work: they are laughing and flirting with my guide Elya, while the extraordinary sight of Ararat once again emerges on the horizon. The 24-year-old lying in Yerablur cemetery would be 40 today. As it stands, these men will not share his fate. Perhaps it is time to move on. Not forget, but move on. |

 TURKISH OFFICIALS ADMIT TO
PLAYING GAMES WITH PROTOCOLS
By Harut Sassounian - Publisher, The California Courier |
| With each passing day, the games Turkish officials have been playing with the Protocols are becoming more obvious and ridiculous!
Throughout the long months of negotiations, I repeatedly warned that Turkish officials were not sincere in their announced intention of opening the border with Armenia and establishing diplomatic relations. By acting as if they were seeking reconciliation with Armenia, Turkish leaders simply wanted to prevent further acknowledgement of the Armenian Genocide by third countries, extract maximum concessions from Armenia on Artsakh (Karabakh), and block future territorial demands from Turkey.

| News in Brief by Sevag Devletian |
- A key committee of the Armenian National Assembly effectively rejected last Friday a proposal by the opposition ARF Dashnaktsoutiun to criminalise public statements denying that the 1915 massacres of Armenians in Ottoman Turkey constituted genocide. Armenia's Criminal Code already carries heavy fines and up to four years' imprisonment for public denial of genocides and "other crimes against humanity." An amendment tabled by Dashnaktsutyun last month would extend the maximum punishment to five years and apply it to anyone "denying, playing down, approving or justifying the genocide of Armenians in Ottoman Turkey and Western Armenia."
- RA government at the November 12 session disapproved RA bill On Recognizing the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic. As RA Deputy Foreign Minister Shavarsh Kocharian declared at the session, "recognition of the NKR independence is inexpedient at present."
- US Republican Party's 2008 Presidential nominee, Arizona Senator John McCain, has publicly and properly recognised the Armenian Genocide, breaking with his longstanding silence on this human rights issue and, in the process, dramatically underscoring the post-election retreat by his campaign opponent, President Barack Obama, from his high-profile pledge to properly condemn and commemorate this crime, reported the Armenian National Committee of America (ANCA).
