ARMENIANS TO ESTABLISH 'GENOCIDE' MEMORIAL COMPLEX IN SEVRES http://www.todayszaman.com/news-305595-armenians-to-establish-genocide-memorial-complex-in-sevres.html 30 January 2013 /TODAY'S ZAMAN, Ä°STANBUL An initiative of the Armenian diaspora in France plans to establish an "Armenian genocide" memorial complex among the buildings of the Mekhitarist Congregation's Samuel-Murad School in the Sevres district of Paris, known as the place where the Ottoman Empire signed a peace treaty with the Allies in 1920 following the end of World War I. The project is to be carried out by the Sevres 2015 Association in Paris and will include a museum as well as a center for research and lectures. "The goal of our project is to institutionalize the Armenian presence and experience in Sevres," said Jirair Gergerian, the president of the Sevres 2015 Association. The project will begin with the establishment of an independent foundation that will be provided with the congregation's lands, located in the Armenian-populated communities of Paris. The memorial will open on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the so-called 'Armenian genocide' in 2015. Armenians claim that the 1915 killings of up to 1.5 million Armenians as the Ottoman Empire broke up was the 20th century's first genocide, and several European countries have recognized the massacres as such. Switzerland has convicted people of racism for denying the genocide. But Turkey asserts that there was no systematic campaign to kill Armenians and that many Turks also died during the chaotic disintegration of the empire. It also argues the death toll is inflated.

Could someone tell these idiots that Hagia Sophia was a church before their ilk came! http://english.ruvr.ru/images/new/logo_eng.gif Muslims launch a “Star War” against Lego Tags:Muslims, Society, News, World Jan 24, 2013 18:14 Moscow Time http://english.ruvr.ru/images/photo_mini.gif http://english.ruvr.ru/images/printer_mini.gif http://english.ruvr.ru/images/mail_mini.gif http://english.ruvr.ru/images/add_to_blog_mini.gif http://m.ruvr.ru/data/2013/01/24/1334761810/308464_4596.jpg © Photo: SXC.hu The Turkish community has accused Lego of racism over a Star Wars toy allegedly depicting the Hagia Sophia mosque in Istanbul, one of the world's most renowned mosques, calling for official apologies from the toy manufacturer. The Turkish community members claim that the Jabba’s Palace toy, with its domed roof, takes its design from Istanbul’s famous mosque and the Jami al-Kabir mosque in Beirut, and that the separate watchtower resembles a minaret. Moreover, the slug-like toy creatures are associated with terrorism, slavery, murder and human sacrifice. The statement posted on the organization’s official website refers to Jabba the Hutt as a “terrorist” who “likes to smoke hookah and have his victims killed”. Moreover, as many of the Lego figures carry weapons, the Turkish organization also urged parents “not to buy toys of war or toys of discrimination” as the model goes against the “peaceful coexistence of different cultures in Europe” and cannot be appropriate “for children between 9 and 14 years old”. Dr. Melissa Günes, General Secretary of the Turkish Cultural Community, sent an official complaint calling for an apology from Lego for its cultural insensitivity. She added that the organization is planning legal actions in Austria, Germany and Turkey against Lego if the community doesn’t get a satisfactory response. In its turn, Lego insists that this Star Wars toy “does not reflect any actually existing buildings, people, or the mentioned mosque” and are based on characters from the movie. “We regret that the product has caused the members of the Turkish cultural community to come to a wrong interpretation, but point out that when designing the product, only the fictional content of the Star Wars saga were referred to”, said Katharina Sasse, Lego's spokesperson. The Hagia Sofia, a converted Christian basilica famed for its massive domed roof, is one of the most famous mosques in the world and served Istanbul’s Muslim community for over 500 years before becoming a museum in 1943. It is also regarded as one of the finest, and largest examples, of Byzantine architecture. Voice of Russia, Daily Mail, UK Telegraph
