Z'areh Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 Today Ernst Zundel was sentenced to five years in jail for spreading hate propaganda by denying the reality of the Holocaust. His last words before the verdict? "An international commission should be set up to investigate what happened" Iran's Ahmadinejad: " An international commission of historians should be set up to investigate the Holocaust" Turkish Government and majority of the Turkish intelligentsia: “an impartial commission of international historians should be set up to investigate the Armenian claims" No further comments are necessary.

It is totally stupid to sentence someone for his historic positions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z'areh Posted February 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 It is totally stupid to sentence someone for his historic positions. I agree. People who are desperate in their hate-filled ideologies will have a martyr in people like Zundel. By that token, the French bill does the same to the Armenian genocide deniers, if and when implemented in France. In our case, the international forces against us are so powerful that we tend to use any means to counter the Turkish propaganda machine, in this case we gravitate with a sense of relief towards legislations, such as the French one, however absurd they might be. For this reason I feel the French bill has its usefulness for political reasons for today . Tomorrow is another issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Verginne Posted February 18, 2007 Report Share Posted February 18, 2007 (edited) Hate, hate, hate bla bla bla. How ridiculous you sound. Anyway, it was a mistake for Armenians to try to mimick the jews, who quite the opposite, have something to hide.
