counter turkish lies on a dutch website

[15levels]

Write a letter to infodesk@residentie.net ( http://home.residentie.net/ ) to protest turkish propoganda site at http://home.residentie.net/~armeensekwestie/

 

I sent a letter to them, would like to ask all of you, people, take a minute and add few cents. If they will refuse to shut it down, we'll look for the ways to hack it and bring it down (it doesnt deserve anything else). The site takes the whole event, discribes armenians as murderes and turks as innocent victims of armenian terrorism. If we dont take action this site will keep teaching lies.

 

Here is the letter I wrote: to infodesk@residentie.net

 

Dear Sir,

 

I would like to ask you to take action against shameless propoganda insited by one of the sites on your domain, http://home.residentie.net/~armeensekwestie/

which denies Armenian Genocide and spreads falsified information about the events in Asia Minor during years of WWI. Your service agreement prohibits users from posting offensive content and there is hardly anything more offensive to us, Armenians, than such spit on the memory of 1,500,000 innocent victims of Armenian Genocide

commited by Ottoman Turks on the turn of the centrury.

 

I am attaching an article published in serious dutch magazine, by a dutch correspondent in Turkey, which clearly states the facts. I hope you find these arguments convinicing enough to shut this site down and prevent future attempts to re-write history.

 

With kind regards,

 

Rouben Malayan

Amsterdam, Netherlands

to Hotheads, please wait until we try to shut it down legally (after few letters to the provider we can hope they will listen to common sense). DO NOT TRY TO HACK THIS SITE BEFORE WE GET A REPLY from the provider. I will keep you posted. Thanks.

Rouben,

 

I'll write a letter.. but, will it do any good? There's no law in Holland recognizing the Genocide, to my knowledge.

 

You know, on second thought it might be best not to act at all. If the webmaster sees that Armenians are actually listening to what he is saying and taking the time to try and shut him down, maybe he will feel motivated by it and this will in turn encourage his activities.

 

I think ignoring the denial is the best thing the Armenians can do. By confronting it, the issue becomes more of a "subject under discussion" than simply "a historical fact". And that's what the Turks want, isn't it?

Yes, it will do good. They have service agreement which prohibids posting offencive content, I well argumented my request to the letter I wrote to them. As for "ignoring" the denial, I think you are very wrong, one should never "ignore" evil, cuz evil will reproduce regardless of your involvement, unless you fight it. If you affraid to wake evil up, you have to wake up yourself, cuz evil never went to sleep...

 

This particular turkish propoganda site is only hosted on dutch server, its a private website of some probably very small and hairy turk. We can shut it down and we will.

I totally agree with Malayan about writing e-mail and urging the Dutch server to halt websites which mitigate this catastrophic event. Ignoring the issue is a NO NO! If every Armenian took the time to e-mail prominent Congressional figures, companies, media-oriented groups, etc..the Armenain genocide issue would be resolved very quickly. Imagine a Congressmen receiving 5 or 6 million e-mails about the importance of Armenian genocide acknowledgment....

Its done. The site is shut down. Thank you all for helping. Please do NOT send any more emails, as mission is acomplished.

I didn't suggest we should ignore the issue, I suggested we ignore the denial. However, Rouben has succeeded admirably, and should be commended for his efforts.
