Residentie.net closes down turkish propoganda website.

To our inquieries they replied with a letter siting they were

not aware of Armenian Quiestion therefore could not pass judgment on it, however they chose to respect their user-agreement and removed the abuser. Sad they knew nothing about Armenian Genocide, but we must pay respect to the loyal citizens of The Hague, Netherlands for honouring their commitment.

 

Thank you all who helped, please be alert, this case shows that we can always show enough evidence to proove that history cannot be re-written.

 

There is something else. "Ararat" of Atom Egoyan is in full production. That means the movie will be out hopefully in April next year. I think this is the time to realize what a wonderful opportunity this gives us to promote Armenian Cause, the movie is already bought by all major film distributors and will be played all over the world. It will bring a lot of attention to Armenian Genocide, we can already count on turkish fury so it's going to be a tough fight. We know that truth is on our side, so is the evidence.

 

Therefore,

 

We must intensify our efforts to bring the recognition of Armenian Genocide to be discussed in Europe in particular. In France the battle is won, but there is still Netherlands with fierce turkish nationalists ('grey wolves', I preffer to use Jay-k'definition of 'grey puppies', bark...bark) so there is a lot of discussion, Assen Monument and so on.

 

My quiestion is: can we come up with some sort of co-ordinated effort to raise the issue this time in 2002? I would think of international campain of perhaps very well designed material such as posters and fliers, one image can speak many words, lets remember that. In any case, if we can do something, now is the time to think about it.

 

I think if we come up with sufficient program we can allocate funds for such project perhaps from diaspora funds.

Here is the reply from the Dutch provider based in The Hague (Den Haag), Netherlands.

 

Geachte heer Malayan,

 

Wij hebben de technische dienst opdracht gegeven de betreffende homepage te blokkeren.

 

Wij betreuren het dat de inhoud beledigend voor u is. Aangezien de redactie echter geen kennis over de Armeense kwestie heeft, kan zij hierover ook geen oordeel vellen.

 

Met vriendelijke groet,

Agreed - good news all around. though I'm hesitant to say the battle in won in France just yet. Sure there is a resolution - but...

...there is also a law which makes denial of genocide a crime. If such law is passed in Netherlands turks will have nothing to do but to shut the hell up.
