On April 24, 2006, the Armenian community will commemorate the Genocide of 1915 which was perpetrated by the Young Turk government of
In turn, our sons and daughters should not have to struggle to make the
We are asking men and women from all continents to stand vigilant, as the memory of the Martyrs is decried, as unprecedented violence is being inflicted on the sons and daughters of the survivors of the Armenian Genocide, and as the very existence of our identity, symbolized by the vestiges of our culture, is being willfully wiped out.
Today, Armenians are the target of the denial of the crime of which their parents were innocent victims.
Scorned, bruised, exasperated, but nevertheless Armenian, we have to tell the world, once and for all, that the time for geopolitical procrastination has passed. We are not claiming to be victims, but protesters for simple justice. The first of these is to allow us to pay respect to our graveless parents' remains. We will do this on April 24, as we have done every year since 1916. In the absence of burial sites, www.inhomage.com enables every one of us to write in the names of those who lost their lives on our ancestral soil. Once this has been done, another task will be invoked: to insure the permanent recognition of the Genocide of the Armenian people and the inevitable consequences of recognition.
Just like a petition, the recording of the names of the victims will become a recognized document render to the United Nations, the only institution whose competence in this area is acknowledged by
Brought to task, the Turkish government has embarked on an unprecedented campaign of denial of strength of which Armenians would again be the victims.
The time has come for all Armenians to resist.
Therefore, on the occasion of the 91st commemoration of this human cataclysm, we call upon each of to resist falling into silent consent by visiting the website now at www.inhomage.com to see for yourselves and to help show that our dead have names. This is our duty.
To honor the memory of our 1,500,000 Martyrs, please pass this information on to other descendants of victims.
