Aleksandra's Note: Thanks to the efforts of those around the world who care about the crimes committed against Christian men, women, and children, more and more attention is being given to the Armenian Genocide of 1915, during which 1.5 million Christians were murdered by the Islamic Turkish Ottoman Empire during and after World War One. Other Christian victims included indigenous Christian Assyrians and Greeks subjugated by the Turks.
It is an understatement to say that crimes against Christians, which are again on the increase now, 100 years later, need to be, and must be, given the official attention they deserve.
The Serbians, their fellow Christian Orthodox brothers and sisters, are rightfully giving the victims of the Armenian Genocide their due, for the Serbians know well what it was like to remain Christians in the lands occupied for centuries by the Islamists.
Below is an excellent example of the media attention that is being given to this important anniversary.
Sincerely,
Aleksandra Rebic

Ping!
And 0bama is afraid he’ll upset Islamic Turkey if he acknowledges the genocide of Christian Armenians.

Demos Sharkarian was born in Downy, California where his Dad had a dairy farm ...the family were Armenians who fled just before the massacre...
Demos started the Full Gospel Businessman’s Fellowship and wrote a book called The Happiest People on Earth...in the book he told of his family in Armenia and the massacre of all those Armenians.. it was just a small book and I used to have a copy...
Sorry!
In some ways, the Armenian genocide is still going on or it might resume. IIRC, I remember an old episode of “Kung Fu” where Caine ran into an Armenian man who talked about the genocide as well. Some street urchins wanted to pay Caine $4.08 to kill the Armenian piano player, naturally, Caine does no and he talks to the man and the man tells him how bad they are treated in the Ottoman Empire.
Obama literally edits out Armenian genocide
Memory Eternal to all that were lost!
