    SO-CALLED ARMENIAN GENOCIDE CONFERENCE DENOUNCED

    The Anatolian Times, Turkey
    Sept 20 2005

    ISTANBUL - A denouncement has been filed against several Armenian
    scholars who organized a conference on the so-called Armenian genocide
    and used Ataturk's picture on a poster at the University of California,
    Los Angeles (UCLA).

    The denouncement was filed at the Uskudar Republican Prosecutor's
    Office and had the signatures of Dr. Ibrahim Oztek, Dr. Zihni Papakci
    and owner of Iktidar Magazine Metin Hacimustafaoglu.

    A conference on the so-called Armenian genocide was organized at
    UCLA which was attended by Armenian scholars Vahram Shemmassian,
    Ardashes Kassakhian and Levon Marashlian last April. The conference
    posters had Ataturk's picture in front of puppies.

    Dr. Oztek stressed that Turks and the founder of Turkey Ataturk were
    insulted by the posters and conference organized at UCLA. "We will
    sue those responsible for the insult against the Turks," noted Oztek.
