Turkey is beset on all sides by the shock doctrine strategy
of the west, and from within by its US-backed marionette
government. Now the Armenian Genocide issue has once again bubbled
to the surface. Apologize! Apologize! yell the so-called Turkish
liberals, egos stroked and, no doubt, palms greased by their western
puppeteers. It's the same old drama with the same stodgy cast burbling
the same trite lines. As usual, the government does nothing, thus
contributing to the confusion, apathy, and fear that stalk the
land. But that's the whole idea isn't it?
Turkish people, instead of handwringing and moaning, ACT! Turkish
people, you heirs of the Ataturk Revolution, Mustafa Kemal
Ataturk gave you the right (and responsibility) to save your
country. (http://yunus.hacettepe.edu.tr/~sadi/dizeler/hitab e2.html
) Fight the rush-to-judgment efforts of the Armenian Genocide
lobby. Every "Turkish child of future generations"- should demand
that their parliament immediately enact a resolution that condemns
the American Indian Genocide. Turkish people"-ACT! Defend your country
against the dark powers that Mustafa Kemal Ataturk foresaw over eighty
years ago. The facts of the catastrophe done to the American Indians
are in plain sight and beyond dispute. Spain, Portugal, England,
and, most importantly, the United States of America should stand
condemned in the eyes of the world for the crimes committed against
the aboriginal population in the Americas.
Upwards of 200 million Indians lost their lives on the combined
North, Central, and South American continents after Columbus landed in
1492. The Indians in South and Central America were mostly enslaved to
extract precious metals. The Indians in North America were displaced,
starved, and slaughtered to make way for the enormous flow of European
immigrants. Vast numbers died from European diseases, perhaps the first
weapon of mass destruction, in this case, biological warfare. Surely
Turkey has the right to defend itself from the Western claims of
genocide, given the historically bloody hand of the West.
>From approximately 15-18 million North American Indians present in
the days of Columbus, only 190,000 were left in the territorial
United States in 1890. The destruction of the Southern Indians
(the Cherokee, Choctaw, Chickasaw, and Creek tribes) resulted in
the seizure and clearance of their enormously fertile forest lands
(the Southern black belt) in order to expand both slavery and cotton
production in Arkansas, Alabama, and Mississippi. In this manner,
the red and black races were displaced, enslaved, and murdered in
order for white America to prosper. The proof of this assertion is
fully documented and unassailable.
On the other hand, Turkey has welcomed warmly the persecuted minorities
of many nations. The same year that the destruction of the American
Indians began, 1492, Turkey's Sultan Bayezit II accepted the Jews
expelled from Spain and Portugal. Similar compassion was render to Jews
centuries who fled Hitler's genocide. Surely Turkey has the right,
the responsibility, and moral authority to counter the orchestrated,
poorly documented, rush-to-judgment of the Armenian Lobby and its
collaborators, both western and Turkish.
The horrific destruction of the sophisticated Native American
cultural system was encouraged by the government of the United States,
particularly under the administration of that so-called champion of
so-called democracy, Andrew Jackson. By 1890, the American Indians
were finished. Their numbers had been reduced by 98 percent over the
400 years since Columbus landed. By 1890 the United States government
had seized 98 percent of their land. No greater genocide or land grab
has existed in the history of the world. Surely Turkey has the right
to challenge the unproven claim of so-called genocide by affirming
through parliamentary resolution the well-documented genocide of an
entire race of people by an act of policy by the government of the
United States of America.
It is high time that Turkey takes the offensive on the matter of
genocide. In this day of widespread destruction, it is high time to
remind America, Americans, and their government, that they are up
to their ancestral elbows in the blood of the American Indians. The
Turkish government must condemn the American Indian Genocide, or itself
be condemned. And if you, the Turkish people, think that makes you
a traitor, then read again Nazım Hikmet's magnificent poem, Vatan
Haini ("Traitor"-) below, along with Ataturk's statement of your
"primary duty."- Cem Ryan, Ph.D.
