/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The Armenian community of Glendale, California, sent
an open letter to Gomidas foundation chairman, historian Ara Sarafian.
The letter says,
"Please, do not make any comments regarding the Armenian Genocide
in any Turkish media, to any Turkish journalist or to any Turkish
official, unless they officially recognize the Armenian Genocide. This
is how Harout Sassounian treats them, correctly and successfully! They
are masters of putting words in one's mouth and distorting any
statement.
We don't have to remind you, that the Turks still dream of an Armenia
without Armenians... you must be kidding if you don't already know
this."
Ara Sarafian is known for his numerous articles and statements calling
for formation of an Armenian-Turkish commission of historians to
study the 1915 events.
The massacre of 1.5 million of Armenians perpetrated by the Ottoman
Empire during World War I is classified as Genocide in all historic
records.
