Film on Armenian Revolt to BeScreened at U.S. Congress
Friday, 23 July 2010
A film on the Armenian revolt will be screened at the U.S. Congress on July 28.
The Assembly of Turkish American Associations (ATAA) decided to host a
screening of the film "The Armenian Revolt" at the U.S. Congress on
July 28.
"The Armenian Revolt" is regarding the armed Armenian Independence
Movement (1880-1919) which sought to create a politically, ethnically,
and religiously homogenous Armenian state in the eastern region of the
Ottoman Empire, and failed.
The ATAA move came after a documentary film, "Aghet: A Genocide",
about Armenian allegations regarding the incidents of 1915 was
screened at Rayburn House Office Building.
Bruce Fein, a legal adviser to former U.S. president Ronald Reagan,
will provide opening remarks.
"The Armenian Revolt", which appeared on Bloomington PBS, takes a look
at WWI designs for the Caucasus.
The producer of the film, Marty Callaghan, is a war documentarian, who
recently produced, "Blood, Sand and Oil" regarding World War I in the
Middle East and Allied use of micronationalism from the Caucasus to
the Arabian Peninsula to destroy the multi-ethnic, multi-cultural
Ottoman Empire, and replace it with states servile to western empires.
ATAA is a fast-growing umbrella organization of Turkish American
associations throughout the United States, Canada and Turkey,
dedicated to pursuing the interests of Turkish Americans and friends
of Turkey in Washington and beyond.
