I'm very sad today...
I saw my flag under feet. In where? In a "official" memorial for a "so called" massacre. It was official, government is organizing it every year.
They told their children in schools how they take revenge for years, they teached war songs to little kids. Look what they did to this children;



I'm not showing you these for how they're all bad! No every nation has nice and bad people. But the thing bothers me, a government is responsible for all those. I saw so many people talking about peace, talking about why this 2 nation is in this situation today. Most of em were friends before, they were neighbours, they were married, they were singing the same folk song in different languages. Each nation still has a hope their inside, because they have people who believe they are human, they got emotions, they know who separated them for disgusting emperialist projects.

Before i finish this writing, i wanna tell you a story, a story that must be lesson for the day we live;

When the Turks won the war against Greece occupation after 1st world war, lastly they saved the city called İzmir and Greek armies left the Anatolia. Both the commander of army and leader of the government of Turkey "MUSTAFA KEMAL ATATÜRK" came to İzmir and went to place where he would spend the night. When he arrived the place he saw a Greek flag on the enterance of place. He asked people; "what is this?".They replied; "This was the same place which Greece King stayed when city was under control of Greece army and when he came here he walked over Turkish flag, so we wanted you do the same thing". Then "Mustafa Kemal ATATÜRK" got angry and made this unforgetable speech.

"Greece King had made a mistake. Because flag is honor of a nation. I cant do the same mistake again. So take it from there, fold nicely and send to Greek King."

Upon this, crowd felt ashamed and realized they were wrong, they were wrong and guilty as the man they blamed.

I did not try to humiliate Greek people or blame them. I said before every nation has nice or bad persons. I love Greek and Armanian people, because i cant hate Greek or Armanian nation because of one of them did a bad thing. However i believe they dont hate Turkish nation because of one turkish man did a bad thing.

(Sorry for my english, i know it's not good)

Peace y'all

Please listen the folk song i told you which both Turkishs and Armanians sings for hundered years. It's name is Sarı Gelin in Turkish, Sari Gyalin in Armanian language. ( "Sarı Gelin" means "SUN" in Azeri Turkish) Both Armanians and Turkihs claim it's their own folk song. Just this is showing us how they lived like brothers in same homeland)

Armanian version:

The genocide of Aremenians is yet another example of the intolerance of Muslims towards other religions.
