The title is not a misprint.
Hrant Dink was murdered in 1915.
Hrant Dink was murdered because of 1915, because he brought out the truth about 1915.
The criminals who murdered Hrant Dink were the same criminals who planned and perpetrated 1915.
The criminals in 1915 did not only murder people like Hrant Dink – leaders, brains and hearts of the Armenian nation.
They followed up by murdering the men in these leaders’ families, their fathers, sons and brothers.
They then kidnapped the murdered men’s wives and daughters, raping them or taking them as wives, maids, or even worse, branding them with tattoos and selling them as slaves in slave markets.
They then then took the orphaned grandchildren, placing them in Moslem homes, forcefully Turkifying and Islamicizing them.
They then took all of their family assets, houses, shops, valuable possessions, and divided them among themselves; and the government legalized this plunder by giving them deeds to the stolen properties.
They did this not only to the leaders, brains and hearts of the Armenian nation, but to hundreds, thousands, no, hundreds of thousands of other families, until one and one half million Armenians were wiped out from their historic homeland.
This is the truth of 1915, this is the truth still denied by the Turkish state, even though the peoples of Turkey have now discovered the truth, but unfortunately, only after Hrant Dink’s murder.
As we commemorate the eighth anniversary of the murder of Hrant Dink, we also commemorate the centennial anniversary of the attempted murder of the Armenian nation.
The Armenians who survived the attempted murder will continue the struggle, until truth and justice prevails.
