CPTV Shows Genocide Documentary

CPTV SHOWS GENOCIDE DOCUMENTARY

Hartford Courant,
April 17 2006

The Turkish government still denies the overwhelming evidence of the
first genocide of the 20th century: more than 1 million Armenians
killed by Ottoman Turks during World War I.

A new documentary, “The Armenian Genocide” (CPTV, 10 p.m.), lays
out the record in a way that should allay any doubts. But a planned
panel discussion that was to have accompanied the film was scotched,
in part because it was to include a denier.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
