/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Nobel Prize-winning Turkish author Orhan Pamuk said
"I don’t think of these things any more" in response to reporters’
questions over threats as he arrived at the airport in Istanbul. Pamuk
was coming from Cairo where he joined the 39th Cairo Book Fair as an
honorary guest. Reporters asked him about the threat made by Yusuf
Hayal, one of the names behind the murder of Armenian editor Hrant
Dink, Pamuk dismissed claims by saying he was not giving them a second
thought, reports Today’s Zaman.

“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
