/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "Lessons and spirit of slain Hrant Dink, the
editor-in-chief of Armenian-Turkish "Agos" weekly, are alive, Aleida
Assman of Konstanz University in Germany said during "From the Burden
of the Past to Societal Peace and Democracy" international conference
at Bilgi University in Istanbul. "We still hear his voice, and aim
for his beliefs to continue to exist," she told.

Drawing attention to the "We are all Armenian" slogan carried by
those attending Hrant Dink’s funeral in Istanbul, Assman said that
"synagogues, homes and goods belonging to the Jewish minority were
ransacked in Germany in 1938. If we had been able to say, "We are all
Jewish," would Hitler have been able to do this?", Hurriyet reports.
