Web Site on Land Reparations for Armenia Has Nearly 11,000 Hits
Regional Kinetics’s website `Land Reparations for the Turkish Genocide
of the Armenians’ has had nearly 11,000 page hits from visitors from 56
countries since being on-line September 2008. Its Facebook "Cause"
currently has over 900 members. This level of interest is
uncharacteristically high for this type of web site. The 11 minute
historical documentary `1915 Turkish Genocide of the Armenians,’ which
is accessible on the site home page, had the highest viewership, after
the home pages.
The web site, written in six languages,
provides a rationale for Armenian land claims against the Republic of
Turkey. Quoting from the web site, `Reparations from the Turkish state
to the Armenian people for the crime of genocide must include a land
transfer for Armenia to exist as a self-sustaining state. Sovereign
access to the Black Sea is the requisite element for its survival.’
The intent of the Turks was to remove the capability of Armenians to
exist as a nation on their ancestral lands, and Regional Kinetics
believes the capacity of Armenians to be self-sufficient must be
restored to the Republic of Armenia.
Regional Kinetics includes a set of six `Frequently Asked Questions8
0 and
their answers in English, Armenian, Persian, Turkish, Russian, and
Georgian to provide background on the issues raised by the web site.
An Academics Papers page specifically dealing reparations, land grants,
insurance settlements, and related issues is frequently updated.
Scholarly submissions to this site are encouraged.
Regional Kinetics is a virtual, worldwide organization composed of
individuals who assert that land reparations for the Turkish genocide of
the Armenians must be based on a clearly stated, reasonable argument.
