FRENCH HISTORIAN THIBAUX TO BECOME "ATAKAN TURK"

Hurriyet, Turkey
Dec 28 2006

French historian and writer Jean Michel Thibaux, who announced he was
applying for Turkish citizenship following the French Parliament’s
decision to approve the bill making it a crime to deny Armenian
allegations of genocide by the Turks, has had his application approved
by the Interior Ministry in Ankara.

Following the initial approval by the Interior Ministry, Thibaux’s
application has been presented to the Council of Ministers. Following
approval by the ministers, Thibaux will reportedly take the Turkish
name "Atakan Turk."

“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
