Armenian Genocide

2004-01-27 17:30:23.407144+01 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

Charlene's step-mom is Armenian, so when we go to visit them I not only get some culinary explorations, I also hear stories of families. A recurring theme is "parents were killed, grew up in a Turkish orphanage". If you're looking for historical precedence about why negotiations in northern Iraq right now are so tense, a good place to start might be this review of The Burning Tigris: The Armenian Genocide and America's Response.
