! Armenian Americans - American Armenians

Oh dear Armenians - you whom Mother America took to her bosom, helped so many of you to become rich and powerful... if the Turks acknowledge the ethnic cleansing as we call it now, of so many years ago, when so many erred - will that assuage your grief? will that soothe your soul? Must you ask this of an America not without its own blemishes in ethnic cleansing, over a longer term... when the guilty men have long since met their God; met His justice and his mercy; who - if some faiths are to be believed - have been reborn to live out the fruits of their good deeds and their bad... yes, it is wrong for Turks to bring injustice to today and say, we'll only help you if you dropp this call for 'apology, admission' - from whom to whom? equally wrong, to demand this of the Turks who today are blameless of their past... will admission help them too? Should Adam forever apologise to Eve, forever, Eve to Adam, and the serpent, thus, to both? Koha - you the beautiful, who shone behind the counter there at Macy's - may we look into each others' eyes, and drink the future's love?
