My "alleged masterpiece," as Harut Sassounian described my sarcastic letter to an American newspaper, made an editorial in USA Armenian Life Magazine , Hye Kiank Armenian Weekly on 6 January 2006, where Appo Jabarian, the publisher, wrote: ![]() QUOTE In their decades-long desperate attempts to obstruct
justice sought by the heirs of the 1.5 million victims of the Armenian Genocide, the denialist Turkish officialdom and its cronies in Israel and USA have come up with an initial “invention”: rewriting history. When the foundations of the denialists’ “invention” proved to be very shaky, the fathers of this ill-fated invention came up yet with a new “invention”: they started employing the word “alleged”, “allegations”. So, every time a denialist intends to attempt to discredit the veracity of the Genocide, he/she resorts to profusely using the word “alleged” or “allegation”. Probably, the most popular term among the denialit Turks is the term “alleged Armenian Genocide” or “Armenian allegations that a genocide has occured in 1915”. Every international act of recognition of the Armenian Genocide drives the denialist Turk’s or his cronie’s blood pressure to even higher degree. And now, decades later, when the momentum of international recognition is picking up steam, the favorite anti-blood pressure “allegation” or “alleged” tablets have proven to be very popular among the so-called Turkish nationalists, and their cronies in the West. On Monday January 2, 2006, The Jewish Advocate of Boston, MA broke new record in its attempt to please the Turkish denialists. The Advocate has published a photo showing skulls and living individuals accompanied by the following caption: “A historical photo of alleged victims of the Armenian genocide.” Soon after the publication of the anti-Armenian biased photo and the article, Simon Maghakyan, a fellow member of Yahoo!ArmenianGroup wrote: “I read your ‘alleged’ article in the ‘alleged’ Jewish Advocate about the ‘alleged’ Armenian genocide at the ‘alleged’ website http://www.thejewishadvocate.com/this_week...ontent_id=689.” Maghakyan continued: “The ‘alleged’ photo of the ‘alleged’ victims of the ‘alleged’ Armenian genocide you posted, shows the ‘alleged’ Armenians and some ‘alleged’ Armenian skulls of ‘alleged’ Urfa, where my ‘alleged’ grandparents were ‘allegedly’ murdered during the ‘alleged’ WWI. My ‘alleged’ great-grandfather’s ‘alleged’ name was Gevork Maghakyan, and he was ‘allegedly’ shot in the ‘alleged’ Armenian cathedral of ‘alleged’ St. Mary, where many ‘alleged’ Armenians, including my other ‘alleged’ relatives, were ‘allegedly’ burnt alive.” Maghakyan concluded: “Happy ‘Alleged’ New Year to you and thank you for calling my family members ‘alleged’ victims. I hope it makes you feel special and unique! With ‘alleged’ best wishes, ‘Alleged’ Simon Maghakyan from ‘alleged’ Littleton, Colorado, USA” Upon reading Maghakyan’s hilarious comments, Harut Sassounian, another fellow member of Yahoo!ArmenianGroup, and long-time-contributor to USA Armenian Life, wrote: “Dear ‘alleged’ Simon, Your ‘alleged’ letter to the ‘alleged’ editor of the ‘alleged’ Jewish Advocate is an ‘alleged’ masterpiece!” Sassounian signed: “‘Allegedly’, Harut Sassounian.” Another fellow member Prof. Dennis Papazian wrote: “Good show Simon, we have to mock them.” This writer forwarded the following: “Dear Simon, That’s the way to go with these ‘allegation’-minded ‘allegedly’ existing individuals, and governments.” He continued: “Both my ‘alleged’ paternal and maternal grandparents were ‘allegedly’ orphaned during the ‘alleged’ Armenian Genocide of 1915-23. “ He added: “Collectively, they have ‘allegedly’ lost over 85 relatives, including their parents, uncles, aunts, grandparents. They were ‘allegedly’ uprooted from Sis, capital of Cilicia, Western Armenia.” He concluded: “Putting all ‘allegations’ aside, here is my wish to you all. I shall repeat this wish until it materializes. If it doesn’t materialize during my generation, I’d like to invite the upcoming generation(s) to repeat it until it eventually materializes: See you and your loved ones next year in Western Armenia!” He signed: “ ‘Allegedly’ existing in Glendale, CA USA, Appo Jabarian.”
