Today, I wish to share with you a letter from a friend of mine addressed to President Obama. Obviously, I endorse it and like her style...

Dear Mr. Obama ,
Our perrenial victim friends, the Armenians have a knack of starting the story in the middle and finishing in the middle. They never tell neither the beginning nor the end of this story. Turkish Government's attemp to tell to story referring to the historians, pages of pages of documents of which nobody cares to read bores the hell out of me. It sounds like somebody guilty trying to defend himself. Don't you think? So I have decided to summarize it for you once and for all.
Our Armenian friends were considered our brothers..They were in the Ottoman Parliement, They were the governors of towns like Istanbul. And when our grandfathers went to war, they asked their Armenian neighbors to take care of their families. I am writing these facts so that you can get the grasp of the back ground relationship of two communities. ..
Ottoman Empire entered the war. They came from all over the world like Piranhas, Mr. Obama, just to get a piece of us. At this point our brothers the Armenians turned Terrorists with the help of the French and the Russians, killed, burned and pillaged the towns in the Eastern Turkey. Now Armenians, the perrenial victims never mention this part... Somehow they never mention. Do you know that they have killed 150.000 people within one night? The Ottoman Government have sent the
army to crush this terrorist movement. Now Mr. Obama you do relate to this don't you? Couple of terrorist maniacs have hit the twin towers and killed 3000 people and you have used your right to defend your country and attacked another country which had nothing to do with this act. But Hey !..Your president ,then ,said that they had something to do with this heinous act and off you went to Iraq...The end result 1.500.000 Iraqis got killed...The right to defend one's country... Mr. Obama...Ask Israel, they will agree with me...Everyone has a right to defent themselves when they are under attack from a Terrorist group...Inside or Outside..
OK...So far...So good? Ottoman Army went a bit to strong, I agree , and the region had Kurdish tribes and these guys are fierce...They have these rules of honour killing which will make "Friday the 13" a comedy movie....A cross over between Seinfeld and I love Lucy....These people were living there along with the Armenians... You go figure...Yes a Rumpus happened...I agree...But wait...
The Ottoman Parliament brought the responsables from the army who has caused this havoc and condemned them to death...Do you know Mr. Obama that on the death warrant signed by the Ottoman Parliament there were 7 Armenian Ministers in the Parliament and the Governor of Istanbul was an Armenian ?...In other words nothing happened in the Western Turkey...Now I ask you? What kind of Genocide is this?
By the way...If you look deep into the smoke screen you will see a region called "Karabagh" which is occupied by Armenia...Are these two incidents related? Or am I watching too much "CSI Miami"...?
Congragulations to you and your family...And I hope that you will leave the Political lobbists in the Lobby and don't let them in the Oval Office...You look like a fair and intelligent man Mr. Obama...
