Armenia, My Love (recent motion picture)

(1/1)

TomSea:
Need it need a rating for some violence, not too much.



Not bad, I think a few of the actors in parts, do look "amateurish", I think this was put together largely by the American Armenian community, many who are in Southern California. Towards the end of the movie, modern-day film of the Armenian Holocaust Memorial. Be forewarned, while enjoyable, this does not appear to be made on some sort of multi-million dollar budget out of Hollywood.

truth_seeker:
By far my father's favorite business partner over his lifetime,, was an Armenian American man.

The OC, SoCal

My father was most junior, in a partnership of four.

Together and separately they built into the thousands of fine homes.

1-"Turkey is 99% Muslim," Turks have always boasted to say it. This information is partially correct. 1914 Ottoman census in the table below. As you can see in this table, the Armenian genocide has not yet taken place.

It appears from that demographic map, there were sizeable populations of Greeks and Armenians pre-genocide, like the tweet says.

----------------------------------
Some perspective.
Obviously there were large Greek and Christian populations
present, since they created that culture/society.
* The area was initially a Greek colony around 600 BC.
* Then it became a Roman Province w/the rise of their Empire.
* W/the fall of Rome around 500 AD, it became Byzantium.
* Over the next 10 centuries it was the Eastern Roman Empire.
* Then around  1450 the Ottomans emerged as warriors of Islam.
By 1914, Ottoman leadership as well as that nation/state was in
an advanced state of emotional decline, leading to the criminal
decision by Sultan Mehmed V to exterminate the Armenians.
Their paranoid argument was that the Armenian Christians had
conspired w/the Russian Orthodox Clergy and Military to
overthrow the Ottomans.
The legacy of Muslim rule is one of death and destruction!
