Thus, Armenian Studies are essentially a national civilizational and state-building discipline.

The ISIS has sought to justify destruction of Assyrian ancient monuments in Northern Iraq by Islamic norms. The International community's reaction was predictable: the United Nations' cultural agency labeled those actions as a war crime, calling the world to "respond to this criminal chaos that destroy culture" and "put an end to this catastrophe".

Vahram Hovyan
In self-organizing the Diaspora the organizational entities are of vital importance, as they act as a live organism through which Diaspora carries out its activities. In this respect, it appears important to form a pan-national organization as an institution for self-organizing the entire Diaspora, which would be unlike the community structures that are institutions for self-organization of specific communities in Diaspora.

30.10.2014 FOR ANKARA, IS MASSACRE A POLICY OPTION?
by Thierry Meyssan
Is the new alliance between Turkey and France concerned only with economic issues, to wit entry into the European Union, or is it purely political? In this case, must Paris provide cover for Ankara whatever the policy? Does this support go as far as genocide?
