Last time the Easter was on April 24th, was 150 years ago.
Although we as Armenians have celebrated Easter since the 3rd Century as a Christian Nation, April 24th was just another date on the calendar for us.
In 1915, atrocities committed by Ottoman Turks, to more then 1.5 million Armenian women, childeren, elderly and men, changed our calendar forever till this day.
And here we are almost a century later as an Armenian Nation, Country and as individuals, still seeking for closure.
And the closure is simple, for the Turks as a Nation and as government to stop denying the Armenian Genocide. Through the past 96 years they have not only denied it, but used their political strength and influence to gag some of the key countries that belong to United Nations.
I heard the statute of limitation of perusing such claim(genocide/holocaust), is a 100 years.
Hmmmm….. Who set that law in place?
Maybe we should be looking into getting rid of that law first, and at the same time start working with the local governments and build it one piece at the time as if it was a puzzle.
Just a thought ….
For the rest, watch our House 2 Home Special Program this Sunday, April 24th at 5:30PM on ARTN / SHANT.
Take care my friends.
Christ Has Risen!
