Shame on you for spreading falsehood and lies!

Comment on 99 years after the genocide and the wounds are still fresh by British CPTR http://coveringreligion.org/2014/05/12/99-years-after-the-genocide-and-the-wounds-are-still-fresh-how-armenians-in-the-holy-land-reconcile-their-suffering-with-israels-lack-of-recognition/#comment-1893 Tue, 13 May 2014 03:40:04 +0000 http://coveringreligion.org/?p=1266#comment-1893 This article sounds as if there was nothing happening, lands were happily basking in peace and joyful days abundant and suddenly, for no reason, Armenians were finding themselves in all sorts of difficulties in the thick of World War 1 .. for no reason !!??!! how shamefully distorted the picture is -sadly- .. to start with 536,000 innocent and defenceless Turks were murdered in cold blood and in inhumane conditions by the Armenians gangs, traitors, brigands and soldiers; who have committed treachery in a grand manner. They have tried to establish a state from the ruins of Ottoman Empire, sided with Russia who were fighting the Ottomans, back stabbed their own people (Turks and Armenians were Ottoman citizens) and still claim they were so innocent that there was an Armenian genocide. The scale of deception is grandessimo. There was a Jewish Holocaust but there was no Armenian Genocide. There were not even 1.5m Armenians to kill in Eastern Anatolia. Even if there were and even if they were all killed then how come there are 7m+ Armenians living around the world today.. Humanity demands fairness not fabrications of sorts. In any event, Armenians should not dilute the pain and suffering of the Jewish Holocaust.

Comment on A Rally in Solidarity: Ultra-Orthodox Jews in New York City by Yehuda Toledano http://coveringreligion.org/2014/03/17/new-york-ultra-orthodox-rally-against-the-israeli-draft-2/#comment-924 Sun, 06 Apr 2014 13:55:45 +0000 http://coveringreligion.org/?p=851#comment-924 Well, just one little mistake (you know, I love to critic people that I appreciate and care for). The mistake is that it wasn’t a demonstration neither a protest march. If you interested to know my opinion I will be more than happy to explain myself. If you want to talk on Skype and have time (nowadays nobody has this precious commodity; a paradox with all technology advances that were supposed to let us some free time, well this is another issue). My Skype name is: yehuda.toledano, no big letter, no spaces, just the dot.

Comment on Who We Are by Benedict Beattie http://coveringreligion.org/who-we-are/#comment-775 Thu, 13 Mar 2014 07:39:48 +0000 http://coveringreligion.org/?page_id=9#comment-775 Hello,
What an interesting roster of folks. I am an undergrad religious studies student at the University of Victoria in Western Canada, I was directed here from a journalist by the name of Raphael Ahren after I had sent him a response to one of his articles I did for a class. This is a very cool site. I have been interested in journalism, and I wonder if there is any chance I could get connected with people here, as it seems like there could be many great contacts to have here. Shot in the wind.

Thanks!

Benedict
