German Federal Parliament. 15th term o f office Printed matter 15/5689 / 15.06.2005 Proposal by the parliamentary groups: SPD, CDU/CSU, BUN DNIS 90/D IE GRUNEN and FDP (An excerpt containing the most important - and mostly grotesque - formulations.) Remembrance and commemoration o f the expulsions and massacres committed against the Armenians in 1915: Gennany must make a contribution to reconciliation between the Turks and the Armenians. It is proposed that the Bundestag approves the following: The German Federal Parliament bows its head to the memory o f the victims o f violence, murder and expulsion lost by the Armenian people before and during the First World War. It deplores the deeds o f the Young Turk gov ernment o f the Ottoman Empire that led to the almost complete extermination o f the Armenians in Anatolia. It also regrets the shameful role o f the German Reich which in spite o f having been informed many times over o f the organized expulsion and extermination o f Armenians did not make one single attempt to stop the atrocities. It is noble - even so late in the day - to bow one's head in memory o f the Armenian victims. What the author o f this pamphlet (it is no more than that) overlooks (or consciously fails to mention) is the fact that in the course o f a civil war which was provoked by the Armenians, the losses incurred by the helpless Muslim population were many times greater than those suffered by the Armenians. Nobody wastes a thought on the Muslims who lost their lives. Is there not a single member o f the German Federal Parliament who has read Justin M cCarthy's book "Muslims and Minorities "? I f not, is this perhaps because the book is only published in English? Where blind and naked Ignorance Delivers brawling judgments, unashamed, On all things all day long. A MASTERPIECE OF IGNORANCE A lfred Lord Tennyson (1 8 0 9 -1 8 9 2 ) Johannes Lepsius (* 1858 - f 1926) ARM ENIA: "A German pastor and the genocide He was an eye-witness of the genocide committed against the Armenians. His was the voice of conscience while other Europeans were silent. A num ber of peo ple in Potsdam now wish to give him the honour he is due - but there is resistance ..." HE WAS NOT. HE WAS A SH A M ELESS M ANIPULA TO R WHO HAD N EV ER SE T HIS FO O T IN THE EA STERN REGIO N S AND HE FALSIFICATED REPO R TS AND DOCUM EN TS EN M A SS.. "In order to expose the murders, the pastor disguises him self as a carpet-dealer. During his travels through the Armenian areas he transcribes eye-witness reports and collects statistics. He combines these with his personal thoughts and polemic against the perpetrators to make up the documentation Armenien und Europa.." An eye-witness?? This man had never left Constantinople/Istanbul; all what he reported came from Armenian sources, similar to the reports which Morgenthau had received from his Armenian dragomans. 139
These are the essential points in the Lepsius legend, never had left Constantinople which has hardly to do with reality and truth. What can be found under the Internet address "chrismon - ARMENIEN Ein deutscher Pfarrer und der Genozid" is a classic example o f the falsification and manipulation o f historical fact, but this was obviously the source used by the authors o f the parliamentary’ proposal. Lepsius was him self never witness to a single act o f violence. Everything he wrote or reported he had from the lips o f his Armenian informants, ju st as was the case with Morgenthau, the Ambassador o f the United States. The short section " ... the pastor as carpet-dealer” gives the truth away, which is that his documentation is only composed o f "eyewitness reports ... personal thoughts”. A document in the style o f Aram Andonian, whose falsifications were later to cost Talaat Pascha and subsequently many others their lives. The "chrismon" website gives the following commentary on the trial o f Techlirian, Talaat's murderer: "The report o f Lepsius contributes to the assassin's acquittal" That is the point where the present- day worldwide terror network took root. With this act o f commemoration the German Bundestag pays tribute to the efforts o f all those Germans and Turks who, in difficult circumstances and against the resistance o f their respective Governments, acted to save Armenian women, men, and children. A particular intention is to rescue from oblivion the work o f Dr Johannes Lepsius, who fought energetically and effectively for the survival o f the Armenian people, and to use the memory o f his work as a means o f improving relations between the Armenian, German, and Turkish peoples. The author o f this piece o f writing may well be unaware that Pastor Lepsius was a cunning trickster, as is demonstrated by many pieces o f evidence which are on the Internet fo r anyone to read who wishes. The author was clearly also unaware that Lepsius never spent any time in the crisis-stricken areas. His source was the US Ambassador Morgenthau, who never set foot over the boundaries o f the city o f Istanbul and received his information exclusively from his Armenian interpreters. Add to these the incredibly cleverly written book by Aram Andonian and you have the three traps which even as clever a man as Franz Werfel fe ll into when he wrote his masterpiece "The Forty Days o f Musa Dagh", which is almost certainly the source from which the members o f 140 the German Bundestag derives their "knowledge" o f the matter. But research into and assessment o f these historical events is also o f immediate significance for our own day, when the normalization o f relations between the Republic o f Turkey and the Republic o f Armenia is o f particular importance for the future o f the whole region. It is urgent ly necessary that confidence-building measures, in the sense o f the word as used in the principles o f the OSCE. The opening o f the border to Turkey, for instance, could contribute to the termination o f Armenia's isolation and to the resumption o f diplomatic relations. At this point the arguments presented by the author or authors reach the culminating point o f their at all times considerable ignorance. Anyone can see from a glance at the map that the Republic o f Hayastan (Armenia) is not subject to any "isolation". The borders to Georgia (in the direction o f the Black Sea) and to Iran to the south are quite open. The authors o f this pamphlet are clearly also unaware o f Armenia's ill will towards Turkey (non-renew- al o f the Treaty o f Gumru, resulting in the maintaining o f positively absurd territorial claims; the inclusion in Hayastan's national coat o f arms o f Mount Ararat, which is clearly on Turkish national territory), as are the individuals most closely associated with the proposal, namely Muntefering, Merkel, Goring, and Gerhardt. It is the responsibility o f our educational policy to con tribute to ensuring that research into and assessment of the expulsion and extermination o f the Armenians is car ried out as part o f the work on the history o f ethnic con flicts in the twentieth century. Would it not be better to spare a little time to talk about the Benes Decrees and to commemorate the mass murder and expulsion o f Sudeten Germans? And yet no steps are taken in this direction. The Czech Republic was admitted to the EU in spite o f the continued validity o f the Benes Decrees, which is a dear case o f one rule fo r the rich and one rule fo r the poor. With respect to Turkey, Germany plays the judge without knowing the facts; with respect to the Czech lands, nothing is said even though everyone knows the facts. Is that pragmatism? Or it is perhaps plain injustice?
