Dostlar,

Birgun donup dolasip gelecegi nokta buydu…

Eger bu Ermeni yasasi Sacramento’da gecerse Turkiye ve Azerbaycan ile ticaret yapan firmalar suclu sayilacak ve ceza odeyecek. Buyurun bakalim.  Yillar suren sessizligimize, “Bana ne canim, baskalari yapsin” zihniyetine bicilen aci bir fiatdir bu.

Asagida Karahan Mete’nin yazdigi ilk ve tek mektup. Bu is birkac kisinin isi degil, butun toplumun isi.  Hatta, Turkiye’mizin de isi.

Neye uzuluyorum en cok biliyor musunuz?

Su satirlari yazdigim anda Kaliforniya’nin en buyuk Turk Festivali’nin acilisinin yapilmasina 3 gun kalmis. Costa Mesa’daki Orange County Fair alanina duzinelerce Turk marangoz, asci-sef, ve is adami gelmis. Kaliforniya otelleri Turk dolu.  Hepsi ticareti nasil patlatiriz diye umut ve heyecan dolu dolu gelmisler.  Halbuki Sacramento’daki bir Ermeni “kardesimiz” onlar icin, bizler icin, hepimiz icin daragaclarini hazirliyor, hem de benim kesemden verdigim vergilerimle!

Bizim toplum ise masallah misil misil uykuya devam.

Allah rahat uykular versin.

Baska ne denir?

AB 961***

California Assembly member Kerkorian introduced bill AB 961.

Simple and plain evaluation for AB 961 is: the bill basically forbids the company for betting on California government contracts if they are doing business with countries that proved or assumed to be contributed to holocaust, genocide or atrocity. In his definition, every country in the world can be accused of contributed atrocity and be barred from California government contracts. His first line of the accused countries are Germany, Italy, Austria, France, Pollen, Russia, Cambodia, Rwanda, Serbia, Turkey etc.

While United States is struggling with huge trade deficits that cannot be sustained for a long period of time, introducing such a very poorly prepared bill will be very destructive for the US economy.

About the US / Turkish trade relation;

  • US have trade surplus with Turkey.
  • Turkey imports from US is twice as much its export in US
  • US is Turkey’s second largest trade partner after the EU
  • Turkey buys everything from US, from potato chips to computer chips.
  • From seeds to agricultural products.
  • Turkey imports large amounts of grain, rice, corn and others
  • Turkey imports machinery parts and buys engineering and consulting services.
  • Turkey buys almost all the military equipments and parts from US
  • Turkey buys commercial and military aircraft and parts from US.
  • Some of the large utility companies involved for building energy power-plant in Turkey
  • Tourism industries rapidly growing between two countries. US hotel chains are operating hotels and resorts in Turkey.
  • Some of the California satellite-launching companies are negotiating with Turkey for getting multimillion dollar contracts.

All these companies and others that are doing profitable business with Turkey will be barred from California Government contracts according to AB 961. This same unethical policy will be applied to countries stated in this bill (Germany, Italy, Austria, France, Pollen, Russia, Cambodia, Rwanda, Serbia, Turkey etc.).

AB 961 is written so poorly that it will scrutinize any business and it will create out-of-control lawsuits that might cost hundreds of millions of dollars from US Companies and strain their competitiveness. In addition, AB 961 will create massive bureaucracy and position state department to undertake imposable tasks.

At a time when all the trade organizations, Federal and state agencies are working diligently trying to improve US trade, it is hard to understand a lawmaker to take such drastic and unnecessary steps to cause distress in US economy.

While this bill is an insult to these countries, they can take their businesses somewhere else (another country or States). AB 961 does nothing on these countries stated in this bill but will instead harm the US and California economy. Eventually, this bill will widen US trade deficits and cost US taxpayer millions of dollars, cause job losses and increase unemployment….

In addition, we all support human rights, democracy and justice, and this bill does not contribute to world human rights, democracy or justice. On the contrary, this bill creates an unjust state of affairs for our own US Companies to compete in the world market.

Furthermore, the AB 961 subject matter is an international state of affair. State should not be interfering or passing laws that contradict United States international affairs.

We respectfully ask you to take all the necessary steps to prevent this destructive act against US companies and prevent devastation in US and California economy.

Respectfully yours,

Karahan Mete

    Sayın Ergun Kırlıkovalı’ya

    Sayın Kırlıkovalı, burda serzenişlerinizi okudum. Şaşırmadım. Nedeni de gayet basit.

    Nerdeyse son 5 yıldan beri Türkiye’de (gayet beceriksiz bile olsa) Türkiye aleyhtarı politikalara muhalefet eden her türlü basın-yayın kuruluşları ve sivil toplum örgütleri neredeyse tamamen tasfiye edildi.
    Elinizin altında internet var. Lütfen bakarmısın Türkiye2deki önde gelen medya kuruluşlarında kimlerin yaptığı haberler ve yorumlar sürekli yayınlanıyor diye !

    Türk Tarih Kurum ve Atatürk Araştırma Merkezi gibi kurumlardaki kadro değişikliğinden sonra en son ne zaman bu kuruluşların Ermeni politikalarına karşı müdahil olduğuna şahit oldunuz?

    Sayın Kırlıkovalı.

    Eğer oralarda cemaatlerden tanıdıklarınız varsa lütfen iletin, hem Türkiye’de Ermeni aktiviteleri hakkında ve hemde Türkiye’de yıllardan beri Ermeni iddialarına karşı çalışan insanlardan demeç alsınlar.

    Kimi bıraktınız Türkiye’de muhalefet edecek.?

    Mr. Kirliovali,

    There is a very interesting review of Bishop Balakian’s autobiography of the Genocide, Armenian Golgotha, published today in New Republic. The review was originally published in nextbook by Adam Kirsch; asking whether the Bishop was the Primo Levi of the Armenian Genocide. He was arrested 24 April 1915, qand escaped murder virtually all the others suffered.

    Your name belongs in the comments to this review, because you routinely use the same dehumanizing Genocidal language Hitler, Goebbels, Sakir and Nazim used.

    We await your self-expposure:

    “Stand by for a series of racist posts by Ergun Kirlikovali, who has darkened the pages of this and countless other publications before. Mr. Kirlikovali is the head of Turkish American organizations who routinely today describe Armenians of today and 1915 in the same way Nazis discussed those they murdered: vermin, rats, backstabbers, money-worshippers, liars. The Genocide continues, in the final phase of vicious denial politics. Unfortunately, former Members of Congress Livingstone, Solarz and Gebhardt [who once endorsed a Genocide Resolution] have become paid foreign lobbyists for Turkey. Gephardt is said to be building a beautiful new Home in Sonoma, California wine country with money the Turkish government pays him to ridicule the Armenian dead of 1915 and deny the Genocide. And the Turkish government has recently required all 8 year olds in public and private schools to watch a film made by the military saying Armenians killed millions of Turks, and ate the bones of Turkish children, a new twist on the Christian blood libel that Jews made matzoh with Christian children’s blood. Google ‘Sari Gelin’ to see about it. This is the ugly face of denialism, 94 years after the Genocide of Armenians, Greeks and Assyrians.”

    JDA who obsessively follows me around the blog and leaves under fabricated names convoluted and deceptive messages after any and every comment I make is a rather disturbed individual. Despite my many efforts, he did not reveal his identity. He feels at ease with issuing lies one after the other behind the safety of fake names. I have received many threats from him and others like him and evenalerted the FBI onto them: if something happens to me, chase this guy who calls himself jda, and at other times j, jd, juiff, pierre, hasan, burcu, el mexicano, bob from the UK, bill from canada, norman israel, and about 1000 other names. You guessed it: he is a professional liar. That is why I nicknamed him “Pinocchian”. But whe I found out that he actually was boasting how great his lies were, then I finally smelled the rat in araRAT. The reason we will never delete his messages is because he gives us an opportunity to educate our youth as to the conniving, deceiving, backstabbing nature of the Armenian falsifiers. This rat in araRAT is an excellent example of what a human being should not behave like. It is OK if you ignore him, but note the hatred, vengefullness, and evil in him.
