    In a March 31 article titled "Armenians Wake Up to the Truth: Turkey
    and NATO Behind Ethnic Cleansing in Lattakia and Kessab," Christof
    Lehmann ofnsnbc.com wrote that "Turkey has regularly facilitated
    the entry of armed terrorist groups into the Kessab area in Syria's
    Lattakia province. An Armenian M.P. who visited Syria is calling on
    the world to wake up to the fact that thousands of extremists have
    crossed the Turkish-Syrian border and that missiles were fired from the
    Turkish side of the border. Armenians, who have long been looking at
    NATO as an ally and partner realize that the war on Syria, including
    the renewed ethnic cleansing of Armenian Christians in Syria is part
    of a long-term NATO strategy."

    Mr. Lehmann further reported: "The Turkish MP, Mehmed Ali Ediboglu,
    visited the border crossing at Yayladagi after heavy clashes erupted
    in the region on March 21. Ediboglu stated that the Turkish military
    allows and controls insurgents' moves while they are crossing the
    border to and from Syria. After Turkish F-16s shot down a Syrian
    fighter jet over Kessab last weekend, nsnbc.com spoke with eyewitnesses
    in Kessab, who reported about the presence of Turkish special forces
    operating on Syrian territory in cooperation with the Turkish backed
    terrorist brigades."

    The residents of Kessab call on all Armenians and all of humanity
    to realize that the Erdogan government stands behind the military
    campaign, the ethnic cleansing, and the massacres. The Armenian M.P.

    Arman Sahakyan and Kessab residents call on the UN and governments
    of other countries to take action to protect the people in Lattakia
    province before it is too late.

    In an emotional appeal, conveyed by the Armenian M.P., the Kessab
    residents stressed: "All we want to do, is live. If you ignore this,
    we will all die a horrible death at the hands of these terrorists,
    by being butchered in cold blood like many other Armenians in Aleppo,
    Yaakoubiyeh, Ghnaymiyeh, and around Syria. ... Those who you call
    'rebels' are extremists who came to Syria for jihad with many
    nationalities in it like Afghans, Chechen, Saudis, etc. Kessabtsis
    and all of Syria, saw them and were attacked and killed by them. The
    media can`t hide the truth forever. You can't manipulate the lives
    of people forever. Those who you call 'rebels,' were targeting and
    attacking civilians. Wake up, please."

    Mr. Lehmann underlined: "Armenians, who have long looked at NATO
    as an ally and partner, are waking up to the stark reality that
    core NATO member states, including Turkey, USA, UK and France, hold
    responsibility for the engineering of the war on Syria, which was
    planned long before the first protests erupted in 2011. .. The town
    of Kessab is currently in the hands of the foreign fighters. The
    Syrian Arab Army has launched a military campaign to dislodge the
    mercenaries, which is being complicated by the presence of Turkish
    F-16 fighter jets over the area and Turkish special forces that
    are fighting alongside the foreign fighters and direct artillery,
    missile and tank fire against Syrian Army positions."

    He concluded: The US State Department stated that it was concerned
    about the people in Kessab, Lattakia and everywhere in Syria where
    people are suffering from violence. Meanwhile, the USA provides
    advanced surface to air and anti tank missiles to the insurgents
    and maintains a joint intelligence and command structure with the
    mercenary brigades."

    "I hold the United States, U.K., France, Turkey, Saudi Arabia and Qatar
    fully responsible for the atrocities committed against Christians
    and Armenians in Syria, because they are the ones training, arming,
    and supporting the so-called 'rebels.' The civilized world must reject
    the murderers who are masquerading under the guise of regime change
    to impose their radical rule in Syria. The Syrian people deserve
    a democratic government; however, I fear that the foreign fighters
    who have infiltrated into Syria are far more barbaric than the Assad
    regime. I believe that regime change should come through peaceful
    negotiations, not beheadings and suicide bombings," said today Harut
    Sassounian, Publisher of The California Courier in a written statement
    released to a Turkish media outlet.

    Far from being repentant of the Armenian Genocide, Turkey, under the
    leadership of Prime Minister Erdogan, is again targeting Armenians;
    is again causing their death and dislocation, wrote frontpagemag.com.

    "Armenians are once again refugees due to the Turkish government like
    their ancestors who fled the Armenian Holocaust decades ago. There has
    been no mention on the BBC of NATO's open support for Al Qaeda groups.

    The attack comes in the backdrop of mass rallies against Turkish PM
    Erdogan, who recently banned Twitter," wrote Mimi Al Laham of Land
    Destroyer Report.

    "Armenian Christians are once more fleeing from the aggression of
    Turkey and not surprisingly the Western nations sprouting international
    law at the Russian Federation are dead silent. Indeed, NATO Turkey is
    allowed to occupy Northern Cyprus, cleanse Orthodox Christianity and to
    create Turkish settlements based on their conquest; to enter Northern
    Iraq in order to attack the Kurds when it pleases the elites in Ankara;
    and NATO Turkey is allowed to be a base for international jihadists
    and a zone for supplying military arms to terrorists, sectarians, and
    mercenaries, that fight against the Syrian government. Therefore, the
    recent involvement by Turkey in the cleansing of Armenian Christians in
    Northern Syria appears to be one long continuation of past misdeeds,"
    recently wrote Ramazan Khalidov and Lee Jay Walker in Modern Tokyo
    Times.

    In late 2012, when NATO foreign ministers gave the go-ahead to deploy
    Patriot surface-to-air missiles in Turkey under the pretext "to
    protect from any spillover from the civil war in neighboring Syria,"
    most probably knew that Turkey's Kessab invasion was impending -
    only waiting for an opportune time.

    There is no question that Turkey has been part and parcel of this
    whole conspiracy against Syria. They have moved high-level missiles in
    Turkey to the border with Syria. There are also reports of coordination
    involving the rebel organizations that have been fighting with Syrian
    government through Turkey as well as other countries throughout
    the region," recently underlined Abayomi Azikiwe, editor of the
    Pan-African Newswire.

    It is a [coordinated] policy on the part of NATO [the North Atlantic
    Treaty Organization], which Turkey has been a part of since the early
    1950s. The US, which founded NATO and in many ways still coordinates
    its activity, has been pressuring all of the [NATO] member states
    to take a hostile position against Syria. If it had not been for
    the intervention of anti-war forces within international community,
    the war in Syria would have been much further, stressed Azikiwe.

    According to a March 29 news account in www.lragir.am, Turkey has been
    paying $5,000 for each killed Armenian in Syria. A Syrian Armenian
    survivor recounted: "Turkey is a participant of all this which wants
    to perpetrate the second genocide in Aleppo. Once I went to bring food
    and fuel from Aleppo with another guy. We were warned to leave Aleppo
    with the ID card of a Christian or Muslim Arab. We found a Christian
    Arab who was a little like me, and I took his ID. The car was stopped
    and checked by the rebels several times on the way to the neighboring
    villages of Aleppo. They asked us if there are army soldiers or
    Armenians in the car. We certainly said no. Being asked the same
    question for several times we asked why they ask this question. One
    of the rebels said Turkey promised to pay 1000 dollars for each killed
    army soldier and 5000 dollars for each killed Armenian."

    The Syrian Armenian survivor continued: "The Armenian district is the
    target of snipers. ... The rebels are keen on the Armenian districts.

    What allows for hope is that the Armenians have united at this hard
    time independent from their party affiliation. Armenians abroad send
    money, food. ... Half of Armenians of Aleppo have left the country ...

    hoping to return as soon as everything ends. Most of them prefer to
    stay, noting that Syria is their home, and they will live both good
    days and hard days and will not abandon their homes."

    Apparently unsatisfied with the results of covert Turkish policy of
    spreading death and destruction in Syria, NATO and its allies and
    especially Turkey went public with their 'designs' for the Syrian
    people in general and recently very specifically, Syrian Armenians.

    Now it is a fact that Kessab, one of the last medieval Armenian cities
    in the Mediterranean basin, is being illegally occupied by Turkish
    proxies in Syria.

    No matter how much Ankara and Ottomaniacal Turkish PM Erdogan, and
    his lunatic Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu deny the facts, there are
    ample proofs. This is not the 1915-1923 era. There are now all kinds of
    communication and electronic documentation means. Erdogan's government
    has de facto exposed Turkey to a fresh wave of civil lawsuits arising
    from acts of violence and crime against humanity by terrorists coming
    from the Turkish border.

    To unified Syrian Armenians' credit and well-coordinated armed
    self-defense and neighborhood patrol, Aleppo's several districts --
    Nor Kyugh (New Village in Armenian), Suleymanie, Vilaner and Sheik
    Taha where they live side by side with Arab Christians, as well as
    Muslims, remain free of foreign terrorists' intrusion making the area
    a model arena for successful Pan-Arab Syrian Nationalism.

    However, Kessab's story is such that reportedly no such widespread
    self-defense mechanism has been implemented. No one knows why. Some
    observers think that Syrian and Kessab leadership may have thought
    that the Armenian town maybe an exception to the case. But why think
    that way? Armenian and other Syrians in Kessab should have emulated
    Aleppo's indomitable Syrian Arab nationalist districts.

    Many Armenian activists feel that, in a way, Kessab debacle and
    catastrophe should serve as wake-up call for world Armenians and
    especially Armenian Americans. Under Muslim Brotherhood-inclined
    PM Erdogan, Turkey's proxy invasion of Kessab has already angered a
    sizable segment of the international community.

    It's noteworthy that while most Americans broadly say the U.S. should
    honor its obligation to defend NATO allies from a hypothetical Russian
    threat, they are less likely to say that some individual NATO nations
    are worth defending, according to a late March Huffington Post/You Gov
    poll. The survey found that only 20 percent to 29 percent supported
    defending Turkey. That's troubling for warmonger neo-cons and Turkey's
    cronies in Washington.

    But Kessab will not be liberated merely based on sympathy. It will
    require determination and sacrifice on the part of all affected parties
    and especially world Armenians. No amount of protests and petitions
    can help liberate Armenian town of Kessab (Kasab) if it's not coupled
    with concerted efforts. It is high time that Armenians 'put their
    money where their mouth is' -- in other words MEAN 'business.'

    How can Armenians as a transnational community convince themselves
    that US State Dept., and warmongering US Congressmen like CA-28th
    District Representative Adam Schiff are sincere in their 'condemnation'
    of Turkish barbarism in Kessab when in fact behind closed doors
    they're secretly funding, arming, and training the extremists
    Islamic terrorists in Turkey; and facilitating their invasion of
    Syria via Turkey?

    Armenians should not undervalue their transnational status by resigning
    to be mere protesters and reactors as opposed to being a proactive
    force to be reckoned with. It's about time that Armenians take on a
    more decisive political role to secure the physical defense of their
    kinsmen in Kessab, today; and possibly elsewhere, tomorrow.

    Not one single Armenian should be left to his fate. It's high time
    that Armenians re-implement age-old understanding -- 'All for one,
    one for all!'

    Any force that messes with Armenians must be held accountable
    preemptively. They should not initiate post-crime punishments against
    perpetrators. They should identify the elements before they commit
    another crime against humanity. Remember the yea-sayers and naysayers
    during the Artsakh liberation war?

    When the Syrian crisis erupted and degenerated into full scale
    international terrorist invasion four years ago, not one single
    Armenian organization came forward with the premonition that one day
    Kessab would become target of renewed anti-Armenian genocidal Turkish
    state policy.

    The reason Kessab survived as an Armenian town is because it ended up
    on the Syrian side as a result of French partitioning and bartering
    others' lands in secret dealings with the 1930's Kemalist Turkey.

    To the credit of hospitable Middle Eastern countries and especially
    Syria and Lebanon, Kessab became one of three independent Armenian
    municipalities in the entire region of Middle East. The other two
    are Ainjar, Lebanon and Bourj Hammoud, Lebanon.

    Armenians shall remember the lessons learned from the 1895
    Turkish-executed Hamidian genocide against Armenians causing the
    loss of 300,000 innocent lives; the Turkish-executed Adana ethnic
    cleansing against Armenians causing the loss of 30,000 innocent lives;
    culminating with the 1915-1923 much larger-scale Turkish-executed
    Armenian Genocide causing a) loss of one and one half million innocent
    victims; b) massive loss of ancestral homelands in Western Armenia
    and Armenian Cilicia of which last remnant has been Kessab.

    It's only fair that NATO Turkey's 2nd genocide against Armenians
    should engender the revival of the 2nd Armenian Foreign Legion.
