Another coyote under the sheep’s wool: TANER AKCAM IS NOT TURKISH: HE IS A
FULL BLOODED ARMENIAN!
His great grandfather Agopian was an Armenian landlord in Village of Valei
near Armenia and Georgia border town of Ahalkeleki. When Russian army
invaded Georgia, he changed his name to Hasan and pretended he was a
Turkish Muslim to avoid prosecution, but lost his life during a raid.
His Armenian grandfather was also camouflaged with a Turkish name Eyup
escaped to Ardahan with his Georgian wife blending with the fleeing Turks
however, soon after he started working for Armenian Tashnaq guerillas as an
informant and guide that cost thousands of Turkish and Kurdish refugees
lives in bloody massacres. When the First World War ended with Turks
gaining the upper hand in the region and resulting the Armenian guerillas
scattered all over the world, Eyup’s real identity was finally unmasked.
Bereaving Turks lynched him for his treason at the village square in 1928.
His Armenian father also Turkish named Dursun who was born in 1927 and had
Taner Akcam born in the village of Ölçek in 1953. They moved to capital
city of Turkey; Ankara shortly after.
Taner Akcam attended ODTU (Middle East Technical University) and
immediately after joined to a Marxist-Leninist Communist terrorist cell,
all the while hiding his real identity as an Armenian extremist. His cell
mates were a strange mix of ultra-left and ultra-right extremists who had
no other purpose than polarizing the nation and weakening the state ripe
for a collapse so they could materialize their benefactors’ wishes. When
the terrorist activities of his cell became clear, he was arrested in 1976
and sentenced to 9 years in prison where a year later he managed to escape
to Germany and was granted political asylum. To name a few, similar acts of
violence by these groups at that time were the fatal ambush of a prominent
newspaper editor Abdi Ipekci in 1971. His assasin Mehmet Ali Agca who also
got caught but broke off the jail same year resurfaced in Rome a few years
later with the assassination attempt of Pope John Paul in 1981.
Contrary to Armenian Photo shopping of Taner Akcam as a “Famous Turkish
Historian” He is neither Turkish nor historian but an Armenian
terrorist hot air balloon. His educational background is in Social Studies
and his degree is just as dubious due to his “collaboration” with the BND
(German Secret Service). Incidentally, it is no longer a secret that
Germany has an incentive in distracting the worlds' attention from the
Holocaust and could use a good Genocide story to take away the heat from
them.
This is the latest trend by the cunning Armenian diaspora to show Turkish
named Armenian extremists such as Taner Akcam and Ugur Ungor as respected
Turkish intellectuals who are spearheading a regretful dialog towards
recognizing their 100 year old allegation of genocide within the Turkish
community. Just like every other trick they tried and failed in this will
only prove their deceptive common trait but nothing else.
We know a lot more about this charlatan and that deceptive minds behind him
are trying to use him as a Trojan horse. In reality, he is just another bad
seed ass in footsteps of his equally deranged forefathers.
Now you too know the rest of the story…

"Worlds Apart" Stallin' history? Ft. Stephen Cohen
Brutal monster, tyrant and sadist or moderniser, victor and reformer - it's hard to find a more controversial figure in Russian history than Joseph Stalin. And while ...
Stalin was not a monster and Stephen Cohen is a right-winger, like most of
the political commentators of the Russia Today News team. Specially Peter
Lavelle, who is a hardcore anti-communist
Communism=total state central planning=the goal justifies the means=the central plan justifies killing kulaks/peasants=mass killings always in central planning(Mao, Stalin, Hitler).Even Karl Marx said: "Power is corrupting". Applied to the Polit bureau's, this insight proves total-central planning is a failure, because it turns communist leaders into butchers of massses.And this is something only Zionists would like todo.The final solution for a free & prosperous society is hybrid: central planning (30-50% GDP) versus truly free markets (individual liberty and private property, (50-70% GDP)). And public banking, interest free money creation by the state.
I think Stephen Cohen is a brilliant man with a deep perception of Stalin
and the history of his time. But, the Soviet era did not end with Stalin.
Also, oppressors are not all victims, some are willing conspirators.
Stalin's crimes cannot be denied. As indeed cannot be denied the crimes of
others, Hitler and his allies. But one fact we may have to live with is
that without Stalin it is unlikely Russia would have defeated Hitler.
Stephen Cohen knows this as he presents a very balanced view of events as
shown in this programme.
+leboeuf sage What personal qualities of Stalin, have made Russia defeat Hitler? No one else could have done it? As Cohen said, his delusional, control-freak mindset, had him murder the best of his Russian military men, before the War started.No, Stalin was no Putin. Stalin thought he was GOD like any central-planner, proving the psychopath.
