TRANSLATION OF A RECENT CALL DISTRIBUTED TO THE MILLIONS OF ISLAM

JULY 1915

"Kill them: God will punish them in your hand and put them to shame; and ye
will overcome them. He will rejoice the hearts of believers, and take away
the wrath from the hearts unbelievers." (Text of the Koran.)

Oh ye faithful! Although we are summoning you to a jihad, where is your
army? What do you wait for? The foe has summoned you on all sides with fire.
See the House of God (Mecca), the point toward which all Islam turns; behold
the sacred tomb of Mohammed, the object of the gaze of the faithful. Have
you considered these matters? By your inaction and silence the enemy is
gaining strength. What if these two sacred places should be taken?...

How often have the savage Russians, the traitorous English, the Frenchmen,
born of empire parentage yet proud in their baseness, planted their unclean
flags upon your pure and holy mountains? How often have they seized you by
your lifeless, spiritless, feet and hands, and rolled you in the mire? Oh,
you poor, helpless people of India, of the Oxus and of the Orphan islands of
Tunis, and you wretched tribes of Turkey ! Oh, Bokhara and Turkestan, dying
under the bloody hand of Russia ! Oh you falling mosques, overturned
pulpits, crumbling minarets, the ornaments of the country, from which the
voice of God has sounded forth; but where the proclamation of the Unity,
which once made the mountains to tremble, is now heard only in whispers!

Go Forth, ye Moslems, into the places of blood and groans: there see the
ruined countries of Islam, and learn a lesson. Look about you: every day the
edifice erected by Islam is being torn down stone by stone. Aside from the
empire of Turkey, is there any prop left to Islam?

Oh ye people of the Unity! Read your history ! Look at the despise graves of
your kings ! If you desire honor and glory, heurism and damsels, behold all
are awaiting you. Eternal joys, the shade of green trees, heurism, and
angels are in the grasp of your sword. Think of these. But if you rather
think of earthly things, know that weakness, dishonor, and oppression will
surround you in this world like a ring of fire, and in the next world you
will be cast out to live in torments. For if you throw down your arms and
leave the battlefield you will bring upon your heads bitter anguish. Do you
not understand this? You have become slaves of the people of the Cross. . .
..

Behold ! God has bestowed upon you a greater favor. The tears of the
Faithful for centuries past are bearing fruit. Your enemies are trembling
under your hand. Attack them from every side. Whenever you meet them, kill
them. Quicken the failing proclamation of the Unity by the fire of your
rifles and cannon, and by the blows of your swords and knives. Cause the
minarets and mountains and wildernesses to resound once more with the cry,
"Allah! Allah!"

Jihad! Jihad! Oh, Moslems, blow the trumpet everywhere, of people of the
Unity. The great God is ordering you to fight with your foes everywhere. God
will put them to shame in your hands; He will give you the victory; He will
quench the fire of their hate. Do not forget. God has purchased the souls
and property of the faithful. In exchange, he gives you the heurism and
damsels of heaven.

A hard copy of this article or hundreds of others from the time of the
Armenian Genocide can be found in The Armenian Genocide: News Accounts From
The American Press: 1915-1922

As we say in Turkish Ass-Cur= Git gonugnu kumda oynat.

In 1915 there was no Republic of Turkey which was only established in 1923.

Try another one. Why don't you emigrate to Armenia? They'll love to have you
and then kill you for what you did to the Armenians just before, during and
after WW1.

They have no Kurdish problem in Armenia now because they have cleansed
Armenia of Kurds.

But then you don't mind what ass you lick, do you? It does not matter so
long as it is ass.
