The front page of East Oregonian, published on September 16, 1922, constitutes a highly valuable historical journalistic document, as it directly reports on the events associated with Smyrna Catastrophe, explicitly referring to the mass killings and large-scale displacement of Greeks and Armenians. The headline, which cites a significant number of victims, reflects an early international awareness of the scale of the humanitarian disaster, based on reports from major news agencies, thereby granting it credibility within its contemporary context.

From an academic perspective, this newspaper represents a primary source written at the moment of the event, illustrating how Western media framed the suffering of the region’s peoples. The tragedy was not confined to a single group, but rather unfolded within a broader context of collective violence preceded by years of persecution and destruction, including what the Arameans endured during Sayfo in the time of the First World War. The significance of this document lies not only in what it explicitly states, but also in what it implicitly reveals about the historical continuity of violence.

Christopher Hitchens: ”In 1786, when the United States was barely a country, it was having its sailors taken as slaves by the Barbary states, the states of the Ottoman Empire and North Africa. Tripoli, shores of Tripoli. Ships stopped, its crews carried off into slavery. We estimate 1.5 million European and American slaves taken between 1750 and 1815.

Jefferson and Adams went to their ambassador in London and said, why do you do this to us? The United States has never had a quarrel with the Muslim world of any kind. We weren't in the crusades. We weren't at war with Spain. Why do you do this to our people and our ships? Why do you plunder and enslave our people? The ambassador said very plainly, Mr. Abdul Rahman said, because the Quran gives us permission to do so, because you are infidels, and that's our answer. Jefferson said, well, in that case, I will send a navy which will crush your state, which he did.

Islamic fundamentalism is not created by American democracy. It's a lie to say so. It's a masochistic lie, and it excuses those who are the real criminals, and blames us for the attacks made upon us.”

I spent Christmas thinking about Greco-Bactrian kings and Greek texts in Nubia, and now you can too!

@ibrahimkaragul Asia Minor is the natural extension of these islands. It must absolutely return to the motherland.
We want it.

@DC_Draino Russia had been preparing for the war for months and everyone knew it was coming. "Days later" happens only in the movies.
And, besides, sovereign states should be free to choose their allies as they see fit. Russia is a cesspool with a dictator in charge. Is that a model?

@pati_marins64 You don't need too many of them. A couple of squadrons would dominate the skies over Ukraine and destroy what's left of the Russian air force.
How would an F35 perform against an F22?

@ulgentr_ @saintjavelin I don't think we are dominated by anyone.

@DIAS I'm sure he is referring more to Greece as an idea that expanded from France to the Euxine and Egypt, rather than as a state.
The truth is, Turks would like to erase the Greek DNA of their land, but archaeology slaps them in the face every time.
