ZEYNEP TOZDUMAN: EVERY JANUARY HRANT, HER OCAK AYI HRANT’LA YENIDEN VURULDUK BIZ

January 21, 2017 By administrator

ZEYNEP TOZDUMAN, human right activist, Izmir

By ZEYNEP TOZDUMAN,

Translated from Turkish, see turkish version

In 1915 and beyond, because of the suffering and oppression of the Armenian people, from Malatya to Istanbul and then to the Armenian orphanage, Hrant Dink is a journey to die for just wanting peace.

Agos Newspaper Editor-in-Chief Hrant Dink lost his life as a result of assassination in Istanbul / Sisli on 19 January 2007. Ogun Samast, a 17-year-old right-wing genocide, fired at Hrant Dink and once again shouted, “I killed kâvuru,” which is the real killer in this country for 102 years.

It was not only the voice of the Armenian people shot in Hrant. Hrant was shot by Hrant who was shot by Hrant who were shot by Hrant’s socialists, human rights defenders, Peacekeepers, oppressed peoples and beliefs, those who suffered discrimination, women who suffered torture and abandonment, genocide by child bodies, ecologists in short, peace and conscience.

Every January 19th, we take the conscience to send it like a flag, we multiply every day and get to the fields of Hrant to add sound. And if you are praised, be it Hrant; I will always be the way to see sunny tomorrows with all the kadim peoples and beliefs.

It has been 10 years since the death of Hrant Dink. For the last 10 years we are expecting and resisting Justice and Hrant’s thoughts to live on this land. And those who created the killer from the child; Their hands, their arms are shaking in this country. We can not talk about democracy and human rights and freedoms in a country where the killers are awarded and the hero is made.

In 1915, the Armenian-Syriac-the genocide applied to the Pontus Greeks; On this day the country continues to change shape. The people who made their presence on the Armenian absence / enmity in the country, we talked on the basis of the TBMM Constitution for the week, HDP deputy Garo Paylan, once again showed us that the genocide continues to Armenian people. Which facial areas come out every year to commemorate Hrant Dink, the fascist CHP, the defender of the deep state who caused Garo Paylan to unite in the parliament yesterday and to silence and punish him? This is the most beautiful gift to be given to these two-faced, racist understandings. The honorable Peace request that Hrant ‘ın uploaded to us as a mission.

One of the desires of Hrant Dink, who gave a peace struggle for life, was the removal of the borders and quotas between Armenia and Turkey and the development of commercial and cultural relations. I want to hope. Hrant thinks that one day he will live on this land.

From 1915 until today, the criminalization of the criminals, such as denial of genocide, has opened the way for new massacres in our country. Since we did not settle for 1915, we were witnesses of the massacres that corresponded to almost every day, and that was the day we were the madness.

1924 Nasturi massacre, 1930 Zilan, 1938 Dersim, Malatya, Maras, Sivas, Roboski, Suruc, Ankara, Sirnak, Diyarbakir, Sur, Cizre, Nusaybin, Silopi, Istanbul, Antep, Izmir, Prisons massacres and more nice cities every day with bombs We are. Just as it is in Syria and Iraq, we do not have the safety of life. Every new day; Poor Kurdish-Turkish working young people wake up with news of martyrdom funerals. The fact that our border neighbors are fleeing from the despicable / war of Islamic terrorist organizations living in Syria and Iraq, that the children bodies hit the seas and that they are marketed as slaves to the Islamic countries is also due to not facing these massacres.

On this day, Syria and Iraq to make the tesekkere and şavas tırlık, the country to blood pool, the crime is unpunished / past due to the trial. IŞİD, which is still disastrous in the middle east, Kürtlere, Ermenilere, Asur / Keldanilere, Alevilere, Ezidilere, who suffered shrinking 76 times, and many other people, is also rooted in the fact that crimes against humanity are unpunished. So peace does not come to those lands nor democracy without facing genocide.

Having a peaceful and Sol-socialist world view, Hrant Dink took an active part in the TKP organization he was influenced by in his life in the orphanage. And just because he believed the ideology changed his name to the Euphrates so that he might be hurt. Just like his friend / comrade Armenak Bakırcı changed his name to Orhan. In Hrant; He was a man of trial like the Turkish Armenian Revolutionary Paramaz and 20 friends who were executed in Beyazıt Square in 1915. In this country, those beautiful people who either believed that the only survival of their people and oppressed peoples would be possible with Socialism, were either executed or killed in a traitorous assassination in this country. Hrant Dink, the brave son of the Armenian people, was assassinated in Diyarbakir in 2015 in the same quarters of another people, the peace ambassador of the Kurdish people, Tahir Elçi.

How beautiful said Hrant ‘Yes, we have our eyes on this land of Armenians. There is, because our root is here. But do not worry. This is not for going to the soil. To come to this land and bury the bottom.

And the cries of 1.5 million people buried in the bottom of this land, the Kurds Genocide continues with the addition of screams. We are continuing to suffer these days as we have not been reconciled with 1915. Hrant Dink; It was a bridge between both the Armenian people and the Turkish people, and it was the voice of peace, peace. Hrant was not only the people of the genocide, but the conscience of all peoples / beliefs oppressed and discriminated against. On January 19th, the heart was ruthlessly shattered.

We, persistently and persistently, have been waiting for the death of Hrant ‘ın for 10 years. If Hrant “ın dead is removed from the ground, I believe that in 1915 we will apologize for the unmitigated death, and we will have a screen in our country. Although this day seems to disappear in this lightened state due to anti-democratic practices and an out-of-date / reactionary education and fascist laws, sooner or later this apology will surely happen. We know that the Sun can not platter with clay. In a country that has been bogged down for 102 years; The bright days are only to face the dark and dirty history of the past.

The ongoing Hrant Dink case, Er Sevag Fisherman’s case and linguist intellectual, Sevan Nişanyan are still held arbitrarily in the penitentiary house, and the ones made in the parliament by Garo Paylan in 1915 are a concrete demonstration of the 1915 persecution for the Armenian people and the Christian people.

In the land called Anatolia, not only 1.5 million Armenians but also hundreds of thousands Assyrian-Syrian and Pontus Greeks were sacrificed. Although Turkey was one of the first countries to sign the treaty enacted by Rafael Lemkin in 1948, it still denies genocide.

It is the result of the murder of Hrant Dink and the fact that the real killers are still not being brought before the judiciary with the rejection and the denial of the Armenian genocide. Today, the lawlessness which has lived in the country since 15 July 2016 …

HER OCAK AYI HRANT’LA YENIDEN VURULDUK BIZ

1915 ve sonrası Ermeni halkının yaşadığı acılar ve baskılar yüzünden Malatya“dan, Istanbul’a ve ardından Ermeni yetimhanesine, ata yurdu olan ülkesinde; sadece barış istediği için ölume giden bir yolcudur Hrant Dink.
Agos Gazetesi Genel Yayın Yönetmeni Hrant Dink 19 Ocak 2007 tarihinde Istanbul/ Şişli’de, uğradığı suikast sonucu hayatını kaybetmiştir. 17 yaşındaki Ogün Samast adlı sağ görüşlü bir gencin Hrant Dink‘e ateş ederek, “Gâvuru öldürdüm” diye haykırmasından bir kez daha anlıyoruz ki bu ülkede tam 102 yıldır asıl katiller, hep dışarda.
Hrant‘da vurulan sadece Ermeni halkının sesi değildi. Hrant“la vurulan Sol- sosyalistlerin, insan hakları savunucularının, Barışseverlerin, Ezilen halkların ve inançların, Ayrımcılığa uğrayanların, Iskence ve tecavüze uğrayan kadınların, Çocuk bedenlere yapılan soykırımın, Ekolojistlerin kısacası barışın, insanın ve vicdanın sesiydi Hrant‘la vurulan.
Her 19 Ocak günü o vicdanı bir bayrak gibi göndere çekmek icin, her gün daha da çoğalarak Hrant’in sesine, ses katmak için bizler alanlara cıkarız. Ve ant olsun, şart olsun ki Hrant; yolun hep yolumuz olacaktır güneşli yarınları tüm kadim halklar ve inançlarla birlikte görmek için.
Hrant Dink’in ölümünün ardından tam 10 yıl geçti. Tam 10 yıldır bizler Adalet ve Hrant’ın düsüncelerinin bu topraklarda hayat bulmasını bekliyor ve direniyoruz. Ve çocuktan katil yaratanlar; ellerini, kollarını sallayarak geziyorlar bu ülkede. Katillerin ödüllendirildiği, kahraman yapıldığı bir ülkede, demokrasi ve insan hak ve hürriyetlerinden söz edemeyiz.
1915’de Ermeni- Süryani- Pontus Rumlara uygulanan Soykırım; bu günde ülkede şekil değiştirerek devam ediyor. Varlıklarını Ermeni yokluğu/ düşmanlığı üzerine insaat eden Ülkede, gectigimiz hafta TBMM Anayasa oylamasında konuşan, HDP Milletvekili Garo Paylan‘a yapılanlar, bizlere bir kez daha göstermiştir ki Ermeni halkına soykırım devam ediyor. Dün Garo Paylan‘ ı meclisde üç parti birlik olup susturmaya, ceza almasına neden olan derin devletin savunucusu fasist CHP, Hrant Dink’i anmak icin her yıl hangi yüzle alanlara çıkıyor? Işte bu iki yüzlü, ırkcı anlayışlara da verilecek en güzel armağandır Hrant‘ ın bize bir görev olarak yüklediği onurlu Barış talebi.
Yaşamı boyu barış mücadelesi veren Hrant Dink’in, bir arzusu da Ermenistan ve Türkiye arasında sınırların ve kotaların kaldırılıp, ticari ve kültürel ilişkilerin geliştirilmesiydi. Bende ummak istiyorum. Hrant’ın bu düşünün, bir gün bu topraklarda hayat bulmasını.
1915’den günümüze değin soykırımın inkârı gibi suçluların cezasız kalması, ülkemizde yeni kitlesel katliamların yolunu açmiştır . 1915 ile hesaplaşmadığımız için neredeyse her güne denk düşen katliamların tanığı ve maduru olduk bu güne değin.
1924 Nasturi katliamı, 1930 Zilan, 1938 Dersim, Malatya, Maraş, Sivas, Roboski, Suruc, Ankara, Şırnak, Diyarbakır, Sur, Cizre, Nusaybin, Silopi, Istanbul, Antep, Izmir , Cezaevleri katliamları ve daha nice sehirlerde her gün bombalarla uyanır olduk. Tıpkı Suriye ve Irak‘da olduğu gibi can güvenliğimiz kalmadı. Her yeni güne; yoksul Kürt- Türk emekçi gençlerin şehit cenazeleri haberleri ile uyanır olduk. Sınır komşularımız Suriye ve Irak“da yaşatılan Islami terör örgütlerinin zülmunden/ savaşından kaçan, çocuk bedenlerin denizlere vurması da ve köle olarak islam ülkelerine pazarlanması da, işte bu katliamlarla yüzleşmemekten kaynaklıdır.
Bu gün, Türkiye‘nin; Suriye ve Irak’a teskere çıkarması ve şavas çığırtkanlığı yapması, ülkeyi kan gölüne çevirmesi de, suçun cezasız /gecmişin yargılanmamasından kaynaklıdır. Yine orta doğunun felaketi olan IŞİD‘in bölgede; Kürtlere, Ermenilere, Asur/Keldanilere, Alevilere,76 kez kıyıma uğrayan Ezidilere ve daha bir çok halka karşı acımasız bir vandalizm uygulaması da, insanlık suçlarının cezasız kalmasından kaynaklıdır. Bu yüzden soykırımla yüzleşmeden o topraklara ne barış gelir ne demokrasi.
Barışsever ve Sol- sosyalist dünya gorüşüne sahip olan Hrant Dink, yetimhanede yaşadığı yıllarda etkilendiği TKP örgütünde aktif rol aldı. Ve sırf inandığı ideoloji, zarar görmesin diye adını Fırat olarak değistirdi. Tıpkı arkadası /yoldası Armenak Bakırcı‘nın adının Orhan olarak degistirdiği gibi. Hrant‘da; 1915’lerde Beyazıt meydanında idam edilen Türkiyeli Ermeni Devrimci Paramaz ve 20 arkadası gibi dava adamıydı. Bu ülkede halkının ve ezilen halkların tek kurtulusunun Sosyalizmle mümkün olacağına inanan, o güzel insanlar ya idam edildi ya da hain bir suikasta kurban gitti bu ülkede. Ermeni halkının yiğit evladı Hrant Dink Istanbul“da, bir başka halkın, Kürt halkının barış elçisi Tahir Elçi’ de aynı sekilde 2015’de Diyarbakır“da bir suikast sonucu katledildi.
Ne güzel demişti Hrant ‘ Evet, biz ErmeniIerin bu toprakIarda gözümüz var. Var, çünkü kökümüz burada. Ama merak etmeyin. Bu toprakIarı aIıp gitmek için değil. Bu toprakIarın geIip dibine gömüImek için’.
Ve bu toprakların dibine gömülen 1.5 milyon insanın çığlıklarına, son 2 yıldır da Kürtlerin çığlıkları eklenerek soykırım devam ediyor. Bizler 1915 ile hesaplaşmadığımız icin bu gün bu acılar devam ediyor. Hrant Dink; hem Ermeni halkı hem Türk halkı arasında bir köprüydü ve o barış dilinin, barışın sesiydi. Hrant sadece soykırım yasayan halkların degil, ezilen ve ayrımcılığa uğrayan bütün halkların/inançların vicdanıydı. 19 Ocak günü o yüreği acımasızca paramparça ettiler.
Bizler, inatla ve ısrarla 10 yıldır Hrant’ ın ölüsünün yerden kaldırılmasını bekliyoruz . Hrant“ın ölüsü yerden kaldırılırsa, inanıyorum ki 1915’deki kefensiz ölülerden de özür dilenecek, ve bir perde aralanacak ülkemizde. Bu gün anti demokratik uygulamalar ve çağ dışı/ gerici- yobaz bir eğitim ve faşizan yasalar yüzünden o ısık ülkede yok gibi görünse de, er ya da gec bu özür mutlaka olacak. Bizler biliyoruz ki Günes balçıkla sıvanamaz. 102 yıldır batağa saplanmış bir ülkede; aydınlık günler ancak ve ancak gecmişin karanlık ve kirli tarihiyle yüzleşmekten gecer.
Ülkemızde süregelen Hrant Dink davası, Er Sevag Balıkcı davası ve dil bilimci aydın, Sevan Nişanyan’nın hala ceza evinde keyfi olarak tutulması, Garo Paylan‘a meclisde yapılanlar da bizlere 1915’in, Ermeni halkı ve Hristiyan halklar icin hala sürdüğünün somut bir gostergesidir.
Anadolu denilen topraklarda , sadece 1.5 milyon Ermeni değil, aynı zamanda yüz binlerce Asuri-Süryani ve Pontus Rum da kurban edildi. Türkiye, 1948 yilinda Rafael Lemkin tarafindan yasallastırılan antlaşmaya ilk imza atan ülkelerden biri olmasina karşın hala soykırımı inkar etmektedir.
Ermeni soykırımının reddi ve inkari ile birlikte, Hrant Dink’in öldürülüşünün ve gerçek katillerinin yargı önüne hala çıkarılmayışının sonucudur bu gün 15 Temmuz 2016’dan bu yana ülkede yaşatılan hukuksuzluk…
