Washington, 19 October: Turkish State Minister for Treasury Mehmet
Simsek expressed hope Friday that US House members will act with
common sense over a bill on Armenian allegations regarding the
incidents of 1915.

"I believe that wisdom will prevail and the bill will be rejected and
Turkish-American relations are strong enough to overcome difficulties,"
Simsek told a meeting in Washington.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
