CICEK: “ARTICLE 301 CAN BE CHANGED”
Before a meeting of Parliament’s Justice Commission yesterday,
Justice Minister Cemil Cicek spoke to reporters about possible
changes to controversial Turkish Penal Code (TCK) Article 301, saying
that only four articles of the TCK couldn’t be changed, namely 1,
2, 3, and 174. “Thus, all articles except these can be changed,”
said Cicek. “Article 301 was amended in the past. Article 301 isn’t
off-limits to change.” /Aksam/

“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
