“Nearly a century after the Armenian Genocide, these people are still being slaughtered
in Syria“. And now, almost unmentioned in the media, their holy places are also being
desecrated… these ghastly killing fields have become the killing fields of a new war. Upon the
bones of the dead Armenians, the Syrian conflict is being fought. And the descendants of the
Armenian Christian survivors who found sanctuary in the old Syrian lands have been forced to
flee again.” (The Independent)
