What a rare gift the Turks had, in the person of Sam Weems.

I got to personally "know," a little bit, what kind of a person Sam Weems was, when I got my hands on a Christian video he produced and hosted, entitled, SEVEN CHURCHES OF REVELATION. (Where the screen shots on this page are from.)

Judge Sam Weems

Christian Scholar, Judge Sam Weems

So what kind of a person was he? I only "knew" him through his letters that he tirelessly sent to a number of nutty Armenians, accusing him of all kinds of drivel, some of which have been reproduced below. I admired him for his feistiness... I admired him for not shirking from saying things that could be considered impolitic... but because these things were the truth, he had the guts not to shirk from saying them.

When I read his book, ARMENIA — SECRETS OF A "CHRISTIAN" TERRORIST STATE, I also admired him for his research capabilities. He  traveled to London, Paris, Rome, Moscow, Istanbul and Washington, D.C. ... that's professional dedication. As a district attorney and judge, he possessed the skills to decipher the tons of information he collected, and to determine fact from fiction. He did so on his own coin... in fact, after having depleted his savings, I understand he was nearly broke when he died. The book sold well, but because of shenanigans involved, he evidently did not see much of the money.

On the video, Sam Weems comes across as the kind of man who would be the LAST kind of character one would imagine as being sympathetic to the Turkish version of events. He had a heavy Southern accent; and he was a devout Christian, making him sound like a "Bible Belt" stereotype... men like Pat Robertson and Jerry Falwell, who make no bones about crucifying Islam (so you know where they would stand, regarding their feelings toward Turkey; at least, however, Jerry Falwell does not go so far as to believe the "anti-Christ" is the Turks, as George Horton did... quoting Cardinal Newman. No, instead, Reverend Falwell believes the anti-Christ is Jewish..!).

All the more reason Sam Weems deserves credit for being a stand-up man. He put aside what must have been his bias toward his own religion (that the more than average religiously inclined person can't help but feel), and only considered the TRUTH.

So when he makes statements that are not very flattering of the Armenians and their character, do you think he did so because he loved Turks and hated Armenians? NO. Like Admiral Bristol (whom Greeks and Armenians hope to discredit by falsely calling him "pro-Turk"), Sam Weems learned all that he had been told (assuming he was like the average American, regarding the "Genocide" issue... the Armenians were the innocent angels, and the Turks were the evil barbarians) was untrue, once he took the rare step (for an American) of looking into the matter. When he learned what deceivers Armenians are (which they proved on a personal level after going on the attack.... dismissing Weems' book as propaganda even before its release, and making up lies about the man's character) he got mad. Wouldn't you be, at the moment of discovering your deeply-rooted belief system was founded upon a pack of lies?

When Sam Weems criticized Armenians, his anger stemmed a lot from his religious perspective. Sam Weems was a true Christian. His heart was obviously open, and he had much love to offer; I could see it in the manner in which he spoke on the video, and in the way he interacted with people... practicing the good qualities Christianity teaches us. Armenians have expertly tugged at the heartstrings of the Christian West by claiming that they were the first Christian nation, and milking the Christian vs. Moslem issue (nearly irrelevant in a nation like the Ottoman Empire, known for its religious freedom and tolerance), in the knowledge they would be getting even more sympathy from ignorant Christian Westerners. So Sam Weems discovers Armenians... with their historical ways of lying, betrayal, disloyalty and murder... are anything BUT true Christians. Sam Weems got mad as hell, and decided to do something about it!

On this TAT web site, I have refrained, for a large part, in citing historical "insults" against the Armenians... there is a taste of it in the "Quotes" page... and I included a couple of bad things Russian officer Lt. Col. Twerdokhleboff said about the Armenians at the end of his page (he got to know the Armenians' atrocious behavior firsthand, and couldn't resist providing a few nasty proverbs) ... but I didn't want to concentrate on these racist remarks, like Greeks and Armenians do on their omnipresent anti-Turkish web sites. However, don't think I didn't come across a whole slew of written feelings by people throughout history, who did not have the highest regard for the Armenians, especially once they got to personally know them. (I have a Lithuanian pen-pal who recently told me he once had a chance to visit the Armenian province in the old Soviet Union... the main thing that turned him off was that everyone tried to rip him off.) There must be a REASON why there is so much of a record regarding Armenian bad behavior throughout he ages... and Sam Weems became acquainted of that side of the Armenians, and was none too happy about it. (Even before the personal attacks began... in fact, when he responded to the Armenian Assembly of America, after they libeled him by calling him a "convicted felon," Sam Weems provided a series of examples of people and organizations Armenian ingrates should have been grateful for, but criticized at the first opportunity. (Loyalty and Armenians... like oil and water.) Weems was unquestionably a superb researcher.

Mrs. Sam Weems

Mrs. Weems

I wish he hung around with us a while longer... not only because he was a beautiful human being,  but because I would have loved to have seen him stick it to the Armenian Assembly of America in a court of law, as he promised to do.

Why did Sam Weems develop positive feelings about Turkey? I don't know his personal life, but visiting Turkey for the making of his religious video (there are many Christian landmarks in historic Turkey) obviously gave him firsthand insight as to the kinds of good people Turks really are (the writer Alphonse de Lamartime even went as far as to say that because Turks were such a gentle, heroic people, to be the foe of such a people would be like being the "foe of humanity"! No wonder when Westerners get to know the nature of the real Turk, flying in the face of the hateful propaganda Westerners are exposed to, these few Westerners with firsthand contact go on to passionately defend Turks... the Turks, who happen to be total losers when it comes to public relations). In the end credits, from her name, I surmised his wife was likely Turkish, and that could have made a good difference in allowing the man to question his predispositions. Thank goodness for Turkish women who marry Westerners who can make a difference... otherwise, except for tourists to Turkey (and others who have similar limited contact), there would be almost no other natural bridge for Westerners to discover what they have been told about Turks have not been true.

How much influence can a Turkish spouse have, by the way? Somebody one cares for can certainly open one's eyes to a situation one was ignorant of before... but that's it. A non-milksop will look at the situation and make up his own mind. What if Sam Weems analyzed the truthfulness regarding the Armenian "Genocide" and concluded there was a genocide... why would he have written the book he wound up writing? Would you think the wife threatened, "if you don't become 'pro-Turk,' I won't have sex with you"? While let's not underestimate the power of such a threat, if you read the writings of Sam Weems, it becomes clear the exceptionally strong-willed district attorney and judge was very much his own man.

(After writing the above, I added the eulogy directly below. There, it sounds like Weems might have met his wife after beginning his research... his interest spurred by discovering Ataturk's story. ["He met his Gulnur in Istanbul following his return from Moscow."] He was married to Gulnur for only two years. Well. If he tied the knot with a Turk after developing sympathy for the Turks, that's an order of events one doesn't often run into.)

 
On Weems' Passing: by Mahmut Esat Ozan

A GREAT FRIEND OF THE TURKS, SAM WEEMS, DIED. OUR
CONDOLENCES GO TO GULNUR, HIS DEVOTED WIFE AND
TO EVERY TURK WHO LOVED AND RESPECTED HIM

One of the greatest friends the Turks have ever had passed away in his own home on January 24, 2003, at 6:00 PM. Arkansas time. Our sincere condolences go to his devoted wife and inseparable life companion, Gulnur Weems, and to everyone who had discovered Sam's infinite respect and love for the Turkish people. He had acquired a love for Mustafa Kemal Ataturk and the Turkish nation while studying his life story. This had led him to investigate the unfairness shown to the Turks. He met his Gulnur in Istanbul following his return from Moscow.

Sam and Gulnur had been married for two years. They had wonderful plans this spring. Sam was invited to deliver the opening day ceremonies speech in Erzurum, Turkey commemorating on March 12, the city's liberation from the Armenians in 1918. From there, the two of them were scheduled to go to Baku, Azerbaijan where he was to meet the high echelon officials of that country's government, and sample the newly-finished Russian translation of his universally well-received work called: ARMENIA
SECRETS OF A "CHRISTIAN" TERRORIST STATE. Other important endeavors were awaiting them in Turkey . Upon their return home he was to put the finishing touches on his second in a series of books. Sam used to talk with great pride about his : THE ARMENIAN GREAT DECEPTION series. The Turkish translation of his works was to be seriously discussed with his publisher while visiting in Turkey.

Samuel A. Weems, a former District attorney and Judge from Arkansas was born on December 12, 1936 In Hazen, Arkansas. He earned a juris doctorate degree from the University of Arkansas School of Law. In addition to serving on the city council, Sam was elected one of the 100 delegates to rewrite the Arkansas
Constitution.

The author of the above-mentioned popular book, he was also responsible for the publication of many articles and magazine stories. He also wrote a newspaper column . Sam traveled extensively during his research about the subjects he enjoyed so much. These trips took him to London, Paris, Rome, Moscow, Baku, Washington, D.C, and of course, Istanbul. He and Gulnur were in Turkey the week the tragedy of September 11, 2001 took place. They were there for Sam to make a Video entitled: SEVEN CHURCHES OF REVELETION which has been commended enthusiastically by fellow Videographers.

Funeral services will take place on Monday Jan 27, 2003 at 2:00, PM at the Calgary Baptist Church. Visitations are to be held in Westbrook Funeral Home. Sam is survived by his 94 year-old mother Ethel, and a son Jonathan who lives in West Memphis, Arkansas.

Samuel A Weems, or Sam as he liked to be called, was an indomitable Scott and adopted Turk. He will be sorely-missed and surely remembered eternally for his altruistic deeds by every Turk alive in Turkey and in Azerbaijan.

 


Former President Bill Clinton joins Turks in the mourning of their mutual friend Sam Weems

Mahmut Esat Ozan
To The Turkish Times

The following historic letter was received recently by Mrs. Weems, the widow of the late Sam Weems, who passed away last month in Hazen, Arkansas. It is from the former President of the United States of America, who hails from the same State where Sam had made many friends and was well-liked by one and all. His dream "The Ataturk Peace Institute" was to have been built facing the Clinton Library on the Arkansas River in Little Rock, Arkansas.

Former President Bill Clinton's letter was type-written, but the last sentence was rendered in pen and ink. The historic document says:

"Dear Gulnur,

Hillary and I were deeply saddened to have just learned of Sam's death, and we extend our heartfelt sympathy. We hope that the loving of your family and friends will comfort you during this difficult time. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

Sincerely

Bill Clinton

(The portion Mr. Clinton wrote in ink, by hand says) : "I will always be grateful for the times we spent together."


 An Armenian Dances on Sam Weems' Grave



The author wrote a letter believing Sam Weems was clearly funded by the Azerbajani and Turkish governments to create propaganda against the Armenia and Armenians, and accused him of being a racist. He concluded by stating that while sad to say, he was "happy that Mr. Weems died," and that it was "too bad GOD did not punish him earlier for telling such a lies."

Answer to the author:



Dear Fellow Academic
Mr. Levon Gasparian,

Weems converses with two Australian tourists in Turkey

Weems converses with two Australian tourists in Turkey

The 'edu' ending of your e-mail may indicate that you could also be an active educator or a retired one. Mr. Gasparian , I guarantee you 100%, that no Muslim or any other kind of Turkish person will ever have the urge of dancing with glee at your funeral. In fact, as one of those Turks who promises you that he won't desecrate your sublime memory, even though he was disgusted with your remarks: "I am happy that Mr Weems died. Too bad GOD did not punish him earlier for telling such lies." You are the author of those ugly words about our newly-departed good friend the late Hon. Judge Samuel A. Weems, seemingly drawing an ample amount of pleasure from what you have uttered.

I hope that the creator who had something to do with your being on this earth grants you a long life, so that on every passing day of your existence on this planet you should feel sorry for what you said about a wonderful, courageous human being of your own Christian religious persuasion, who dared to tell the sad truth about your race. He was the personification of a saint alive. Telling the truth about your race was his only sin.

You Armenians claim that you are the direct descendents of Prophet Noah. What a self-serving braggadocio! According to your 'fable' you were saved from the deluge by prophet Noah taking you the Armenians into his wooden barge. It is reported in the Bible that he took two of every kind of creature, at the height of those terrible floods, those who would otherwise be destined to drown. He must have taken at least two of your kind into his ship also.

But let us not forget that he also took in among other creatures, Hyenas, snakes, leeches and scorpions too. I got a hunch that he was not very happy that he had given the Armenians a ride. He is heard afterwards saying the following: "What a mistake have I committed? What a wonderful place this GOD's earth could have been If I had not taken them in with us to be transported to dry lands."

Those are pretty sad words, Mr. Gasparian, but not mine. Mine would be: "Let even the Armenians live among us. There is still hope that they may be transformed eventually into some acceptable creatures. There is still hope for them even, because look at history! It is replete with primitive mortals who were the most uncivilized, the most cruel, the most boodthirsty people of their times: the "Vikings." Since we can count all Scandinavians, the descendents of the Vikings nowadays amongst the most
civilized, most humane, most peaceful members of wordly society of human beings, who knows, Mr. Gasparian, your kind also, one day, will see the light and emulate the Vikings. At least that is my fervent wish for you and for your people."

Good day Sir!

Sam Weems Lays It On the Line

February 17, 2002

Mr. Emil Sanamyan
Research and Information Associate
Armenian Assembly of America


Mr. Sanamyan:

I am writing to respond to your email to me dated February 13, 2002. Please be advised as follows regarding your offer to make a "correction" if I am not the Sam Weems you are talking about. Let us be very clear with each other —  however you explain it — I am the Sam Weems you have attacked and libeled!

I say to you yet one more time — I HAVE NEVER BEEN CONVICTED OF A FELONY IN DEWITT, ARKANSAS OR ANYWHERE ELSE AS YOU CLAIM AND PUBLISH! It is to my astonishment that you continue to print and reprint this false statement. I do not understand why your "research" department has not yet taken the very basic action to verify if I am a truth teller. You could have called the Criminal Court in DeWitt, Arkansas to determine if I had been convicted there — yet you continue to refuse to do this basic research! You could have called the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette to determine if the article you use as your source is correct — yet you refuse to do that either! My question is this: Why do you fail and refuse to check truth when it is readily available, and said to you over and over again exactly where you can prove truth for yourself?

Permit me to help your "Research Department" find truth that I am not a convicted felon:

* I will be pleased to provide you with the name of the Criminal Court in DeWitt, Arkansas.

* I will be pleased to provide you with the telephone number of the
Criminal Court in DeWitt, Arkansas.

* I will be pleased to provide you with the name of the clerk of the
Criminal Court in DeWitt, Arkansas.

* I will be pleased to provide you with the address of the Criminal court in DeWitt, Arkansas, and the directions of how to get there if you want to go and check the records for yourself.

* If you want to fly to Little Rock, Arkansas, I will be delighted to
drive you to the Courthouse in DeWitt, Arkansas. In that way you can more quickly examine all of the actual records for yourself.

* I will be pleased to provide you and your entire "research" department with this information to assist you in making the smallest effort of making one simple telephone call. You will see that it will take only a few minutes to check to see if I am a truth teller when I say to you I have never-never-ever been convicted of a felony as you allege in your daily publications over and over again!

Mr. Sanamyan, for your information, I have spoken with the editors and the attorney for the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette. These gentlemen stated that neither you, nor any Armenian has ever called to verify the statement and article you claim to quote from their publication.

Because you and your "research" department refuse to call this newspaper that you quote here in Arkansas, I am advised that the editor of the newspaper will contact you in writing to confirm to you and the Armenian Assembly of America the following truth that;

1. Sam Weems has never been convicted of a felony.

2. You and the Armenian Assembly of America are wrong and in error to quote the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette as your source, claiming that Sam Weems is a convicted felon.

Come on down to Arkansas and I will personally take you to meet with the editors and the attorney for the Arkansas Democrat Gazette. You can ask these gentlemen face to face about your claim that I am a convicted felon. Come on down and I will be delighted to prove to you-face to face-that what you have printed about me is a total lie!

In your last e-mail, you said that if I could prove I wasn't the Sam Weems in question, you would make a "correction." Mr. Sanamyan: This is an insult! It is your false accusations in your articles and your smear campaign that has caused me to receive hundreds of death threats and hate mail from Armenians around the world. I take such threats seriously!

I tell you plainly that you and the Armenian Assembly of America will be held responsible if any harm comes to me because of the continuation of your false and untrue publication of the great lie about me. I also tell you plainly that I have asked for police protection because of the terrorist record of Armenian Americans here in the United States of America. The following are just a few of the terrorist acts I know, and you know, that have been committed by Armenian Americans:

* I know that Armenians ran a campaign of murder during the 1970s and 1980s around the world where scores of Turks were murdered. Armenian Americans ambushed and assassinated four Turks here in America, who was here as guests of the US government.

* I know that Armenian Americans bombed an American university professor's home because he published information about the truth about the unfounded Armenian genocide claims.

* I know that Armenian Americans have made bomb threats that caused Turkish cultural groups to be forced to canceled performances here in the United States.

* I received a letter just yesterday from an American born movie producer who made a film of the Christian Holy sites in Turkey. He shared his experience of being terrorized by Armenian American young thugs who invaded his showing and threw "stink bombs" and forced everyone out. I am told over and over again by Armenian hate mail how Armenia is the first Christian nation of earth. I must ask-what manner of Christians would commit such acts of terror toward other Christians?

I tell you plainly that once you see for yourself that I am a
truth-teller, and that you have libeled me without cause, I will expect
more than a one-line "correction" buried in the back on one of your
publications. I ask that Armenian Assembly of America and I sit down and write a formal written agreement, which states clearly, what the Armenian Assembly will do to make its great "wrong", without cause, a "right." I completely reject, as out of hand, your offer to make a "correction." I demand a page-one apology! I also demand that you print your page-one apology in as many issues as you have printed calling me a felon!

Permit me to share but a few of the hate e-mail and threats I have
received, so that you can see how successfully your hate campaign is working:

Armenian Davit Harutyunya wrote the following with his garbled, inept, an illiterate English, threatening me with murder. His e-mail comes from the Netherlands. The e-mail address is davotiko@ya(withheld).com "I want to mention that your book about armenia is stupid as you, because to wirte such a
book against armenia which is country in the word how accept christian faith, I what to inform you, as you know we are separeted all over the world and if I can find you I'll kill you, you are gandon."

And then there is this unsigned e-mail, just signed "A Fellow Armenian. His e-mail address is Sako Varozin bozavadjarsako@hot(withheld).com

He writes; "Hey asshole that wrote the great deception.
"Hey motherfucker, I hope you are dong okay, I hope your family is doing good in Ireland getting fucked over by Britain. Anyway I just wanted to tell you that you will burn in hell for putting down the first Christian nation. I will make sure to show up to your funeral hopefully soon, and piss on your pathetic corpse."

Here is a third example from another Armenian: "Oii.you better get this site off the web as it offends armenians...if u don't then we will find other means to abuse your power.just imagine what we could do to your booksite and yur company!!!" This email is not signed but the address is unknown@ipri(withheld).com.au

This list goes on and on, e-mails from your esteemed fellow Armenians, full of filthy language, calling me names, and vomiting their hate and rage. There are death threats in those mails too. I must ask the question — does Armenia teach her children to hate from birth? How can there ever be peace in the Near East when so many rabid Armenians act the way they do as evidenced by their "outrageous" behavior?

The Armenian Assembly of America makes the wild, made up tall tale, that I have written an "outrageous book." This is a "silly" and "irresponsible" statement to make because no one yet has read my book, including the Armenian Assembly of America. My book has not been published yet. The Armenian Assembly of America's knee-jerk reaction is unacceptable, pathetic and unlawful. The actual truth is that I have based my book on the words of your own Armenian historian. When the Armenian Assembly of America attacks me with such hate and threats of violence, they are in
truth attacking their own historian.

Here is another example from one of your decent people. He calls himself Raffi in Canada — his e-mail address is raffneckz@ya(withheld).com

"'hi, Yah I received one of your books and I had a problem with it. Did it occur to you that your whole book is full of lies?" This good Armenian Christian, like all the others who attack me, can't possibly have received and read my book yet as I just told you — my publisher has NOT released it!

Frankly, I must ask the question of this Canadian and all the others from outside the US: What business is it of this Canadian to question me? This American taxpayer just wants to know what benefit he receives from Armenia for the $1.5 billion dollars he has given to Armenia over the past ten years? The Canadian taxpayers aren't giving billions of their tax dollars to Armenia — why should the taxpayers of America?

The Armenian Assembly of America published a headline that my "outrageous book was for the Turkish Lobby!" I tell you plainly and direct — no Turks, no organizations or any special interest groups influenced me in any way. To prove this statement, I will be happy to permit the Armenian Assembly to go through my bank records for the past five years. Is this fair to prove your statement, honorable gentlemen?

Permit me to add one other factor to my offer: Once you have examined my bank records you must agree to make available the bank records of the Armenian Assembly of America for me to examine for the past five years. Will you accept this offer? I have some questions about your funding I would like to see revealed.

You wrote your article about me and deliberately attacked me without having asked me to make a single comment. In order to show you that I do not do such one-sided things, permit me to ask you to assist me with an article I am in the process of writing for my national Baptist publication. Please comment on the following questions:

* Why do the Armenian State Police send goon squads to raid and breakup Baptist Church services in Armenia? After all, there are only 3 or 4 of our churches left in your country because of your government and "official" church ethnic cleansings campaigns.

* Why does Armenia deny total freedom of the Christian faith in their tiny state? Armenians have total freedom of religion here in the United States, so why do they deny such freedom of choice to the Christian faith in return in their own state?

* The Armenian Assembly of America has been very successful in obtaining billions of dollars in aid from the United States Congress. What benefit does Christian Americans get for these billions of dollars that flow to Armenia? Baptists of America want to know why Armenia has such a cozy relationship with Russia?

* Why did Armenia invite the Russians to build army bases in their country?

* Why did Armenia invite the Russians to station their troops in their
country?

* Why did Armenia ask for and receive Russian MIG fighter jets, complete with Russian air force officers, to fly them?

* Why did Armenia ask for and receive Russian surface to air missiles?

* Why did Armenia ask for and receive more than one billion dollars in "Christian" Russian military hardware and what did they do with it?

* Clearly, Armenia has a close and special relationship with Russia. Why shouldn't the Armenians get all their foreign aid from Russia and zero dollars from the United States taxpayer?

I will appreciate your response to these questions because I am hereby giving you the opportunity to have your fair say and to comment in my article.

Now then-back to the reason for this e-mail. I trust that you will choose to take the right and fair action, and permit me to assist you to prove that I am not a convicted felon nor am I a racist or your other made up tall tales you printed. Come on down to Arkansas and let me prove it to you. You will discover, for example that I have an unblemished record on civil rights. Armenia can't say that! If you do not choose to be honest, and if you do not choose to be fair — well — Mr. Sanamyan, that is what we have courts for in this country. This is not a "threat" as you have published — it is a "promise" that if you do not work out a written agreement with me, I make you this "vow"-- that we shall meet in a non-Armenian court of law here in the United States of America. I would suggest that it is past time for the Armenian Assembly of America to hire a good lawyer to see exactly where you stand before you continue printing your big lie about me. I trust that you will promptly reply to this message, after consulting with your legal counsel. I trust that the Armenian Assembly of America will have the common sense to stop printing their horrible made up tall tales about me, make a public apology, and sign an agreement with me to right its great wrong. End of Story!

Yours truly,


Sam Weems

 

Holdwater: The Armenian Assembly of America. What an incredible organization, with a powerful budget of $2.5 million, that upholds truth, justice, and the American way.

 Sam Weems' response to Two Armenians


To: Mr. Karekin Jelalian

Mr. Jelalian:

My publisher forwarded your email to me. Please permit me to respond in this manner.

Ali, a Christian Turk

Ali, a Christian Turk... talking about
freedom of religion in modern Turkey

In your e mail you state that "the St. John Press book is full of lies,
lies, lies. Who paid Weems to write it? It's so typical of Turkish
revisionism. Are you sure you want to be supporting a web site that's so blatantly deceptive???"

Good sir, first and foremost, What kind of odd ball are you to make such claims about a book you have never read? For your information, the basis of my research for my book "IS" Armenian sources, not Turkish!

Buy the book yourself and learn that I used primarily "Armenian" sources upon which I draw my conclusions. Once you read the book, should you discover how your Armenian historians are wrong and have made mistakes, I shall be delighted to make corrections in my second edition to point out these errors, mistakes and Armenian "lies."

You asked "who paid Weems to write it" as to my book. No one has paid me to write my book! It is written in the typical way books are published. Your question does not make any sense and is insulting. Why should anyone pay me to write "my" book in the first place? Based upon four years of exhaustive research, I conclude that American Christians and taxpayers should know how Armenia has fleeced and deceived the Christian world, going back to 1885!

Sam Weems has kind words for Ali

Sam Weems has kind words for Ali

You, good sir, will be amazed to learn, by name, who started the great Armenian "lie" and the exact date the lie was first told that the Ottomans massacred 1.5 million poor Armenians. Good sir, you will also learn, by name and date, who spread the great Armenian lie of massacre, and there is proof certain that there could not have been this great "genocide" as Armenians have been claiming over and over and over again to anyone who will
listen.

My proof is, again based on Armenian records, that the only reason this great lie was made up and told in the first place was to deceive and fleece the Christians of the world. It is a shame that no independent Christian has bothered to check out Armenian tall tales before now!

Good sir, when did you or your forefathers first come to America? I don't know about you, but I choose to believe the independent American eyewitnesses' statements, rather than made up tall tales of self-interest Armenians! I believe that all other American Christian taxpayers will do the same as I am doing once they discover the facts.

How do you explain away the basic teaching of Christ when he tells the world (including Armenians) to "forgive? I conclude that as long, good sir, as Armenians hate, seek revenge, and make wild claims about a book before even reading it
there is never going to be peace in the Near East. It is past time for my government of the United States to cut Armenia loose and let it
become a footnote in history once again.

By way of background, I am a Scottish American. I don't have a drop of Turkish, Armenian or Azerbaijan blood in my veins. I infer from your comments that you are Armenian. You have a personal interest in presenting Armenia in a positive light. I understand your bias. I sadly see that Armenians are taught hate from birth. You never have questioned history objectively, and sought the truth for yourselves. My only bias is that of an American Christian and taxpayer, who has learned that he has been fleeced
and deceived by a gaggle of people called Armenians, who do not repent of their own evil acts. So long as this is true, good sir, Armenia does not merit Christian help!

I am a lifelong Southern Baptist Christian and an American taxpayer. Perhaps you, as a good Armenian can answer a few questions for me since you have asked questions of me:

Why, for example, has Armenian police attacked and disrupted religious services in my Baptist churches in your "ancient homeland?"

Just why can't there be real freedom of Christian religion in Armenia?

How dare Armenian police terrorize Baptist church services in your native land!

Armenian Americans have begged, whined and mooched $1.5 billion of my tax money over the past ten years. Good sir, why should I give one more red cent to your tiny state? I don't owe Armenia anything and neither does any other real American!

Why has Armenia begged the Russian to build three army bases in their tiny state and brought in Russian troops? You have Russian MIG fighter jets and surface to air missiles all over your tiny place to "defend" it. Since Armenia loves the Russians so much why not let the Russians keep up your  corrupt government--why should I give Armenia my tax money under such
conditions?

Just what kind of Christians are there in Armenia? My research, based on many conversations I have had with Armenian Christians in Armenian churches, and other sources I discovered show that Armenians don't follow the same Christ American Christians follow! The Bible American Christians believe in
would never approve of a sneak, cowardly and surprise attack on poor Muslims' homes and expel more than one million of them to tent city existence, all in the name of Jesus! (or greed in reality should I say!). This is not --please permit me to say again so that you do not misunderstand--these are not Christian actions!

Christ would never have approved of Armenians traveling the world to murder innocent Turkish officials. Armenians killed several here in my United States of America. These Turks, whether, I agreed with them or not, were guests in my country. Armenia had no right to invade my country to murder
anyone! Your church has stood moot and said nothing to these horrible murders. Christ would never have approved of such things! Just what kind of religion does the church of Armenia follow anyway?

The nun from the Virgin Mary's last house

Armenians have attacked and blown up the home of an American university professor in an attempt to silence him for sharing his findings of Armenian truth! Just how proud, good sir, are you of this Armenian tactic of terror and violence against an American citizen with whom you disagree?

Please permit me to ask one last question: Just why is the terrorist organization, Armenian Revolutionary Federation, headquartered and have records here in the United States of America? Why did this "Federation" refuse me the opportunity to research their records in Boston when I first began my research? Since the ARF makes use of American tax laws why are the
records secret? I just walked into the archives in Washington DC, Rome, Paris, London, and yes, even into the archives, unannounced, in Istanbul, and was allowed to research freely. What are Armenians hiding? Why are the Armenians keep spreading the lies that Turkish archives are closed?

Buy the book and read it for yourself. You will be enlightened to the fact that I am not a lackey for Turkey, Azerbaijan, Armenia or anyone else! I based my book on historical facts published mostly by Armenian scholars. As a taxpayer I am fed up with giving away billions of my tax dollars to Armenia and we get nothing back except insults and abuses as well as endless Armenian demands. I conclude that Armenians do not appreciate plain people like me who are paying out the billions of dollars to your self-called terrorist "ancient homeland."

Prove me wrong and I will be delighted to make a public retraction. If you can't prove me wrong then why don't you start by expressing the first "thank you" to the American people for all we have done for Armenia without the first public "thank you" yet!

Yours truly,

Sam Weems

A letter from an Armenian who charmingly gets his Nazis mixed up.

==========================

 

 


A letter signed "Modesto Rodriguez" using the e-mail address of a "Vahe Kandaharian" wrote that nobody has heard of Sam Weems, as a search on amazon.com will reveal. He goes on to get a historical fact straight, that it's "you,Turks,were allies with the Nazis while the Armenians were fighting against the Nazis." He then went on to claim that over "half million Armenians gave their lives to win the war." He then concluded by advising "Stop writing bullshit."

Mr. Kandeharian:

Your Canadian friend Modesto Rodriguez's message, who used your e mail address, has been forwarded to me. I am amazed at the shallow-mindedness of the context of his message.

The following is my reply to your friend:

Weems listens as the nun suggests Christians visit these historic Christian sites in Turkey

Weems listens as the nun suggests Christians visit these sites

I have done the most thorough, — day by day — search of Armenian General Drastamat Kanayan's (Dro) infamous 812th Nazi Armenian battalion, and it is evident in so many documents that they were experts in rounding up and capturing Jews. Talk about fascists, Nazis and friends of Hitler — Dro and his gaggle of Armenians are at the top of the list! It would be preposterous for a man of your learning and intelligence to not know of such well known and documented truth.

I know that you are aware of this one Armenian "friends of Hitler" unit, as there are several others also. But you know that! A smart and intelligent man like yourself certainly knows such facts and would never write such a learning impaired email as was sent under your name!

I am certain you will want to buy my next book because it especially focuses on exposing the Nazi Armenian troops efforts to help Hitler, with proven documents, to show the truth to people like you whose eyes and ears are shut to it. I also expose the weekly "Armenian" radio broadcast from Berlin that remained on the air and spread Armenian racist support for the Nazis until late 1944. A brilliant person such as yourself would know full well of such very public Armenian collaboration with Hitler and the Nazis,
because it is no secret in military documents! You can also be proud of the numerous military medals the Nazis gave individual Armenian soldiers for their good work in capturing Jews. The military records provide the names of these Armenian Nazi soldiers. Those names are no secret in the military records, either.

You will be amazed at how very good Armenian troops were, in capturing Jews and some of the famous Jewish individuals Armenian Nazis rounded up and sent to the death camps. You can be very proud of the Armenian Nazis fighting record and skills in capturing Jews. Truth of the matter is (from the same Nazi military records again) that the Armenian Nazis were not fit
to fight, man to man, at the front, and that is why they were assigned to backwater posts. Truth is nothing more than the fact that the Armenians were almost worthless fighting men and they were only really good at rounding up and capturing unarmed Jews.

While researching and finding out these facts, I had to ask myself, if perhaps the reason why the Armenian Nazis were so good at hounding Jews was because they believed in Hitler's racial-pure state. Today, Armenia itself has cleansed itself to the point that 94.8% of the country is pure Armenian. Why won't the Armenians permit my Baptist Church to spread the word of Christ in their tiny land? Why does Armenian police goon squads attack and raid worship services of the remaining 2 or 3 Baptist church
services in this tiny state?

Mr. Kandaharian: The half-wit who signed the text in your e mail
questioned my qualifications for writing my book. I am an American taxpayer and that is my very reason and absolute right for writing this book. Being an American tax payer only, gives me more than enough rights and entitlement to write such a book! Your Mr. Rodriguez doesn't pay taxes in this country — I do! Over the past ten years, the Armenian American lobby has fleeced and deceived American taxpayers out of $1.5 billion dollars. This taxpayer objects to the total waste of his tax dollars being sent to a gang of thugs, who have murdered Muslims in Azerbaijan and took more than 20% of their land in a dark ages-cheap-land grab with it, just because they liked to do so. Perhaps as smart as you are, you can tell me just one — let me repeat — just one reason why I, as a taxpayer, should give Armenia one red cent of my tax money? Not one Armenian has been able to tell me one benefit I get for giving away any of my tax money to Armenia? This is why I wrote my book and why I question giving my tax money away
just because a gang of thugs, who support the Armenian terrorists, give millions of dollars to American politicians!

My objection is loud and clear. I don't like the fact that the Armenians have invited the Russians to come in and build military bases in their tiny state. I don't like the fact that the Armenians have invited the Russians to station their troops in this tiny place. I don't like the fact that the Russians have MIG fighter jets in this tiny place. I don't like the fact that the Russians have surface to air missiles in this tiny place. I don't like the fact the Russians have given more than 1 billion dollars to Armenian in military hardware. If Armenians want to den up with the Russians, that's fine and their business. But don't you dare fleece and deceive this American taxpayer out of another $1.5 billion dollars at
the same time to finance Russians! If you love the Russians so much, let them pay you to keep you up, don't ask me to do it.

Mr. Rodriguez from Canada: You can bitch, moan, whine, beg, complain and make stupid comments about me all you wish — but don't you dare question me when you don't pay taxes here! Good sir — that is my qualification for doing research and writing my book. You can be rest assured that within the next 24 months or so this American will release three more books, exposing Armenia, revealing all the viciousness they have been doing under the shield of Christianity.

It is absolutely none of your business what I do nor what I write, when you don't pay one red cent in taxes in the United States of America.

Yours truly,
Sam A. Weems
 

How unfortunate for the world, and how lucky for the Armenians, that these three books will now not be released.

Slandering son of a bitch, Samuel Weems is dead!


Holdwater: I got such a kick out of this exchange between our Orthodox friends, reacting to the news of Sam Weems' death.

 

Slandering son of a bitch, Samuel Weems is dead!

Turkey loses one of its advocates
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sam Weems, a former district governor and a judge from Arkansas, has died of heart attack. Weems was the author of a book called "Armenia: Secrets of a 'Christian' Terrorist State," denouncing Armenian allegations that they were subjected to genocide at the hands of the Ottoman Empire in the early 20th century.

Weems died in his house in Arkansas on Sunday, Anatolia news agency reported.

Weems was one of the most devoted advocates of Turkish theses against Armenian allegations of genocide, especially when the U.S. Congress took up a resolution draft recognizing the alleged genocide a few years ago.

A vote in the U.S. Congress recognizing the Armenian allegations was shelved at the last minute when then U.S. President Bill Clinton intervened.

The 67-year-old judge delivered an address last year at the Washington-based American University.

--------------------


He will not be missed

No if only Bernard Lewis and Stanford Shaw would croke as well. If they are sent up the river, that will be a serious blow to Turkish historical revisionism in the United States.

Stelios, January 28 2003

Too bad he died.

I wanted ti kill the son of a jew whore myself!


Ann Frankenstein

Maybe someone should annihilate these people's families and deny it.

Then I'd like to see their comments...


Prometheus
--------------------



Of course they should be killed

They are collaborating with Moscow!

This is a death sentence.


Stelios
--------------------



I believe that in the Heaven he will be shown the live pictures of what he had denied. And he will feel the feelings of tortures of those millions martyrs that he had denied. That shall be his personall Hell.

Going down to earth... Moscow, think about it. And all those "heart attacks."

Paraphrasing what spies say: "He denied [knew] too much".


G. Rabinovitz

Stelios, what the hell r u talkin about ?

Rabinovitz, you sound religious, my condoleances to you!

Zinvor

Id love to beat the life out of the bastard myself.

Anyway Bernard Lewis has no credibility whatsoever. read up on his history you will see.

fuck the turks. There is nothing more dangerous than the truth and we have that on our back so dont worry.

Did you know that Bernard Lewis is a jew?


A.R. Rothstein

One of the seven churches Sam Weems visited: Church of St. John

One of the seven churches Sam Weems visited. Mr. Weems
was a true Christian. He didn't believe in the Christianity
of the people whose words are beside us. Even
their priests don't behave like real Christians,
spreading hatred in their churches, and commemorating
mass-murderers
. "THOU SHALT NOT BEAR FALSE
WITNESS AGAINST THY NEIGHBOR" is only one
of the commandments these false Christians love to break.

Yes i did. And there are also Armenian members in TARC. (Turkish Armenian Reconciliation Commission)

Their is a word for Armenians like that and it`s call Traitors...


AR Rothstein
--------------------



Well my point is that there are good and bad in every race, as im sure you know. i have about 5 jewish friends and they are great guys i dont really give a crap what kind of policy the Israeli government pursues because i talk with them about the Genocide and all and they identify as jews who have also been victims.

Their are many scholars in Israel fighting against the governments denialist policy of the Armenian Genocide.


Tigran, February 2 2003
--------------------




Here we go....

What have Armenians ever done to anybody? The jews helped the turks commit Genocide upon the Armenian Nation....


We are looking at the big picture not the jews in your life..


You talk with the Israeli Goverment? Wow... Big man you are.... You don`t give a crap? You don`t give a crap about jewish Anti Armenianism? You don`t give a crap about jewish involvment in the Genocide? You don`t give a crap about jews crushing the Armenian genocide resolution? Like I told you before you have alot to learn...


Many? A handfull? Who you think you are kidding? The jews are 100% in the turks denialist camp...

A.R. Rothstein
--------------------



Who cares about your personal relationship with Jews? This is politics. I have Turkish "friends" too. But I never confuse my personal relationships to them with politics.

And I never ever for a minute believe that they are my friends. They are just my "friends". Do you see the difference?

Wake up. They are not you friends.


Zinvor
--------------------



I am not confusing this with politics. What i am trying to say is that every single jew is not a criminal and does not condone the policies of their powerfull lobby and that every jew isnt a bastard. its like hating all blacks because you got mugged by one on a train.

Let me put it to you this way-- How would you like it if every American in LA looked at you with disdain and didnt give you a chance to show what kind of a person you are just because there are a lot of Armenian gangsters in LA. would you like being grouped into one big category with all the criminals and bad parts of your race even though your own views greatly differed.

I personally used to be a jew hater but now its different

"I am not confusing this with politics. What i am trying to say is that every single jew is not a criminal and does not condone the policies of their powerfull lobby and that every jew isnt a bastard. its like hating all blacks because you got mugged by one on a train."


Then why do you hate all turks?

No one is asking you to be a jew hater... The jews support Israel and they support their lobby so that makes the guilty... They are the ones who are fucking with us not the other way around....



AR Rothstein
--------------------


Holdwater: Loaded question from above: "What have Armenians ever done to anybody?" Absolutely nothing, pal. And the tone of this dialogue, full of wanting to beat up and kill, totally supports that notion.

Well.... it looks like this conversation slightly strayed from the original topic, "Slandering son of a bitch, Samuel Weems is dead!" However, the branches where the talk strayed to were pretty fascinating.

One of the intellectuals here claimed that they read at least one of the works of Bernard Lewis. If he did, all to his credit. I doubt he would have been able to stomach doing so, as he and the rest of his cronies have minds that are hermetically sealed, in various degrees.

What these gentlemen should ideally do, impossible though it might be, is let go of their fanaticism for a moment and latch on to a semblance of objectivity. As much as I know Armenian historians falsify the facts as a rule, there have been times when I've encountered tidbits that made my "fairness barometer" say, okay, here is something that could be true. For example, in Professor Marashlian's brave journey to engage in honest dialogue (which is exactly what is needed if any kind of reconciliation is to be achieved)... for him to have pulled up an Ottoman map saying, "Armenian Kingdom" was pretty cool.

We've all got brains, and the honest among us must determine what the truth is for ourselves, regardless of what the consensus of our "tribes" tell us are the real facts. That's an American, pioneering, independent spirit. So don't tell me, my Armenian and Greek friends, that a tops-in-his-field professor like Bernard Lewis has no credibility or that Sam Weems is a slanderer. That kind of haughty sniffing gets old mighty fast. Tell me exactly WHY they're not credible, and have the REAL FACTS (not your typically made-up ones) to back up your statements. Exactly the way I've done in this web site, when I counter the best of what the Armenians have to dish out, without hiding anything. If there's anything I'm unsure of, I'm man enough to say so. Go to the "Questions for the Armenians" page, and answer these questions... honestly... for starters. At the head of the list: why do Armenian web sites and Armenian professors avoid the subject of the Malta Tribunal, when preparations got underway for the Ottoman Empire to be tried for "genocide," during two and a half years of feverishly searching for proof, and with a crew of mostly Armenian researchers having every Ottoman document available, in Istanbul, under Allied control?

The honorable Sam Weems -- may he rest in peace

The honorable Sam Weems -- may
he rest in peace.

I know you don't like Sam Weems, because he was feisty and spoke his mind, and said things about the Armenians no Armenian wanted to hear. (And he didn't make his insults because of racist hatred against the Armenians... he did so because he was OUTRAGED. He was coming from a TRUE CHRISTIAN perspective, and he couldn't believe all the lies, treachery and deception that have been characteristic of your people throughout the ages, qualities that should have nothing to do with Christianity.) Yes, the truth hurts.... don't tell me he was a "slanderer," because one who slanders makes charges he knows aren't true. Which is exactly what Armenians (via the Armenian Assembly of America) did to Sam Weems, in the form of libel, when they lied and called him a "convicted felon" ... in that typical Armenian and Greek way of attempted character assassination. Have a paper bag handy in case you get the inevitable urge to hurl, but HONESTLY read his book. Read all the footnotes... read all the FACTS that have been backed up, by IMPARTIAL SOURCES. Read how he catches your own historian, Professor Richard Hovannisian, dishonestly contradict himself, time and again. Unfortunately, I'm fully aware doing so would be a lost cause with the overwhelming majority of you; Armenians NEED the enemy as a means of stabilizing their sense of identity and inner control.



I am not disgusted with the Armenians, and I pity them.

THE PURPOSE OF TALL ARMENIAN TALE (TAT)
...Is to expose the mythological “Armenian genocide,” from the years 1915-16. A wartime tragedy involving the losses of so many has been turned into a politicized story of “exclusive victimhood,” and because of the prevailing prejudice against Turks, along with Turkish indifference, those in the world, particularly in the West, have been quick to accept these terribly defamatory claims involving the worst crime against humanity. Few stop to investigate below the surface that those regarded as the innocent victims, the Armenians, while seeking to establish an independent state, have been the ones to commit systematic ethnic cleansing against those who did not fit into their racial/religious ideal: Muslims, Jews, and even fellow Armenians who had converted to Islam. Criminals as Dro, Antranik, Keri, Armen Garo and Soghoman Tehlirian (the assassin of Talat Pasha, one of the three Young Turk leaders, along with Enver and Jemal) contributed toward the deaths (via massacres, atrocities, and forced deportation) of countless innocents, numbering over half a million. What determines genocide is not the number of casualties or the cruelty of the persecutions, but the intent to destroy a group, the members of which are guilty of nothing beyond being members of that group. The Armenians suffered their fate of resettlement not for their ethnicity, having co-existed and prospered in the Ottoman Empire for centuries, but because they rebelled against their dying Ottoman nation during WWI (World War I); a rebellion that even their leaders of the period, such as Boghos Nubar and Hovhannes Katchaznouni, have admitted. Yet the hypocritical world rarely bothers to look beneath the surface, not only because of anti-Turkish prejudice, but because of Armenian wealth and intimidation tactics. As a result, these libelous lies, sometimes belonging in the category of “genocide studies,” have become part of the school curricula of many regions. Armenian scholars such as Vahakn Dadrian, Peter Balakian, Richard Hovannisian, Dennis Papazian and Levon Marashlian have been known to dishonestly present only one side of their story, as long as their genocide becomes affirmed. They have enlisted the help of "genocide scholars," such as Roger Smith, Robert Melson, Samantha Power, and Israel Charny… and particularly  those of Turkish extraction, such as Taner Akcam and Fatma Muge Gocek, who justify their alliance with those who actively work to harm the interests of their native country, with the claim that such efforts will help make Turkey more" democratic." On the other side of this coin are genuine scholars who consider all the relevant data, as true scholars have a duty to do, such as Justin McCarthy, Bernard Lewis, Heath Lowry, Erich Feigl and Guenter Lewy. The unscrupulous genocide industry, not having the facts on its side, makes a practice of attacking the messenger instead of the message, vilifying these professors as “deniers” and "agents of the Turkish government." The truth means so little to the pro-genocide believers, some even resort to the forgeries of the Naim-Andonian telegrams or sources  based on false evidence, as Franz Werfel’s The Forty Days of Musa Dagh. Naturally, there is no end to the hearsay "evidence" of the prejudiced pro-Christian people from the period, including missionaries and Near East Relief representatives, Arnold Toynbee, Lord Bryce, Lloyd George, Woodrow Wilson, Theodore Roosevelt, and so many others. When the rare Westerner opted to look at the issues objectively, such as Admirals Mark Bristol and Colby Chester, they were quick to be branded as “Turcophiles” by the propagandists. The sad thing is, even those who don’t consider themselves as bigots are quick to accept the deceptive claims of Armenian propaganda, because deep down people feel the Turks are natural killers and during times when Turks were victims, they do not rate as equal and deserving human beings. This is the main reason why the myth of this genocide has become the common wisdom.
