POPE AND WEST ABANDON ARMENIAN CHRISTIANS TO THE MASSACRE OF HERDOGAN (by Francesco Perretta)
On Sunday 27 September, Patriarch Karekin II, primate of all Armenian Christians, went to the Vatican to plead for the Pope's support in the face of the cowardly Turkish-Azerbaijani offensive of which his people are victims in Nagorno-Karabakh.
Bergoglio, a pope who flaunts an iron cross, welcomed the religious with substantial indifference, dedicating a few predictable phrases to the question. Who knows what a true pope would have said and done, with the golden cross like John Paul II compared to the neo-Ottoman criminal plan that Erdogan is carrying out by killing and imprisoning Christians, Kurds and various opponents. I did not mention Carol Wojtyla by chance, who miraculously survived the famous attack of Ali Ağca, armed hand of the Gray Wolves, one of the most active and violent formation among those inspired by the Panturchist ideology. Those who know this ideology should know well that it is a serious danger for all humanity, whose progressive progress is absolutely underestimated by the Western powers.
The Caucasus region of Nagorno-Karabakh, which has always been inhabited by Armenian populations, was arbitrarily subdued to Azerbaijan in 1923 by Stalin, with evidently anti-Christian purposes. In accordance with the law of the USSR, the region managed to proclaim itself an independent republic on January 6, 1992, and this led to a bloody war in the following 2 years, which resulted in more than 30,000 deaths and the victory on the ground of the Armenian forces with the de facto independence of the young democracy, without, however, following formal recognition by the international community. The UN and Western countries have always adopted a policy that is careless or even hostile to the rights of Armenian Christians, quite the opposite of what has happened for the Muslim populations of Kosovo, alongside whom NATO went to war.
It is literally shameful that all Western countries have abandoned Armenian Christians to their fate, a fate made up of incessant persecutions that have lasted for centuries. It should be remembered that the Armenian people were victims of a genocide of apocalyptic proportions: well over one and a half million dead, massacred, crucified, left to die of starvation and starvation during the "death marches" between 1915 and 1916. One extermination second only to that of the Nazis in Germany, a country that then supported the Ottoman Empire despite these atrocities, atrocities that inspired Hitler in the following years.
Even now Germany is flirting with Turkey and does not dare to go against Baku, even though it requests an immediate ceasefire and a negotiating table between the parties, obviously without emphasizing that the offended party is the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic.
We are not talking about Di Maio's silence, who is perhaps interested in maintaining commercial relations with Azerbaijan, Italy's leading oil supplier, which has Italy as its main trading partner. Thriving and growing business, as evidenced by the recent visit of Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev, received with great fanfare by Mattarella on February 21, 2020. What can we say? Gaddafi was better. On the other hand, France and Germany are jostling to occupy our positions.
Meanwhile, Turkey bombards, kills dozens of civilians, supplies drones and paramilitary troops, while the only power that supports Armenia is Russia, which has sent food and military supplies through Iran, a country certainly not happy with the mad expansionist aims. Turkey, which would like to build an immense empire from the Balkans to Central Asia, from Libya to Iraq, appropriating the entire eastern Mediterranean and, if possible, Jerusalem.
Erdogan's Pan-Turkism and Pan-Islamism no longer represent a propaganda dream but a solid and brazen project of nationalist expansionism, supported by a very strong army, with almost a million active and armed beyond belief.
Turkey plays dirty on the ambiguity of being a NATO member, which blocks the United States, worried about losing such a powerful ally in the Middle East chessboard. However, the times of Atatürk's secular and liberal democracy are long over, and Washington will have to realize, sooner or later, the great risk that it runs in keeping the snake at home.
Therefore, if the Western powers do not dare to go against Turkey mainly for economic reasons, with a behavior that makes current the biblical image of the great prostitute, "adorned with gold" and "drunk with the blood of the saints and the blood of martyrs", “With which the kings of the earth have fornicated”, I wonder what this pope is afraid of, the only one who, today as yesterday, should support positions free from politics and the conditioning of international affairs. I believe that Bergoglio is more concerned, as a good Jesuit, about maintaining good relations with the Islamic world, in a utopian illusion of peace and universal brotherhood. In any case we should pay more attention to the symbolic meaning of that iron cross. Perhaps this is the time described by the prophet Zechariah: "for behold, I will raise up a shepherd in the land, who will not care for those who are lost, who will not seek out the scattered, will not cure the sick, will not feed the hungry". "Woe to the foolish shepherd who abandons the flock!"
