    Video Shows Greek Coast Guard Attempting to Sink Refugee Boat in Aegean

    February 20, 2016

    In footage reportedly taken by the crew of a Turkish fishing boat and the Turkish Coast Guard on November 12, 2015, a member of the Greek Coast Guard is filmed attempting to sink an inflatable boat filled with 58 refugees trying to cross the Aegean into Europe. The drowning refugees, among them children, were rescued by members of Turkey’s Coast Guard and taken back to the Turkish port of Didim, where many migrants begin the treacherous journey from Turkey to the Greek islands. Commander Rear Admiral Hakan Ustem of the Turkish Coast Guard later issued an official complaint to his Greek counterpart, Vice Admiral Athanasios Athanasopoulous. In 2015 alone, an estimated 80,000 refugees were saved by the Turkish coast guard while trying to make their way to Greece.

    Similar incidents took place in August and October of 2015, in which masked assailants, often armed, were seen deliberately disabling boats carrying migrants and asylum seekers by damaging or removing their engines or puncturing the hull of the boats. In some cases, witnesses said the boats were towed back into Turkish waters. In response to these reports, Eva Cossé, a specialist on Greece at Human Rights Watch said “disabling boats in the Aegean makes an already dangerous journey even more likely to result in death” and that “these criminal actions require an urgent response from the Greek authorities”. Human Rights Watch has also reported cases where Greek border guards sent refugees back to Turkey via the land border along the Evros River in northern Greece. To date, Turkey has registered over 2.5 million Syrian refugees, making it the largest host of refugees in the world.

    Remembering the Circassian Deportations and Massacres

    For over a century, from 1763 onwards, the peoples of Circassian lands situated in the northwestern Caucasus defended their homelands against Russian expansion.

    The Circassian people, who by and large adopted Islam in the eighteenth century, were almost entirely affected by the terrible destruction of their communities and the forced displacement from their historic homeland during the last decades of the Tsarist regime. Russian General Yevdokimov was tasked to execute this policy of forced displacement as of 1860 with newly formed mobile columns of riflemen and Cossack cavalry.

    By Peter Brown
    Published in the Daily Beast on December 12, 2013

December 14 marks the seventh anniversary of the death of Ahmet Ertegun, a dear friend who left a remarkable imprint on the world. The whole idea of Ahmet-son of a Turkish diplomat, race relations pioneer, rock-and-roll impresario (he did manage to get Led Zeppelin to reunite in tribute to him, albeit posthumously)-is so unlikely it can be said he could only have happened in America. read more

    Remembering the Turkish brothers who helped change race relations in Americ

    Nearly 80 years ago, two young Turkish brothers arrived in a deeply segregated Washington, D.C., and set on a course to help change race relations in America.

This week, on the 90th anniversary of the founding of the modern Turkish state and through the prism of a “post-racial” America, it is worth recalling this remarkable journey. read more
