This is not suicide or madness but a supreme donation to the liberation struggle. Let the world community call us adventurers, terrorists, or executioners, it is fine.
We decided to resort to force because the Turkish state and other countries protecting it neglect the rights of the Armenian people. For decades, the Armenian people have been waiting for the international court to resolve the Armenian issue.
