The Foundation for the Struggle Against Baseless Allegations of Genocide (ASIMED) has begun an e-mail campaign to try and dissuade actor Mel http://www.wvwnews.net/story.php?id=861 from playing a role in a film that underscores claims of an alleged genocide of Anatolian Armenians by Ottoman Turks during World War I.
The president of ASIMED and faculty member at Atatürk University’s history department, Professor Savas Egilmez, said in order to raise support internationally for Armenian allegations, various Armenian diaspora groups had set aside a fund of $100 million and this money had been given to Hollywood film production companies to encourage the making of such a film. Egilmez noted that more than one such Hollywood company is preparing to shoot a film supporting the Armenian view.“It is now being said that actor Mel Gibson is to play a role in one of these films. There is a push to have the film shot at Icon Productions, the company Gibson is a partner in,” said Egilmez.
