Azerbaijani intelligentsia demands to burn Eylisli’s works: You have to be immoral to become friends with Armenians
Azerbaijani national writer Ekrem Eylisli, author of the book “Stone dreams” which is about the massacre of Armenians is still being haunted. In Baku, they seriously call on to deprive him of his state awards and citizenship and to deport him from the country. The MPs call on to cut off his ear and the pro-governmental intellectuals suggest burning all the works of the author publicly.
Murad Kohnagala writes in Kulis.az, “Our image as barbarians is forever engraved in the memory of the Armenians. They can never be friend to us. They are our eternal enemies. This feud will end only with the end of the planet. We cannot make friends with the Armenians with the help of such humanistic works like Ekrem’s. It’s also wrong to give Armenians autonomy in Karabakh and allow them to live on these lands. We should occupy the lands by arms and to drive them all out of there. One must be immoral to be friends with the Armenians.”
The so-called Union of Refugees issued a statement in which they suggest to exclude from all the school textbooks the works written by Ekrem Eylisli. “We do not want to bring our children up by the works of Armenian writer,” Modern.az quotes the statement. The statement also says, “Let’s give Eylisli, who is so delighted by the “spiritual values” of his own people, to Armenians. From now on, let everyone call him not Ekrem Eylisli, but Aram Aguletsi.”
