THE MIRACLE A True Story PHOTOGRAPHIC APPENDIX September 6, 1955: A Turkish collage of false news. The extra edition of the newspaper Istanbul Express gives the signal for the pogrom against native Greeks in Constantinople. The news reads: "Our father Atatürk's house was destroyed by a bomb". A lie to ignite the fanaticism in the Turkish rabble. The BBC transmitted the news at 1 p. m., 5 whole hours before the bomb exploded!. 162 Leonidas Koumakis THE MIRACLE A True Story If you prefer a hard copy of the book, please send an email to HEC-Books@hec.greece.org Previous Page | Initial Page | Site Map | Next Page (163th of 204) © For Internet 2001 HEC and Leonidas Koumakis.
