I delivered this paper in March 2002 at the Turkish-Armenian conference in Ann Arbor, Michigan. "A lot of water has run under the bridges", as we say in Turkish, to mean that a lot has happened since I read it at that date. I'll not go into it because Agos has come to be internationally known since the loss of my great friend (and editor-in-chief) Hrant. I'll only say this much: Agos is now 24 pages, is sold throughout Turkey, is widely followed and respected in intellectual circles, is available on the Internet. Hrant has founded this paper, has placed it right in the middle of the Turkish ordeal for real democracy, and made it famous by his death. Martyrs accomplish more after they pass away.
