"Stockholm -- On February 17th, 2007, the GENOCIDE MEMORIAL WALL in Tarzana in southern California, USA, was unveiled. The monument was raised in remembrance of the victims of Seyfo, the Assyrian genocide during 1914-1918, and of the Simele massacre in Iraq in 1933, when more than 3000 Assyrians were murdered by the Iraqi military. Among the speakers during the ceremony was author Rosie Malek-Yonan, who has written The Crimson Field, a book about Seyfo.
