The Decemberists - ConstantinopleO, the minarets of ConstantinopleAre plated gold, ivory and opalTheir cupolas all onion domed and lightAnd the magistrate of ConstantinopleHas made a match; his family was hopefulTheir daughter would be promised a wedding nightBut the Sultan's weary bride, she won't be wed tonightNor fall beneath a canopy to lieFor far across the town, her lover's lying drownedAnd painted by the Bosporus in blueAnd there's nothing for a broken heart to do.Down the dirty streets of ConstantinopleThe beggars weep, their hands all wide openTheir severed leper limbs all swing and sway.At a windowsill in ConstantinopleOur Hero sighs to melodies notefulAnd gazes on the walls that hold his love.But the Sultan's weary bride, she won't be wed tonightNor fall beneath a canopy to lieFor far across the town, her lover now is drownedAnd painted by the Bosporus in blueAnd there's nothing for a broken heart to do.No, there's nothing for a broken heart to do.Except cry.From the EP: Picaresquetieshttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Picaresquetieshttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Decemberistshttp://www.decemberists.com/©The Decemberists©Kill Rock Stars The Decemberists...

1204AD Crusaders Destroy Greek Byzantines ConstantinopleCrusaders Attack and Destroyed Greek Orthodox Constantinople 1204 AD. They knew that Constantinople was a richer prize than all the Holy Land - and that it could be taken more easily. Constantinople had withstood Moslem armies for 5 centuries, it now fell. The imperial capital was stormed by the very men whose forefathers had promised rescue a century before. Untold treasures of gold, silver, and holy relics were plundered during the subsequent pillage and rape. Literary classics, great and wonderful works of art and treasures untold were either destroyed or carried away. Many of its priceless treasures were carried off to Europe. But the greatest prize of all were the relics. bones, heads and arms of saints. the crown of thorns, St. Thomas, the doubter's finger. The patriarch fled on an ass without a single attendant. Tombs were robbed. Women were outraged. Churches were desecrated. Horses were ridden in the sanctuary. Communion cups and sacred vessels were used as drinking cups in drunken revels. Prostitutes danced on the altar. Icons, even portraits of Christ were used as gaming tables. The Byzantine emperor was murdered by his own people in a revolt. Venice took much of the coast and islands of the Empire, and the crusaders set up a 1204AD Crusaders...

The Armenian Patriarchate of Constantinople is today one of the Patriarchates of the Armenian Apostolic Orthodox Church, but within living memory it exerted a very significant political role, and today still exercises a spiritual authority, which earns it considerable respect among other Orthodox churches, both Chacedonian and non-Chalcedonian. Despite a huge diminution in the number of its faithful, it is still the largest Christian community in Constantinople. On March 10, 1998 - His beatitude Archbishop Karekin II Patriarch of Constantinople passed away, and was succeeded by Archbishop Mesrob Mutafyan.The Patriarchate of Constantinople plays a highly significant role in the life of the world-wide Armenian community and runs as an autonomous Patriarchate in teh Armenian Church body, and also retains its historic prestige for maintaining the rich liturgical tradition of the see of Constantinople. Patriarch Mesrob Mutafyan serves as one of the vice-presidents of the Holy Synod of Armenian Orthodox bishops. It maintains close relations to the Etchmiadzon and Cilician Catholicates and the Jerusalem Patriarchate, it cherishes its heritage of scholarship and, in the absence of its own seminary, encourages ordinants and clergy to pursue further studies in Etchmiadzin, Jerusalem, or in foreign universities.

The song is 'unfortunately' - Dystyhos (Δυστυχώς) by Peggy Zina (Πέγκυ Ζήνα). Constantinople (Κωνσταντινούπολις), the city of Roman Emperor Constantine, was established to be a Christian city. It was a town of Ancient Greeks living in Thrace before that, called Byzantion. The Turks have really no place or connection to this city. Not only were they never Christians, or part of Byzantium, but the triple walls erected around the city were meant to keep their race out, invaders like Attila.The Turkish 'istanbul' (which is not a turkish word but a Greek compound name 'eis thn poli' which means 'to the city'. This Turkish city is overcrowded, and its main tourist attractions are harems and belly dancers. The Turkish Istanbul should be a different city, and compared to the other cities of Islam such as Cairo, Baghdad, Qurtuba, Agra and Isfahan, then Istanbul doesn't strike us a great accomplished city. Yet, Constantinople was the great city of all Christendom and of all Europe.The dance in this video is Hasapiko (χασάπικο ), the butcher's dance. It is a Byzantine dance of Constantinople, and it used to be called makellarikos horos (μακελλάρικος χορός). It is the tango of Greece, full of elegance and refinement. It is very popular in weddings especially.Enjoy! A Dance for...
BLOG:http://occidentalsoapbox.blogspot.com/Welcome to Islamic Crusades, Episode 1: The Occupation of Constantinople. In the intro to this series, I quoted Bill Clintons 2001 address in which he cited the Crusades as a root cause for the 9/11 attacks, and specifically singled out the sack of Jerusalem in 1099 as an example of Western brutality that still poisons our relations with the Muslim world today. In this video I will tell the story of the merciless siege, destruction and exploitation of a great Christian city. The atrocities were at least as horrific as those in Jerusalem; men, women and children were massacred, the city was burned and looted, and ancient Christian churches were destroyed or converted into Mosques. It not only marked the fall of a city, but the death of a culture, and the end of a 1,100 year old empire. This terrible event occurred in 1453 AD, 354 years closer to our own time than the siege of Jerusalem; yet it is not used by Christians to justify violence, it is not cited as motivation for Christian suicide bombers to kill civilians, in fact you would be hard-pressed to find it mentioned anywhere in the public discourse. Heres the story. Islamic Crusades...

CONSTANTINOPLE, as it should have been. It includes the Greek & Roman (Byzantine) monuments of the city of Constantinople. Constantinople (Greek: Κωνσταντινούπολις, Konstantinoúpolis, or Πόλις, Polis) was first founded on the site in the early days of Greek colonial expansion, probably around 671-662 BC. It was the capital of the Roman Empire (330-395), the Byzantine/East Roman Empire (395-1204 and 1261-1453), the Latin Empire (1204-1261.Depending on the background of its rulers, it often had several different names at any given time; among the most common were Byzantium (Greek: Byzantium), New Rome (Greek: Νέα Ῥώμη, Константинополь - Царьгра́д in Russian, Latin: Nova Roma), although this was an ecclesiastical rather than an official name, Constantinople. Constantinople appears as a city of wondrous majesty, beauty, remoteness and nostalgia in William Butler Yeats' 1926 poem Constantinople,...
