More than any other nation, Israel has the moral obligation to recognize the Armenian Genocide!
Now more than ever is the time for Israel to say - “We recognize. We can feel the pain and suffering of the Armenian Genocide victims on our skin because unfortunately we went through the same hell.” It is finally the time to set the record straight, to bring into the light one of the darkest chapters of history. How long can we look away, pretend, resist, and play politics? If nothing else, by now we should have learned one thing really well; unless we act, history will repeat itself.
Again and again, just remember what Hitler’s said before the Holocaust – "Who, after all, speaks today of the annihilation of the Armenians?"
More than 1.5 million innocent victims of the Armenian Genocide whisper in our conscience - “We need to rest in peace...”
Monday, January 28, 1918 The German General Hans Friedrich von Seeckt, at the time Chief of Staff of the Turkish Army, is instructed to prevent Turkish atrocities against the Armenians of the Caucasus, since the Russian armies had fallen apart in the aftermath of the Russian Revolution and the Turks were advancing almost unopposed.
Friday, January 28, 1916 A circular telegram orders the destruction of orphans.
In its attempt to carry out its purpose to resolve the Armenian question by the destruction of the Armenian race, the Turkish government has refused to be deterred neither by our representations, nor by those of the American Embassy, nor by the delegate of the Pope, nor by the threats of the Allied Powers, nor in deference to the public opinion of the West representing one-half of the world. - Count Wolff-Metternich More quotes
