The 1915 massacre or genocide, in April of that year, of over
1 million Armenians and other groups by the Turkish regime is
well-documented. The Turks like the Nazis kept extensive records and
there is no doubt that a genocide occurred (if the word genocide is
allowed to be used apart from the Jewish experience).
Politics Trumps Morality To this day the Turks deny this genocide. The
U.S. in need of allies, especially with the problems in that part of
the world, sidesteps the issue. In addition, the Jews and their home
state of Israel, also stay clear of condemning Turkey even though at
the present Israel and Turkey have strained relations.
Israel And The Turkish Massacre Genocide is only important if it
plays into the foreign policy of a nation. Israel, though it claims
had suffered a Holocaust, refuses to condemn the Turkish massacre of
the Armenians. Israel goes a step beyond. Israel's Holocaust Museum
in Washington, D.C., and their similar museums that seem to crop up
everywhere, praise righteous Gentiles at the holocaust centers. They
not only never condemn Turkey, but do not have exhibits at the
holocaust memorials, concerning U.S.
companies that were complicit in the Holocaust. General Motors and
Ford subsidiaries supplied the German war machine. There was an
agreement about Israel and the Jews never condemning U.S. companies,
and their part in making the holocaust run smoothly.
IBM (International Business Machines) made sure its subsidiaries in
occupied Europe had their famous punch cards that facilitated the
roundup and extermination of Jews and others. This punch card system
not only had the trains running on time, but had personal information
about the Jews, making their roundup throughout Europe an easy task.
Genocide Is A Relative Concept Genocide will only be condemned by
Turkey, the U.S. and for that matter any country, when it is in their
national interest to do so.
The fact remains that as far as Turkey, the United States and Israel
are concerned, the Turkish massacre of the Armenians is to be swept
under the rug.
