The Armenian Genocide (1915-1923) followed the Namibian Genocide
(1904-1907) in which the Germans murdered 0.1 million Namas and
Hereros in South West Africa . 1.5 million Armenians perished in the
Turkish-imposed Armenian Genocide (1915-1923). However Turkey denies
the Armenian Genocide and the US , US Zionists and Apartheid Israel
refuse to acknowledge the genocidal nature of the atrocity. British
and Australian invasion of Turkey in 1915 contributed to the deadly
and catastrophic Turkish xenophobia but British and Australian
historians have largely deleted this atrocity from their national
histories. While Armenian American celebrity Kim Kardashian has
demanded recognition of the 1.5 million-victim Armenian Genocide,
arguing that genocide ignored will yield more genocide, even the most
progressive of Australia 's major newspapers evidently does not want
its readers to read, know or think about this.
The Armenian Genocide.
The Armenian Genocide commenced on 24 April 1915, the day before the
Allied invasion Turkey at Gallipoli and 24 April is commemorated as
Armenian Genocide Day. The 25 April is commemorated as Anzac Day
by Australia and New Zealand after the Australian and New Zealand
Army Corps (ANZAC) that was involved in the invasion that occurred
after months of Allied shelling in the Dardanelles . The Turks
were being attacked in the West by the British, French, Australian
and New Zealand invaders and in the East by the Russians and this
greatly exacerbated xenophobia to a deadly and disastrous level. The
Armenian Genocide began with the rounding up of Armenian community
leaders and thence butchery of the Armenian population with millions
being driven into the Syrian desert to die. It is estimated that
1.5 million Armenians died in the Armenian Genocide (1915-1923)
(see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armenian_Genocide ).
Armenian Genocide denial by Turkey, the US, racist Zionists and
genocidal Apartheid Israel .
Turkey has consistently denied the reality of the Armenian Genocide
and indeed has made assertion of an Armenian Genocide a criminal
offence. The US , the pro-Zionists, the US B'nai B'rith (see:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-Defamation_League ), the racist
Zionists and the race-based, genocidal, Anglo-American racist Zionist
colony of Apartheid Israel all refuse to recognize the atrocity as
an Armenian Genocide.
Armenian American Kim Kardashian urges recognition of Armenian
Genocide.
Kim Kardashian and her sisters are famous as lifestyle entrepreneurs.
Kimberly Noel "Kim" Kardashian (born October 21, 1980 ) is an American
businesswoman, socialite, television personality, model, and actress.
She is known for the TV reality series that she shares with her
family called "Keeping Up with the Kardashians". Her paternal
great-grandparents emigrated from Armenia to Los Angeles .
"Kardashian" in Armenian means "stonemason". Kim Kardashian has
two sisters, Kourtney and Khloe, and one brother, Robert. She has
stepbrothers Burton Jenner, Brandon Jenner, and reality TV star Brody
Jenner, step-sister Casey Jenner, and half-sisters Kendall Jenner
and Kylie Jenner (see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kim_Kardashian ).
Kim Kardashian has spoken thus about the Armenian Genocide (2011):
"My family and I are incredibly proud of our heritage. My dad taught me
a lot about Armenian culture, and I have a strong connection with my
roots. Every year, I honor the memory of the martyrs who were killed
during the 1915 Armenian Genocide. Even though so many countries
around the world recognize the Genocide, the government of Turkey
still denies it.
It happened before Rwanda , Darfur , and the Holocaust. Maybe none of
those other genocides would have happened if more nations had condemned
the Armenian Genocide, when 1.5 million Armenians were massacred.
Some people might wonder why I'm talking about history on my blog. And
that's what I'm trying to show...it's not history. Until this crime
is resolved truthfully and fairly, the Armenian people will live
with the pain of what happened to their families and the fear of what
might happen again to their homeland. So out of respect for all those
innocent people that died, I'm putting a spotlight on it today.
Today, thousands of Armenians will come together in Los Angeles
to protest against the denial of the genocide and urge the United
States government to recognize the Armenian Genocide. I hope that I
can bring some attention to this today.
And, this year, April 24 falls on Easter Sunday. Armenians are the
first Christian Nation in the world, and almost everyone will be
in church to celebrate Easter. Even on this really happy day, we're
going to be remembering the Genocide.
There's going to be a National Day of Prayer in churches across
America to celebrate Easter and commemorate the Genocide.
My thoughts and prayers are with all my fellow Armenians on this really
important day. I stand proud with you always" (see Kim Kardashian,
"Time to recognize the Armenian Genocide", Celebuzz, 21 April 2011:
http://kimkardashian.celebuzz.com/2011/04/21/kim-kardashian-armenian-genocide-protest-recognize/
).
Australian Armenian Genocide ignoring and genocide ignoring in general.
Australia was intimately connected with the Armenian Genocide because
its invasion of Turkey helped precipitate the genocidal destruction
of the first Christian nation in the World. While Australia 's
invasion of Turkey at Gallipoli is regarded by historians as a
key event in Australia 's history and nation building, the linked
Armenian Genocide is scrupulously ignored by Australian historians
writing histories of Australia . Indeed Australia has been involved
in 24 genocidal atrocities, 10 of them ongoing, but these are
utterly ignored by Australian media, academics, politicians and
people. Politically correct racist (PC racist) White Australia
declares itself to be non-racist but has been involved in - and
continues to be involved in - appalling genocidal atrocities,
noting that genocide represents the ultimate in racism (see
Gideon Polya, "Australian Anzac, Armenian Genocide. Australia
's secret genocide history", MWC News, 25 April 2011:
http://mwcnews.net/focus/analysis/10256-australian-anzac-a-armenian-genocide.html
).
Australian genocide ignoring, and ignoring of the Armenian Genocide
in particular, is well illustrated by recent censorship by The Age
newspaper, arguably Australia's most progressive Mainstream medium
but pro-Zionist like the rest of the Australian Mainstream media. On 2
November 2011, The Age On-line National Times published an article by
lawyer and writer Emma McDonald about the Kardashian celebrities and
entitled , "Why do so many of us keep up with the vacuous Kardashians":
http://www.theage.com.au/opinion/society-and-culture/why-do-so-many-keep-up-with-the-vacuous-kardashians-20111101-1mt2m.html
. Key quotes: " the reality is that millions of people follow the
lives of the Kardashians. I take my hat (and fascinator) off to them
for successfully and ruthlessly feeding the insatiable appetite of an
audience hungry for news and information about a bunch of fabulous
nobodies. " Kim Kardashian was visiting Australia in early November
2011 but left very upset after only a few days.
I sent the following 2 carefully researched comments on the
article to The Age but both were completely censored, evidently as
containing material that the Age does not want its readers to read,
know or think about (for details of the article and the censorship see:
http://gpolya.newsvine.com/_news/2011/11/01/8584472-australian-writer-slams-armenian-us-celebrities-as-vacuous-kardashians
).
Censored comments #1: "Kim Kardashian is not just a "fabulous nobody"
as asserted by the article but a person whose serious commitment to
human rights should be urgently emulated by presently genocide-ignoring
academics, journalists, politicians and Mainstream "celebrities"
around the world, not least in look-the-other-way Australia.
Thus this is Kim Karadashian on the Armenian Genocide: "My family and
I are incredibly proud of our heritage. My dad taught me a lot about
Armenian culture, and I have a strong connection with my roots. Every
year, I honor the memory of the martyrs who were killed during the
1915 Armenian Genocide. Even though so many countries around the world
recognize the Genocide, the government of Turkey still denies it. It
happened before Rwanda , Darfur , and the Holocaust. Maybe none of
those other genocides would have happened if more nations had condemned
the Armenian Genocide, when 1.5 million Armenians were massacred."
Kim Kardashian is saying what the Mainstream steadfastly refuses
to say. Thus the US refuses to acknowledge the genocidal reality
of the Armenian Genocide and is complicit in an ongoing Palestinian
Genocide, Iraqi Genocide, Somali Genocide, Afghan Genocide and Climate
Genocide (Google these terms describing ongoing genocides recognized by
non-racist scholars but essentially unknown to the taxpayer-funded ABC,
"Muslim Holocaust, Muslim Genocide" and "Climate Genocide")."
Censored comments #2: "My previously-submitted, carefully researched
comments having not been published, I feel morally compelled to
re-state their essence in another way.
Kim Kardashian is not a "vacuous Kardashian" or "fabulous nobody"
- she has spoken out about the Armenian Genocide (1.5 million
murdered, 1915-1923) and the vital, core message (remorselessly
ignored by Mainstream media, academics and politicians in the Western
Murdochracies and Lobbyocracies) that ignoring genocide helps lead
to new genocides.
Thus the following US Alliance-imposed genocides ignored by
the mainstream (war-and occupation-related deaths/ refugees in
parentheses): Palestinian Genocide (0.3 million/7 million), Iraqi
Genocide (4.6 million/5-6 million), Afghan Genocide (5.6 million/3-4
million), Somali Genocide (2.2 million/2.0 million), Pakistani Pashtun
Genocide (0.1 million?/2 million), Libyan Genocide (0.04 million/0.1
million) and the worsening Climate Genocide (about 10 billion people,
overwhelmingly non-European, are predicted by top climate scientists
to perish this century due to unaddressed man-made global warming).
To discover what Australian and Western mainstream academics ,
politicians and media (notoriously the taxpayer-funded ABC) resolutely
ignore simply Google the above phrases. Holocaust ignoring is far,
far worse than repugnant holocaust denial.?"
While non-historian, non-academic, non-college graduate Kim Kardashian
has spoken out about the Armenia Genocide, given an estimate of how
many people died (1.5 million) and enunciated the core message that
genocide ignoring may lead to further genocides, leading Australian
historian Professor Geoffrey Blainey (Companion of the Order of
Australia and formerly of the University of Melbourne) totally ignored
the Armenian Genocide in his books "A Short History if the World"
(Viking 2000), "A Very Short History of Australia" (Viking, 2004)
and "The Great Seesaw. A new view of the Western World, 1750-2000"
(Macmillan, 1988).
British ignoring of the Armenian Genocide.
British Imperialism against Turkey and the Ottoman Empire (tricking
Turkey into WW1; British invasion of Iraq , 1914; British invasion of
the Dardanelles , 1915) evidently exacerbated Turkish xenophobia. The
Armenian Genocide occurred after months of Anglo-French shelling of
the Dardanelles and specifically commenced the night before the Allied
invasion at Gallipoli. Yet the Armenian Genocide is shockingly ignored
by historians writing histories of England e.g. it is not mentioned,
for example, in "A History of Britain" by E.H. Carter and R.A.F. Mears
(Clarendon, 1960), G.M. Trevelyan's "History of England" (Longmans,
1960), Colin McEvedy's "The Century World History Factfinder"
(Century 1984), and Simon Schama's "A History of Britain" (BBC,
2002). Andrew Roberts' 736-page "A History of the English-speaking
Peoples" (Harper, 2007) merely allocates the following words:
"nationalism is the antithesis of a cosmopolitan empire" [Hugh
Trevor-Roper]. Although Armenians, who suffered badly, would take
exception to that generalisation being extended to the Ottoman Empire
" and H.G. Wells' "The Outline of History" (Cassell, revised edition,
1951). merely refers to post-WW1 massacres of Armenians: "He [the
Turk] was not only driving back the attacking Greek, but he was,
after his age-long traditions, massacring Armenians". Just imagine
a history of Germany that failed to mention the WW2 Holocaust.
Summary.
The Armenian Genocide killed 1.5 million Armenians in 1915-1923 but
has been denied as a genocide by Turkey , the US , racist Zionists
and genocidal Apartheid Israel . Armenian American entrepreneur
and celebrity Kim Kardashian has urged recognition of the Armenian
Genocide, indicating that genocide ignored may lead to genocide
repeated. While British, French, New Zealand and Australian invasion
of Turkey on 25 April 1915 evidently disastrously exacerbated Turkish
xenophobia and helped precipitate the Armenian Genocide, this atrocity
has been remarkably excluded from Australian History and World
History works by Australian historians and from histories of England
and Britain . Genocide ignored yields genocide repeated and genocide
ignoring is far, far worse than repugnant genocide denial or holocaust
denial because the latter at least admit the possibility of debate.
