U.S. and Israel Should Recognize the Armenian Genocide (BloomBerg)

[azyr]

Now Genocides are recognized based on geopolitical situations
Hey listen to me and do what I say or I will recognize who you killed 300 years ago.

To be fair that was always the case. No one cares who died, modern day memorials are monuments of power and will.

For example, even in the second world war there were more people killed then just the jews alone yet no one even mentions them. It's come to a point where most people think the whole war revolved around people massacring jews but no one else. Does anyone even realize how many Turks where persecuted the same way in that war alone?

What about the many massacres happening RIGHT NOW? Does anyone bat an eye? Or those that have happened for the last century that decimated populations and changed demographics by not relocating but straight out eliminating the people there.

Hello Spain? Anyone care to look and what true vile and brutal genocide looks like? It was used in spain in ALL of it's forms to get where the country is at today.

No, no one is important and everybody dies. The will of the people can only be used by those who wield the power to use it.

Turkey has been at the receiving end of this phenomena for the last 20 years. First it was Armenians being deported in bad conditions thus them dying way (while ignoring the fact that the exact same population was actively at war with Turkey and terrorizing the muslim population there). Then it evolved into the active killing of 2 million Armenians in the area where only 150 to 250k at the most lived.

Then we've started to be accused of Kurdish genocides (this is very ironic), and somewhat lately of (get this) GREEK genocide?!

This was and always will be a political tool, not a humanitarian one.

Turkey should research/recognize and promote all the colonial era genocides of the European countries that try to use the events of 1915 as a political stick against Turkey. Why isn't this being done ?

Ironic when you consider the greatest genocide in history was against the native Americans. Not just a people or a nation but an entire continent was slaughtered of its original peoples to be replaced by settlers from far off lands.
Israel is a state that was established through the destruction of the people who were there before European Jewry settled there.

To be honest why do so many South American countries recognise the Armenian genocide what have we done to them??

A lot of those countries are easily bought. Many of them have Armenian populations.

In other words the Armenians are trying to stay relevant when nobody really cares.

Jews dont like the rivals in this realm.
Jews want to be merely victim of the history thats why they would never US to recognize this fallacy.
Jewish organization even warned Ukraine not to exegerate Ukrainian Holocoust further than Jewish.
