It is a myth that Ottoman Jews have engineered the Armenian genocide. Many of the Ottoman Young Turk leaders mentioned above, were also antisemitic, even though some of them had ancestors who were forced to convert to Islam with death threats. (It is also known that some Nazi leaders had distant Jewish ancestors, but this is not enough to conclude that the Holocaust the Holocaust on the Jews.) If you live in the United States or many EU countries, you will see how much the Jews and Armenian communities help each other. It is true that the Israeli government is not emphasizing the Armenian genocide, and I feel sorry about it, but this is only due to the fact that Turkey is a NATO country (that is so far recognizing Israel) and Israel is already surrounded by hostile Muslim countries. In other words, it is politics only, and it does not reflect the attitude of the Jews towards Armenians. In any case, only a small minority of misguided people imagine that Jews engineered the Turkish killing of the Armenians. Most Armenians knew that the killing of the Armenians was ordered by the Young Turks who wanted to keep the Eastern territories under Turkish control, but let me also remind you that in addition to the Ottomans, the KURDS were also guilty. The Young Turks also used the Kurds as executioners because they did not have the manpower to kill 1.5 to 2 million Armenians, and so, the Ottomans told the Kurds that if they kill the Armenians, then, they would be given the Armenian lands as reward! Kurds were not punished for that crime, and if you wonder how come so many Kurds currently reside in those Eastern regions of Turkey that used to be inhabited by Armenians, you now have the answer: The Kurds got the Armenian lands as reward from the Ottomans for helping the Armenian massacre!

turco, because ASALA was never representing or even a part of the Armenian community. They were a militant branch of terrorists, not representatives of the government like your MIT. Why don't turks condemn its terrorism against Kurds? Or all its minorities, even under Kemalism? Kemal completed what talaat pasha started. Nationalists on both sides have blood on their hands, but the difference is that the turks were allowed to do so with the governments blessings and the Armenians were dependent on illegal weapons and eventually, out of revenge. Is this so foreign to you? You should know your own history and you're only lying to youself.

I think Israel wants to keep on denying the Armenian Genocide, because most of the people who orchestrated the genocide were not really of Turkish ancestry, but Crypto-Jewish ancestry. Ilker Basbug, Yasar Buyukanit, Other Generals, Enver Pasha, Talat Pasha, Cemal Pasha, and even former prime minister Tansu Ciler, they were all of Donmeh Jewish ancestry, hence the reason why the Jewish control of Turkey is so strong, it might be as strong or even stronger then how Jews controlled Russia and Ukraine under the Bolshevik regime. European Zionists backed the Young Turk Regime (Crypto Jews) to destroy the Ottoman Caliphate, so European Zionists, as well as Bolshevik Russians, backed the Young Turk regime to massacre the Armenian populace (due to the fact Armenians were actually the backbone of the Ottoman Economy). So they thought by massacreing the Armenians, International Jewry thought by backing the Young Turk Regime (which was ran by Donmeh Jews), they can destroy the economy of the empire and then, International Jewry thought gradually over time they can steal all the oil in the Middle East, then snatch Palestine from the Palestinians, to build Israel on top of the land of the Palestinians. Complicated story I have to say, but it is true, Jews have immense power in many countries, Turkey (Donmeh Jews who fled from Spain in the 15th century to Ottoman Lands and then abadoned their Spanish Jew identities to Turkify themselves completely), Egypt (I think Hosni Mubarak may have Jewish ancestry himself since he helps Israel so much), Saudi Arabia (I know the Saudi Royal Family's bloodline are traced to the Jews of Babylonia), Jordan, All Of Europe, All Of America, Some Places in Asia and so on. It is almost bizzare how much power Jews have in many countries, especially towards the Gentiles.

Oron thinks there is nothing comparable to the Jewish Holocaust??? He really must be joking, or uninformed. The Armenian genocide was perpetrated by non-Turkish, non-natives against the indigenous population of Anatolia for the purpose of personal gain and theft. It was MUCH WORSE than the Holocuast! Destroying 25% of the population devastated Turkey for almost 100 years, and many areas have never recovered at all. Armenians will be forever angry, but Turks should not be angry at Armenians... they should direct their anger at those who stole the country...and destroyed thousands of years of history in a fit of madness...because it wasn't their history...it was Armenian.

where istable leaches

where is?

Many Turks I know say that they acknowledge what happened to Armenians during WW1. Even some say it can be called genocide. But they ask why Armenians donot condemn ASALA attacks and they want to learn what they think about the Armenian revenges after 1916 in Erzinjan, Erzeroum, Bitlis, etc. I also want to know if you take this revenges as a rightful action.

Thank you Haim Oron.

Talaat Pasha was circassian; the Amalakites are not the Armenians in the bible (Cyrus was Armenian and well-loved for rebuilding the Temple in Jerusalem, and the Amalakites were a semitic tribe related to the semitic Jews). The German Kaiser probably was behind Adana. The Turks were jealous of the capitulations. The Holocaust was a tragedy for the Jews; however, I agree the Armenian genocide was an equal tragedy for the Armenians and should be remembered and understood by both people.

It's not likely that Israel will ever acknowledge the genocide, because the very genocide was instigated by the donmeh Jews of the Ottoman Empire who (1) were the ones who convinced Sultan Abdul Hamid for the Adana Massacres, and (2) were the leaders of the Young Turk movement who perpetrated the final genocide. Indeed, Talaat Pasha himself was a Jew, as were many other Young Turk leaders. The Jews saw Armenians as an economic in the Ottoman Empire, and some also consider their deep hatred towards the Amalakites (whom they consider to be the Armenians) as another factor.
