I, as a Palestinian and a human being, denounce all genocides and Holocausts that have been perpetrated against all humans. It amazed though how ONE group of people like to own a definite monopoly on suffering and deny others their suffering in history. Any decent historian will tell you that what happened to Armenians in 1915 was clear-cut genocide and a Holocaust. It is the duty of every Armenian to educate world opinion about these facts. This duty is double for the vast Armenian populace in the USA, where many Armenians are educated and influencial. Lobby the congress toward recognition of your Holocaust. Elie Weisel has no right to deny you what actually happened to you!! Armenians should pool money and open a Armenian Holocaust Museum and invite everyone, including the scum Weisel, so that he can see for himself the pictures and the numbers of killed and displaced. Turkey is a regime that continues to deny people such as the Kurds, even the basic right to speak Kurdish. Turkey is in denial to the events of 1915 much as Israel is in denial for what it did to us Palestinians in 1948. So the two pariah states have forged a common destiny and are close allies. Both states are offenders of human rights yet they get unprecedented support from the US. This is a travesty. The Armenian people/organizations should forge ties with other people who have suffered in recent histories so that the story may be told. Ties ought to be established with the African-Americans and Native Americans and Arab-Americans and they ought to endorse candidates for President and donate money for candidates who are willing to listen and acknowledge history. The Jews have turned the endorsements of candidates that support their agenda(Israel of course) into an art. Why not the Armenians? The Armenians are very talented people and have reached high places in the diaspora. It is a disservice for the victims of the Armenian Holocaust that their story has not been told. Long Live Armenia Long Live Palestine
