Vanetsi Posted July 7, 2005 Report Share Posted July 7, 2005 (edited) Hi. My name is ****** and I'm from ********, TX. This is my first post on hyeforum. One would think that surviving the hell of genocide would cause one to denounce genocide in all it's forms. But Elie Wiesel, a survivor of the Holocaust and member of a prominent Holocaust commemoration committee, does virtually nothing in the US in furthering the recognition of the Armenian Genocide because of Israeli and American pressure. What do you think of this pansy? Edited July 3, 2024 by Yervant1 privacy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zartonk Posted July 8, 2005 Report Share Posted July 8, 2005 (edited) Medzn ********! Verchapes, Barigaloost..! Welcome, and as far as Wiesel is concerned, him and his likes are what I call the problem. Good to finally have you here..!

What do you think of this pansy? style_images/master/snapback.png You may or may not know that Wiesel's book was a BIG LIE. Just like the jewish adventures of WWII. He is one of the vast majority of his tribe trying to maintain shoa business despite all the lies and they sure don't want any competition. Do we know you from elsewhere? Welcome.

The entire essence of Wiesel is the typical representation of "look what happened to us, only to us" self-centered thinking. It is not necessarily anti-Armenian, it's just not interested in Armenians or anyone else. I've heard him in interviews, and I get this feeling of both believing in what he is saying and at the same time detecting a phony intellectuality, as if he is wearing a mask and is playing a part. I think his experience is genuine but there are also the “milking-of-the-issue” characteristics in his low pitched, dolorous sounding tone. In the past he has put his signature in acknowledging the Armenian genocide, but he also has proven to be susceptible to pressures from different Jewish groups with anti-Armenian postures. So he is more like a politician rather than a true intellectual in his behaviour. I guess that emphasizes his phoniness.

The actor has explained that the Jewish experience is unique, and any comparisons with it only serve to diminish its character and value of uniqueness. According to the actor the Shoa is unique because the jews are unique and uniqueness can not be shared. God has chosen them as the Chosen race because of its uniqueness, anyone else's experience no matter how harrowing pales in comparison to the "unique experience". Story tells that the actor was an inmate in a concentration camp . As the Russians were advancing toward the camp the guests at the camp were given the choice of moving west with the retreating german armies or stay put and be liberated by the communists. The actor must have taken out his abacus calculator and done some quick sums and decided to move west with the german army instead of allowing himself to be liberated.

karakash Posted August 5, 2005 Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 Archbishop Avak was our parish priest in NJ before he went to Iraq - quite an impressive figure who should be the primate one day in the Eastern Diocese. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanetsi Posted August 5, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 (edited) He should have been the primate years ago, but unfortunately it's all politics. It's never about merit. As Abp. Avak says, "It is the age of mediocrity." He's a brilliant man and talented leader. Edited August 5, 2005 by Vanetsi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
