(Our World Today)
Following in the path of 31 other countries including Germany, France, Italy, Canada, Russia, and Brazil, the United States has at last ‘recognized’ the Armenian genocide. Not that the United States ever denied it, but it officially avoided the word ‘genocide’ for 106 years for fear of angering the Turks.
But there are hidden depths here, because Israel still refuses to accept the word ‘genocide’ about the Armenian massacres. Every year since the 1980s a resolution is introduced in Israel’s parliament demanding that Israel also call it a genocide, and every year it is rejected. Why?
President Joe Biden made history this past weekend when he became the first sitting US president to recognize the massacre of as many as 1.5 million Armenian Christians by the Ottoman Empire present-day Turkey in the early twentieth century as a genocide.
It’s taken this long for the United States to officially describe horrific slaughter with accurate terminology because Turkey has long been seen as an important ally in the Middle East, and they are predictably hesitant to accept that classification. That the genocide is relatively unknown compared to those that occurred in the Soviet Union and Nazi Germany both of which seemed to be working from the Ottoman playbook has helped give cover to minimizing the gravity of what actually occurred.
