Re: Watertown Armenians in arow over ADL's anti-genocide stance
(Boston FOX affiliate TV channel publishes AP report re: ADL's reverse of course acknowledging Armenian massacres as genocide if the word existed when the massacres occurred; note the commentary by the Turkish individual claiming that by calling it genocide Turkey is being accused of things it did not commit)
(NY Fox affiliate follows suit)
(Same AP report detailing Foxman's backtracking is published in Worcester, Mass. newspaper)
(xxxish press agency publishes article detailing ADL's actions today wherein Foxman capitulated kind of)
(blogger for Kentucky newspaper discussing Foxman's actions today, history of political dispute re: Armenian genocide recognition; and, concluding that is understandable that there is much difference on this issue in the U.S. as the U.S. is still conflicted of its own 'darkest' chapters)

(Watertown paper republishes article re: Newton's consideration of sacking ADL)

(same article from Salem, Mass. paper is republished in Pennsylvania newssource)
(Chief U.S. correspondent for Israeli paper blogs on Foxman's capitulation; but misstates history and timeline of Watertown-ADL controversy; claims ADL was unfairly picked on by Armenian Americans as other American J-ewish advocacy groups are in line with ADL's original position; references these organizations desire to maintain warm relations between Israel and Turkey and protect Turkish J-ews from being subjected to revenge attacks)

I don't understand, wasn't the ADL worried that Holocaust recognition would cause trouble for xxxs in Germany or was that a cheap concession for the political power Israel and J-ews would obtain from Holocaust recognition? Foxman is still a hypocrit and GENOCIDE DENIER. This is an insincere basis for refusing to support Congressional recognition of the Armenian Genocide by the U.S.
As Elie Wiesel stated the failure of oppressors to recognize genocide is just another act of genocide and Mr. Foxman has no problems supporting the Turkish position that neither Turkey, the U.S. nor Israel should recognize our tragedy as GENOCIDE.
Imagine that one genocide denier (FOXMAN) relying on another genocide denier (WIESEL) for the insincere position that the massacres of Armenians by Turks would be considered genocide if that word existed when the acts occurred. Hmm.
So I guess then that the murder of xxxs by Germany was not a Holocaust or Genocide either because neither of those words existed between 1938-1944. Two j-ews (Wiesel, Lemkin) invented these words after both acts occurred.
If a genocide is not a genocide when it happens to Armenians then a Holocaust is not a Holocaust when it happens to J-ews. Hmm, maybe there was never a Holocaust. Oh yeah, it would have been a Holocaust if that word existed when it happened. Right, Mr. Wiesel?
Mel Gibson goes anti-semite on a cop in Malibu while in a drunken stupor, the ADL blasts him and it is international news.
The ADL plays Genocide flip-flop and refuses to support genocide recognition on a political level to protect Turkish j-ews and the story can barely get out of Massachussetts.
The real debate here is:
1. why are the American J-ewish advocacy groups so concerned about protecting Turkish j-ews from revenge attacks? (Why were they so adamant about Holocaust recognition notwithstanding the potential for 'revenge' attacks on J-ews in Eurpoean nations and elsewhere);
2. Who would attack Turkish J-ews in Turkey if the U.S. recognized the Armenian Genocide, why aren't these same groups worried about revenge attacks in the U.S. for the failure to recognize the Armenian Genocide (so its ok to piss off a million Armenian Americans to protect several thousand Turkish J-ews by choosing to be on the wrong side of history and distorting the truth - how are Turkish J-ews responsible if the U.S. recognizes the Armenian Genocide - American J-ewish leaders like Mr. Foxman are absurd);
and,
3. are Turkish j-ews complicit in the genocide of Armenians such that these American J-ewish advocacy organizations are afraid of the impact of their pro-Israel, pro-Holocaust recognition, pro Anti-semitism extrication platform if the genocide is recognized and the truth of J-ewish complicity in this tragedy is revealed publicly?
