DON’T FORGET ARMENIAN GENOCIDE DUE TO POLITICS
Arutz Sheva, Israel
April 23 2013
The Knesset will mark, Tuesday, the 98th anniversary of the killing
and deportation of up to 1.8 million Armenians by the Ottoman Empire.
Against the backdrop of negotiations between Israel and Turkey
to restore relations, former Knesset speaker Reuven Rivlin said,
ahead of the observance, “As human beings and as Jews, we must not
ignore the disaster of another people, and not because of diplomatic
considerations, important as they are. We will continue to mark the
anniversary of the massacre of the Armenian people, regardless of
relations with today’s Turkey as an ally.”
