ISRAELI PARLIAMENT TO DISCUSS ARMENIAN GENOCIDE IN APRIL

Postby ARMENIAN CYPRIOT » Fri Mar 26, 2010 6:56 pm

Next month the leader of Israeli Meretz faction Haim Oron intends to retable the discussion of Armenian Genocide resolution in the Knesset, IzRus reports.

Since 1990s, the recognition of Armenian Genocide is a matter of heated discussions. According to the source, this year the issue is in focus of state organizations inside and outside Israel more than ever. For a number of reasons, the issue is no more considered in the context of relations between two states or two nations, but obviously gets geopolitical coloration.

Firstly, the process is affected by increasing Israel-Turkey tension. Other regional processes, such as Ankara’s shift in foreign policy line, namely change from close ties with West to convergence with Muslim world, Armenia-Turkey reconciliation, strengthening of Armenian-Iranian strategic partnership, as well as intensification of Azerbaijani-Israeli cooperation play role as well. Washington’s aspiration to resume Israeli-Palestinian talks by all means urged some officials to recall “Armenian factor” in the context of final determination of Jerusalem final status. The point is Armenian Apostolic Church fully or partially controls many Christian sanctuaries in the city (including part of the Church of the Holy Sepulcher). Besides, Armenian block is located in the heart of Old City, thus western actors of “negotiation process” consider that Jerusalem’s future redivision might to some extent depend on stance of Armenians, the source reads.

Turkey really needs to change its view on this ongoing Armenian BS. It is too easily offended by history.
It needs to just start saying "Who gives a shit?"

At a time when Israel is Blockading Gaza, denying basic human needs and shooting stone throwing kids, as well as wanting to push ahead and steal more land, its a bit of the pot calling the kettle black isnt it ?
Or simply Diversion tactics........

Israel is looking for a way to spite Erdogan and the Turkish public for calling them out during the Brutal invasion of Gaza and its public sympathy towards the Palestinians.

The only bs that I am aware of is the way Cypriots allowed there selves to be played by the brits during the 50's which caused this mess. I cant wait until there is a settlement so that they can throw the lot of you carpetbaggers off the island. :lol: :lol:
