		Although the main victims of this genocide were Armenian Christians, the approximately five million Greek Christians living in Turkey at the start of World War I were also targeted for programs of deportation, forced marches leading to extermination, and ethnic cleansing.

	(GENOCIDES) Tall Armenian Tale: The Other Side of the Falsified Genocide (Site not responding. Last check: )
		One strategy for discouraging such gratuitous insults to history and justice is to demonstrate that Turkey's accusers have been guilty of the same misconduct but have staunchly resisted self-condemnations as perpetrators of genocide, in other words, they are applying a double and hypocritical legal standard for the crime of genocide.
		Greece is guilty of genocide of Ottoman Muslims in Crete and of Turkish Cypriots in Cyprus twice, 1963-64 and 1974.
		Italy is guilty of genocide in Ethiopia and Somalia during its colonization and war aggressions, and a co-inspirator in the Jewish Holocaust as an ally of Hitler's Third Reich.

	Genocide and Human Rights University Program by the Zoryan Institute
		As incidents of genocide occur with alarming frequency, it is essential that we understand what constitutes genocide, what are its indicators, the relation of genocide to human rights, and how we can prevent future occurrences of genocide.
		As Israel Charny, a noted specialist in the psychology of genocide denial has said, “Denial is an attack on the collective identity and the national cultural continuity of the victim people.” This has devastating effects on both the survivors of genocide and their offspring.
		The instructors will analyze genocide from the perspective of a variety of disciplines; explore the universality of the issues related to genocide, the continuing effects of genocide and its denial, and how genocide can be prevented.

		Genocide is the intentional attempt to destroy an ethnic community, or by extension any community constituted by bonds of kinship, of common religion or ideology, of common socio-economic position or of common race.
		History doesn't record such events, and they certainly could not have been on the scale of the modern events, for there simply were not that many people in the world in prehistory.
		The Jews concluded their genocide was a result of weakness, and since World War II have sought to create a strong nation-state out of a fragmented and stateless community.

	HOW WE CAN PREVENT GENOCIDE
		But the history of the twentieth century instead proved that “never again” became “again and again.” The promise the United Nations made was broken, as again and again, genocides and other forms of mass murder killed 170 million people, more than all the international wars of the twentieth century combined.
		During the Armenian genocide and the Holocaust, the world’s response was denial.
		The International Campaign to End Genocide covers genocide as it is defined in the Genocide Convention: “the intentional destruction, in whole or in part, of a national, ethnical, racial or religious group, as such.” It also covers political mass murder, ethnic cleansing, and other genocide-like crimes against humanity.

	Genocide's New Definition: Deliberate Negligence \| Progressive U (Site not responding. Last check: )
		I read about genocides in a history class, and I wondered how many times they had occurred through out history-all ‘possible’ genocides that have occurred during history.
		The definition of genocide is stated as the “intent to destroy, in whole of part, a national, ethnic, racial or religious group by killing, condition/acts to cause death, physical harm, preventative birth and the transferring of children”.
		The issue in the Great Leap Forward was that Mao (Tse-Tung is his given name, Mao is his surname) didn't know what to expect for revenue, and since he was the dictator, and what he said had to be true, the people had to 'produce' the numbers that he mandated.

	Humam Rights in Bangladesh
		Over three decades past the genocide and the independence but there has been no accountability of the war crimes and any possible emotional healing and integration of the nation continues to elude us.
		One of the reasons genocides have occurred in distant and not-so-distant history is because human beings have often lost their own humanity and their faith in humanity; consequently, treating other fellow human beings, Muslims or non-Muslims, communists or non-communists, Jews or non-Jews, Armenians or non-Armenians, in inhumane manner seemed acceptable.
		At the institutional level, Bangladesh and Bangladeshis should work toward establishing genocide studies programs, with special focus on 1971, and also be connected with all those around the world who are working on the noble goal to prevent future genocides.

	History of the Balkan Ethnic Conflict :: Ethnicity
		Thomas Mockaitis, a history professor at DePaul University and expert on ethnic relations in Bosnia, said that people like Milosevic were very powerful during the region's most distressful time after the SFRY split up in 1991 and 1992.

	ZNet Commentary
		When Jews turn inward to concentrate on their own history, and look away from the ordeal of others, they are, with terrible irony, doing exactly what the rest of the world did in allowing the genocide to happen.
		To build a wall around the uniqueness of the Jewish Holocaust is to abandon the idea that humankind is all one, that we are all, of whatever color, nationality, religion, deserving of equal rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
		What happened to the Jews under Hitler is unique in its details but it shares universal characteristics with many other events in human history: the Atlantic slave trade, the genocide against native Americans, the injuries and deaths to millions of working people, victims of the capitalist ethos that put profit before human life.

	The Ultimate The Holocaust - American History Information Guide and Reference
		This can be viewed as a political question, with non-Jewish groups that were victims of genocide attempting to ride the success of Jews in popularizing knowledge of the Holocaust as a Jewish event, and Jewish groups conversely attempting to preserve a version of history that views the Holocaust as a uniquely Jewish event.
		Hitler's campaign of genocide against the Rroma people of Europe was seen by many as a particularly bizarre application of Nazi "racial hygiene".
		Historical revisionism is a well-accepted and mainstream part of the study of history; it is the reexamination of accepted history, with an eye towards updating it with newly discovered, more accurate, and/or less biased information, or viewing known information from a new perspective.

		Raymond "Koodie" Jeff, Santa Rosa Rancheria Tribal Historian, recognized that our children are aware of other racial genocides and that our state education system exposes our children to such as the historical genocide of the Jewish race, yet limits our children's exposure to our own history.
		In 1852 when our 18 treaties were not ratified the U.S. turned its head the other way, and let the State of California handle the Indian population.
