The Armenians called, they are asking how the Assyrians and the Pontic Greeks are doing.
Well who better to say than the experts? Turkey got so good at genocide, they definitively know one when they see it.
Apparently some historians got so tired of keeping track of all the individual Ottoman genocides, massacres and pogroms that they’ve lumped them all together into the Late Ottoman genocides. To be fair though, that umbrella also includes plenty of Muslim populations getting much the same treatment in the Christian countries created as the Ottoman Empire contracted.
Germany begs to differ.
What’s that pejorative slang Israelis call holocaust survivors? Soap.
That’s the thing, exceptions piss off everyone.
The countries who would never do something like this, and the ones who do this stuff but then get consequences.

Turkiye used to be pretty friendly towards Israel, but Israel, in an increasingly bizarre and arrogant show of foreign policy, has managed to alienate Turkiye almost completely from their previous relations.
I guess they would know about genocide at least…
