Forgetting such atrocities encourages history to repeat itself. We who are concerned about human rights owe it to our Armenian friends to remember and to prevent further such events. There are those who maintain that the Armenian genocide never occurred. even though this destruction is well documented in the archives of many nations. including the United States. A million and a half Armenians were exterminated. an additional 500.000 were deported. and their 3.000year presence was eliminated from their historic homeland. The U.S. Holocaust Memorial Council has affirmed our countrys recognition of these historic facts by including the Armenian genocide in its museum and educational programs.
