Israel: A Founding Father, Inspired by Armenian History, Dies
A fouding father of Israel died yesterday, and his close friend told Haaretz that the “commander of exodus” was inspired by Armenian resistance during the Genocide.
In the words of Haaretz:
The man who commanded the clandestine operations that brought in four ships carrying some 24,000 illegal immigrants between 1945 and 1948, Yossi Harel, died yesterday in Tel Aviv at the age of 90.
The writer Yoram Kaniuk, a friend of Harel, told Haaretz that when the ships he commanded sailed past the coast of Turkey, Harel would think of the Armenian village in Franz Werfel’s novel “40 Days of Musa Dagh,” which described the Armenian genocide. “He loved the Armenian people and felt close to them,” Kaniuk said, adding that he wanted to mention Harel’s sensitivity to the Armenians as a sign of the great humanitarianism and compassion that were central to his Harel’s character.

I dont think Israel will recognize the acclaimed Genocide ever!
Turkey has great relationships with Israel. Water only runs from Turkey to Israel ignoring the rest of the reagon. Turks saved all of the Shephardic Jews from Spanish inquisition in 14 th cc. That is why Most of Shephardic jews in the world are Turkish background. Mossad helps Turkey to catch the PKK terrorist leader Ocalan. Turkey hides all jews from Hitler in the 2 nd world war. Mothers of Some kings of the Ottoman Empire were jewish heritage. Turkey and Israel has a strong millitary agreement signed back in 1998. They train eachother and use each others air space. Jews are still in biggest power in Turkey.
And plus , since when a war is called a genocide?
You guys need to sit down on the table with Turks about that even USA said it is not our problem anymore.
Genocide is one side killing the other with no deffense. Barnes and Nobles has many books talking about numbers from 500.000. to 700.000. Ottomans were killed by Armenians at the time of the war.
Dont expect mercy from other nations with your manipulation.
Go and face with the Turkish Archives which is opened last year waiting for you to face with it -for their causilties !
You are alone on this one. Rest of the world had stopped the recognition ! The ones who accepted it were bribed cause only people would accept such a lie in return of donations!
Bye byeeeeeeeee 🙂
