It appears that in 2015 the Dutch Parliament passed a binding resolution recognizing the genocide.

But, yesterday they passed a motion presented by the Christian Union recognizing the genocide of as many as 1.5 million Armenians in 1915. And announced a delegation to attend a ceremony on 24 April 2019 in Yerevan, Armenia.

We should follow. What have the Turks done for us lately? The truth shall set you free.

A faltering nation, but give them credit for doing the right thing here.

The world should follow their example.

I watched a film months ago that told of the cables sent by U.S. journalist — the reporting helped to bring international attention to the crimes. The film indicted the Germans as being complicit. A great film that portrayed family, love, and the horrifying account of the genocide.

BTW, TF, is there any historical relevance to the Dutch Parliament’s recognition? Or is this a #MeToo situation?

Who, after all, speaks today of the annihilation of the Armenians? Adolf Hitler, August 22, 1939

Hitler noticed the world ignoring the Armenian genocide and figured he could do something similar.
