Israel's Denial of the Armenian Genocide
[edit]Israel officially denied the occurrence of the Armenian Genocide in 1982. Many of Israel's residents fled Europe after the Holocaust. Turkey has always denied the occurrence of the Armenian Genocide, but the United Nations has acknowledged it. Turkey said that they had no intention of exterminating the Armenian people; They were trying to deport them. The Young Turks were concerned about nationalist movements among the non-Muslim populations carried out mass killings of the Christian populations within the empire during World War I.[1] Israel denied the occurrence of the Armenian Genocide in order to protect foreign policy relations between themselves and Turkey. In 1980, Israel cancelled a Holocaust conference at the request of the Turkish government in order to safeguard Jews in the Diaspora migrating to Israel through the Turkish border. The goal of Israel's Ministry of Foreign Affairs is to protect Jews outside of Israel. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs decision on this issue made some Israeli's believe cancelling the Holocaust conference would endanger Jewish lives. Daphna Sharfman, a prominent Israeli human rights activist, argues that former Israel Defense Forces officers significantly influence the Knesset's Security and Foreign Policy committee, thus prioritizing Israel's security interests over diplomacy and moral obligations.[2] Turkey's location is important for Israel's national security because is it the only democratic Muslim country in the Middle East. Turkey was also the first Muslim country to acknowledge the legitimacy of Israel as a state in 1950, two years after Israel was established in 1948. Turkey also borders Iraq, Iran, and Syria, which is a motivation for Israel to form an alliance with Turkey. The Turkish military and the Israel Defense Forces train together. Turkey's National Intelligence Agency and Israel's Mossad share intelligence information. The top-secret bond Israel and Turkey (and Iran, but to a lesser degree) created is known as the "Phantom Pact"[2].
