It wasn't kept a secret by the Hutus, the weapon of choice was a machete, not a gun, and nobody stepped in to help.

Did other genocides occur later in history after holocaust?

Yes. Pol Pot's Massacres in Cambodia, the Conflict in Darfur, the Rwandan Genocide, and many others occurred after the Holocaust ended in 1945. However, the Armenian Genocide and several other genocides occurred before the Holocaust.


Who recognizes the Armenian genocide?

Turkey applies a lot of pressure to all of its allies to ignore the Armenian, Pontic Greek, and Assyrian genocides. Considering that Israel cannot afford to really lose Turkey as a regional ally, this is the motive for non-recognition. However, there have been a number of debates in the Knesset concerning recognizing the Armenian genocide as the Turkish-Israeli relationship becomes increasingly weaker. Additionally, most Israeli academics are not even conflicted on the question of the genocides; they argue quite strongly that it did happen, like the majority of academics worldwide. Only 30 or so countries recognize the Armenian genocide, not even the United States federal government, and almost none recognize the other two. It is very unfortunate, in my view, since whether a tragedy is a genocide should not be a political decision, but should be clear from the historical facts. Unfortunately, the government of Turkey has made the recognition of the genocide a political issue.


How many genocides since World War 2?

Since World War II, there have been several recognized genocides, including the Holocaust, the Cambodian Genocide (1975-1979), the Rwandan Genocide (1994), and the Bosnian Genocide (1992-1995). Other instances, such as the Armenian Genocide and the Darfur Genocide, have also been noted. Estimates suggest that there have been over a dozen significant cases of genocide since 1945, each with varying degrees of recognition and international response. The exact number can be difficult to quantify due to differing definitions and classifications of genocide.

Unique thing about the Armenian genocide is?

It was the first genocide of the 20th century, and what the Turks did served as an example to many other criminals. To encourage his accomplices, Hitler once said "after all, who still remembers the Armenian genocide?".


Does Turkey admit to the Armenian genocide?

No. Turkey has passed legislation banning any open discussion of the Armenian Genocide (part of Article 301) and uses its important diplomatic and economic position to prevent other countries from recognizing the Armenian Genocide. This has resulted in many Turkish diplomatic problems, like EU entry, which is conditioned on Turkey's acceptance of the Armenian Genocide. Failure to recognize the genocide has made it difficult to establish diplomatic relations between Turkey and the modern Republic of Armenia.Please see Editorial: Turkey Must Recognize the Armenian Genocide from 2004 to read more.
