Holocaust Supremacy Quantified: The Staggering Silence on All the Genocides of Non-Jews

This anthology on the Aghet (Armenian Genocide) has a variety of perspectives, and includes little-known information, including an eye-opening Internet study on the dominance of the Holocaust. I focus mainly on the latter.

THE HOLOCAUST IS MYSTIFIED. SURPRISE: THE ARMENIAN GENOCIDE (AGHET) IS NOT

Author Michael Papazian says it all, “Ninety years after the Armenian Genocide, there has not yet emerged an extensive discussion by philosophers about the significance of this event. This is in stark contrast to the Holocaust, about which there is a very rich and provocative philosophical literature.” (p. 19).

Because of Holocaust supremacy, the Armenian Genocide has gotten little traction beyond the descendants of its victims. Papazian remarks, “The Genocide is becoming, if it is not already, the central event in Armenian history.” (p. 21).

Not surprisingly, challenges to the primacy of the Holocaust have been resisted. Author Nicole E. Vartanian comments, “In the case of the Armenian Genocide, it is no surprise that efforts to legislate teaching have consistently met with counter-pressures.” (p. 230). This consideration can, of course, be extended to other genocides, including the Polokaust.

HOLOCAUST SUPREMACY EXTENDS TO THE INTERNET

Author Hagop Gulludjian performed a fascinating study of the mentions of different genocides on the Internet in 2005. Depending upon the search engine used, Armenian Genocide pulled up 290,000–455,000 records, and the more specific “Armenian Genocide” 84,000–195,000 records. In contrast, the Holocaust was mentioned only 5.7–8.5 MILLION times! (p. 255).

Let us consider simple ratios. For every 100 times that the Armenian Genocide was mentioned, the then-current Rwandan Genocide was mentioned 60-265 times, the Cambodian genocide 8-79 times, the Ukrainian Genocide 3-26 times. The Holocaust was mentioned a mere 2,300–4,100 times. (p. 256).
