ISRAELI SCIENTIST TO GIVE LECTURES IN NORTH AMERICA ON ARMENIAN GENOCIDE ISSUE

Israeli scientist Yair Auron is to give a series of lectures in the North American cities devoted to the problem of the Armenian Genocide. During the lectures the scientist will present his new book titled “Triviality of Denying: Israel and the Armenian Genocide”, in which the analysis of the today’s treatment of the fact by the Israeli government and the leading institutions of the country is given. In the course of the lectures he will also touch upon Israel’s comments on the analogous violations of human rights in Tibet, former Yugoslavia and Rwanda. While crimes of such character are being committed, the attitude of the Israeli people, who survived the Holocaust, is obtaining a new meaning.
