Let's look at some people who DENIED the #ArmenianGenocide.

1. Barack Obama himself was an Armenian Genocide denier, breaking a campaign promise to recognize it. https://www.latimes.com/nation/la-na-obama-armenian-genocide-20150421-story.html

2. Until 2016 (not a typo), the ADL denied the #ArmenianGenocide. https://www.bostonglobe.com/metro/2016/05/13/adl-leader-says-massacre-armenians-was-unequivocally-genocide/7lqWr0vsWyPvvw9sZpRvEI/story.html

It marked the strongest affirmation yet from the leading civil rights group in support of Armenian advocates.

4. For almost a decade, Cernovich has demanded that the Armenian Genocide be recognized.

Unlike others like Barack Obama, George W. Bush, and the ADL - which denied the #ArmenianGenocide (the ADL recanted in 2016). https://www.crimeandfederalism.com/2015/04/barack-obama-is-a-holocaust-denier-part-6.html

Barack Obama is a Holocaust Denier: Part 6

As a candidate for President of the United States, Barack Obama made a promise to the Armenian people. This was not a sort-of-promise. There was no ambiguity. Here is what Candidate Obama promised: I...

5. @YouTube darling, endorsed by @SusanWojcicki, denied the #ArmenianGenocide. He even named his channel after the mass murderer and rapists responsible - The Young Turks. https://armenianweekly.com/2019/06/02/tyt-takes-belated-baby-step/

TYT Takes Belated Baby Step

This is one of those good/bad news situations. The online talk show (formerly a radio program) named “The Young Turks” (henceforth TYT to save ink and pixels) hosted by Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian...

6. During the Armenian Genocide, Turks raped 8 year old girls. Due to the pain, they were unable to keep up during forced marches. Turks then murdered them.

7. Much was made of Nick Fuentes' horrible Holocaust joke.

What Obama did was worse.

Obama broke his promise to recognize the #ArmenianGenocide.

He wasn't some 21 year old kid.

Obama was POTUS was a holocaust denier. https://www.latimes.com/socal/glendale-news-press/tn-gnp-me-editorial-20160423-story.html

Editorial: Obama's silence on Armenian Genocide speaks volumes on geopolitics

8. I have always stood against holocaust (small-h and capital-H) deniers.

For years we fought to have the #ArmenianGenocide recognized.

We must also remember the names of those who denied this holocaust. https://www.change.org/p/president-donald-trump-demand-that-president-trump-recognizes-the-armenian-genocide

9. While @SamanthaJPower had power, she and @brhodes and @BarackObama denied the #ArmenianGenocide.

This is how history must remember them

- As holocaust deniers. https://www.jpost.com/Opinion/Samantha-Powers-breathtaking-hypocrisy-on-the-Armenian-genocide-606856

Samantha Power’s breathtaking hypocrisy on the Armenian genocide

Since Turkey is a NATO ally, fellow members have been especially reluctant to risk angering the Turks.

10. YES, the ADL absolutely denied the #ArmenianGenocide.

You can find articles criticizing the ADL's decision to engage in hate speech. (Holocaust denial is considered hate speech.)

Tablet Magazine, a Jewish publication, called out the ADL for this.

11. The ADL's position denying the #ArmenianGenocide is one people don't bring up.

Fact: It wasn't until 2016 that the ADL stoped denying the holocaust of Armenian Christians. https://www.timesofisrael.com/adl-to-recognize-massacre-of-armenians-as-genocide/
