    TURK ANALYST CONDEMNS OSKANIAN OF INSULTING JEWS FROM THE UN PODIUM

    2 Feb 05

    Armenian foreign affairs minister Vartan Oskanian's speech at the
    Special Session of General Assembly of the UN dedicated to the 60th
    anniversary of Auschwitz death camp liberation caught the attention of
    Hatem Jabbarl from Caucasian Department of Eurasian Military Research
    Institute. In an article of January 28 of Haberanaliz newspaper
    Jabbarl draws readers' attention to Vartan Oskanian's readiness "to
    join other survivors on behalf of the people and government of
    Armenia" and to "Jews and Armenians are linked forever by Hitler"
    statement and says that the General Assembly's Special Session played
    more into Armenians hands than into Jews as the Holocaust is
    recognized worldwide while the "so-called genocide" is only
    recognized, Jabbarl thinks, by states that are unwilling to see Turkey
    developed due to their past enmity.

    Jabbarl considered Oskanian's speech an opportune occasion to
    influence the international community from such an authoritative
    podium as UN's and expressed an opinion that the Armenian foreign
    minister "insulted the memory of Holocaust, the Jewish people as well
    as the participants of the Special Session by offering his
    condolences".

    Jabbarl explained Oskanian's "insult" by anti-Semitism rampant in
    Armenia. Writing that anti-Semitism has grown into a state policy in
    our country, he merely points out to Roman Yepiskoposyan's "The
    National Systems" book and chairman of Armenian Aryan Union Armen
    Avetisian's statements that "the Yezids and Jews should be put out of
    Armenia" as well as to the head of Armenia's Jewish community,
    Rima Varzhapetian, as she feverously seeks signs of anti-Semitism.

    This means that the Turkish analyst is more concerned with creating an
    illusion of anti-Semitism than with the real state of things.

    But what really lies behind Jabbarl's words is the concern that the
    condolences of the Armenian minister to the Jewish nation create
    grounds for friendship which will supposedly bind Turkey's hands as it
    is striving to remove the US Congress resolutions on Armenian Genocide
    by means of Jews institutions. In other words, the reason Hatem
    Jabbarl on "finding" anti-Semitism in Armenia raised it to the rank of
    state policy is that he wanted to oppose anti-Semitism to Armenian
    foreign minister's speech, rather annoying for Turkey.
