Jewish
Scholars Affirm Armenian Genocide
August, 2001
In August 2001, a group of highly
distinguished Jewish scholars, both American
Jews and Israelis, released a statement
affirming the Armenian Genocide and
demonstrating their friendship with the
Armenian people. "We, the undersigned, are
scholars, rabbis, teachers, community
leaders, and students of Jewish heritage. As
Jews, we share many similarities with the
Armenian people.
We were both victims of genocide during the
twentieth-century and have survived despite
those who would deny us our right to exist.
On this year, 2001, which marks the 1700th
anniversary of Armenia's adoption of
Christianity, we as Jews salute our Armenian
friends and their contributions to Western
society and culture."
