  1. ” The Competition of victims”- “This refers to the tendency of some victim groups to want to make their genocide seem more important by denying status of Others.”
    What an appropriate and fitting description of the State of Israel, and Israeli related organizations like the ADL.
    Glad to see a reputable Jewish scholar recognize the Genocide.

  2. I want to know why this man isn’t more famous! He’s the one who came up with this term, and he used what happened to the Ottoman Christians as an example of what the word meant. Shame on historians for not paying closely attention to this!
