Book Review | Ataturk in the Nazi Imagination
Early in his career, Nazi leader Adolf Hitler took inspiration from Benito Mussolini, his senior colleague in fascism; this fact is widely known.

This article is interesting but not a new or astonishing revelation in that we all know when Hitler started the Jewish Holocaust he said, “who remembers the Armenian Genocide.”
In fact, the NILI group, an underground group of Zionists living in Israel during WW One were very concerned about the Armenian genocide. Sarah Aaronsohn, a member of the group, saw what was happening to the Armenians as she traveled by train from Constantinople to Zikhron Ya`aqov on the coast of Israel in 1915. NILI gathered information about the genocide and Turkish military moves and transfered it to the British, to a small British ship that anchored off the coast. This concern with the Armenian genocide and a post-war Armenian state led Aaron Aaronsohn, Sarah’s brother, to urge Armenian officials at the Versailles conference to push for more independence.
