A well written concise article, and an excellent book for all of us to champion. The only thing lacking in the the journalistic coverage is the mention of victim 1,500,001, writer Hrant Dink, gunned down in broad daylight for being a contemporary Armenian (and citizen of Turkey) who was willing to talk openly about and write about the genocide in order to build a bridge and force his current community to face its history. His death and millions of others must not be in vain and Turkey will never enter the EU until it changes, and while its history of brutality and denial are still Current Events. Period.
