Tells Of Suffering Among Armenians

“Sister Nations”: Israel Zangwill speaks of the centuries of suffering of the Armenians and Jews in this 3/4/1917 article in The Morning New Bernian (NC).  “Sister nations I have been accustomed to think the Armenians and the Jews.  Both hail from sister lands of the cradle of civilization.  Both come trailing couds of glory from the purple days of Persia and Babylon.  Both have borne the shock of the ancient and medieval empires and of the militant migrations of thei races, and both hold their original faith – for if one was the first preacher of Jehovah, the other was the first nation to profess Jesus.  And sisters, too, in sorrow, although exiled scattered, persecuted and massacred.” #ArmenianGenocide #GenocideDiary
