Newsom’s Billionaire Tax, Iran War Escalates & Israel Acknowledges Genocide | PBD Podcast #825
"Recognizing the genocide perpetrated against the Armenian people in the final years of the Ottoman Empire is both a moral and historical duty. We must also firmly condemn any denial, minimization, or distortion of the historical truth."
Israel's government unanimously voted to recognize the Armenian, Assyrian, and Greek genocides committed by the Ottoman Empire during World War I, following Prime Minister Netanyahu's on-air acknowledgment during a 2025 PBD Podcast interview. Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar called it 'a moral and historical duty.' The move strains relations with Turkey, whose president Erdoğan has accused Israel of genocide in Gaza.
