Even the United States has failed to acknowledge this tragedy. For Armenians themselves, an ancient people who have lived as a Christian minority within the Ottoman and Russian empires for over a thousand years, this struggle for recognition is nothing new. For them, as for the victims of the later Nazi holocaust, there is a necessary link between the memory of these events, the conscience of the world, and the survival of their nation. A Crime of Vengeance is the story of this tragedy as seen through its effect upon the life of a young Armenian named Soghomon Tehlirian. A witness to the massacres, Tehlirian was driven by a passion for revenge to track down and publicly execute the highranking Turkish official who ordered the killings. His victim, Talaat Pasha, was a member of the brutal Young Turk party that had briefly governed Turkey and allied itself with Germany in World War I. The Young Turks espoused a chauvinistic "pan~Turkic" nationalism ~ similar to the racist ideologies of later fascist movements ~ and under cover of war they conducted massive "relocations" in the Armenian province of Anatolia that left few survivors. After the war, the Young Turks fled to exile in Berlin, where the German government granted them unofficial asylum even as a Turkish military tribunal tried the party leaders in absentia and condemned them to death. Alexander follows Tehlirian as he is recruited by a secret organization known as Nemesis, assigned to the assassination of Talaat ~ as other young Armenians were given other targets ~ and directed to Berlin, where after weeks of surveillance and planning he accosted Talaat on a crowded street and shot him in the head. The killing and subsequent trial made international headlines. Yet, despite his clear premeditation and manifest violation of German law, a jury of Berliners found Tehlirian not guilty of murder. The connection between memory and justice is revealed in this story of the first political assassin to be tried and acquitted on grounds of moral justification. Yet even as today's Armenian patriots strive to achieve national liberation after decades of Soviet rule, the historic Armenian struggle for justice continues in the court of world opinion. It is a struggle in which all civilized peoples have a stake. For as Adolf Hitler reassured his generals in 1939, "Who today still speaks of the extermination of the Armenians?".
