Mr Robison is in error.
If these numbers prove accurate, they represent a crime against humanity surpassed only by the Rwandan genocide of 1994, Pol Pot's Cambodian killing fields in the 1970s, and the Nazi Holocaust of World War II.
Surpassed only by Rwanda, Pol Pot and Nazi holocaust, is that close enough for you Joe?
He has left out the Genocide of the Armenians, carried out by Muslim Turks.
en.wikipedia.org
The Armenian Genocide (Armenian: ????? ??????????????, Turkish: Ermeni Soykirimi) — also known as the Armenian Holocaust, Great Calamity (??? ?????) or the Armenian Massacre — refers to the forced mass evacuation and related deaths of hundreds of thousands to over a million Armenians, during the government of the Young Turks from 1915 to 1917 in the Ottoman Empire.
Today, the Republic of Turkey rejects the notion that the event constituted a genocide and instead claims that the deaths among the Armenians were a result of inter-ethnic strife, disease and famine during the turmoil of World War I. However, most Armenian, Russian, Western, and an increasing number of Turkish scholars believe that it was indeed a genocide, or campaign of state-sponsored ethnic cleansing and mass extermination |
