Raphael Lemkin

From Metapedia

Raphael Lemkin was a Polish-Jew lawyer who coined the word "Genocide". During the 30's Lemkin worked as a lawyer in Warsaw, until the Second World War broke out. In 1939 he joined the Polish Home Guard and after being injured during the Polish Invasion he fled to Sweden then to the United States. His post war career saw him serving as an advisor to the Supreme Court and to the Nuremberg Trial counsel Robert H. Jackson. After this he held lectures at Yale University.

Unlike the current Zionists, who deny the persuasion of the Armenians during World War I, he called the Armenian Genocide the first "Genocide" of the twentieth century.[1]

Lemkin died in New York City of a heart attack in 1959. 7 people attended his funeral.
