The Armenian Genocide happened during WWI. 1.5 million Armenians were killed by the Turks. However Turkey never recognised the genocide. Many European, South American countries have recognised it but US still hasn't.

I doubt it. Most of those in power of the world today would cheer the slaughter of defenseless Christians. A lot of people in the U.S. would too. And since this happened 90 years ago I don't think they would care any more. It is horrible to have to atone for our fathers past.

Unfortunately some people don't even know the difference between a Armenian and an American. And Turkey is far from my home.

Hi,

So-called Armenian Genocide is an absolutely lie.
I will explain, what happened on April, 24 1915.

The Ottoman government, against numerous rebellions that began after 1890 and promptly following Armenian massacres which resulted in the murder of tens of thousands of Turks, contented with informing most important persons of Armenian congregation and Armenian deputies that "Government will take the necessary precautions if Armenians continue to stab in the back and assassinate the Turks". However, it became a necessity to secure behind the borders because the army was in war at various fronts, the events did not stop but increased and assaults towards defenseless Turkish women and children increased.

With this aim, on April 24, 1915 the Armenian Committees were closed and 2345 of their directors were arrested due to the crime of carrying out activities against the government. April 24, which is commemorated annually as the "Anniversary of Armenian Massacre" by the Armenians abroad is this date when the 2345 revolutionary committee members were arrested and it has no relation with deportation.

TURKISH DIPLOMATS KILLED BY THE ARMENIAN TERRORISTS DURING THEIR DUTY

The main targets of Armenian terror organizations, ASALA in particular, were now being chosen from among Turkish diplomats abroad. The first of the series of terrorist attacks was carried out against Mehmet Baydar, the Turkish Consul General in Los Angeles and his Deputy, Bahadir Demir.
The assassinations were perpetrated by an Armenian by the name of Gurgen Yanikan in 1973.

This individual action turned into organized Armenian terror as of 1975 and further escalated as of 1979. 110 acts of terror were carried out by Armenian terrorists in 38 cities of 21 countries. 39 of these were armed attacks, 70 of them bomb attacks and one was an occupation. 42 Turkish diplomats and 4 foreign nationals were assassinated in these attacks, while 15 Turks and 66 foreign nationals were wounded.

Who are we( the US) killing?

Sorry I missed read your question. Armenian vs American.

Prior to WWII, the US held a position of nationalism and isolationism. Very little effort was given to learning of global affairs.

What benefit does recognizing genocide from one hundred years ago bring?

I'm still waiting for the US to recognize the Ukrainian Famine(Holomodor) Where millions of Ukrainian died at an estimate of 33,000 a day, at the height of the famine. Yet I can not tell you how many times I've seen the nonsense about that thing called the "holocaust"
