Well so many Armenians are talking about the 1915 Genocide and how The US wont accept the fact that there was one. Just wondering

I don't have to *accept* anything. I looked at the facts, saw what the experts had to say about it, and concluded long ago that this was a clear case of genocide. As Niall Ferguson said in his work "The War of the World: Twentieth-Century Conflict and the Descent of the West" : "now widely acknowledged to have been the first true genocide"
.

Armenian Genocide IS a Fact!!!
US won't accept it because they have interest in Turkey which doesn't recognise the genocide.It's Armenian Holocaust! And today it's the Remembrance day!
(look at my earlier question)

You are naughty... Bring your gramophone to me, i can adjust it without any charge... You should pay if you want to take over Turkiye... We already paid for her with our bloods, are you ready ? If ready try it... We are Turks, Turks never applied genocide not only in 1900 but also during whole history.. But Armenians did, in 1990s in Azarbaijani... Whole world knows it... Terror and genocide is peculiar to Armenian...

Yes, I do accept it. I just recently read a book about it and it was one of the most horrific examples of ethnic cleansing this century and if the US government accepts the fact it was done or not is of no consequence to me, I know what history says and what the truth is. This genocide was the standard the Germans used to set up the death camps in World War II as Germany was an ally of Turkey in the First World War and had military advisors stationed there.

I AM ARMENIAN, AND OFCOURSE I BELIEVE THAT THERE WAS A GENOCIDE. TURKEY DOESNT ACCEPT ITS GUILT, THEY JUST DENY IT AND ITS NOT WHAT WE WANT!!! WE WANT JUSTICE!!!!!!! THE WHOLE WORLD WANTS JUSTICE!!!!!!!!!!
ALL THE AMERICANS REMEMBER AND RESPECT THE JEWISH GENOCIDE, BUT ONLY THE 5% KNOWS ABOUT THE ARMENIAN GENOCIDE.
1915 NEVER AGAIN TURKS!!!!

It certainly happened. But until you control Hollywood, forget about anybody knowing of it. There's only room for ONE genocide in the world's publicity machines.

Turkey did not comit genocide.period. genocide = elimination of a race based on different factors. armenians attacked turkey first. furthermore, my great uncle had his head chopped off by an armenian, many turks died. turkey has opened all of its historical books for world analysis armenian hasnt. sorry we will never accept genocide. they should give it up cause they are just blowing an empty flute
ps many armenians in turkey will tell you it was not genocide.

I do and I'm an American. Times were different The USA was isolistic then.
Only after the experience of WW2 has America realized that the whole world matters.

I do.
I know a lot of people haven't even heard of it, though. And I don't just mean Americans, I'm not from there.
