When will America accept the Armenian Genocide?

Answer 1

The Armenian Genocide Happened!
The only reason Congress passed a resolution, at this time, is to piss off the Turks. This will give the Turks the push to invade Iraq to go after the Kurds. It will also cause the Turks to shut off their assistance in the Iraq war creating havoc in our supply line to the troops. Both of these effects will put the US troops in danger. Congress will happily throw the troops under the train if it helps make Bush look bad.
They would never have made this resolution but for serving this purpose.
There are opportunities today to intervene and prevent genocide ...but Congress will do nothing...except pass a resolution declaring a Sudanese genocide 100 years from now.
...and they'll never acknowlege Saddam's genocide of the Kurds.

**** yes gmfod (below) the movement started decades ago and was never an important issue until it served an ulterior motive.

Answer 2

Once people are educated enough to realize that the Armenian Genocide, is probably one of the largest contributing factors of the events that followed a few decades later, known as the Jewish Holocaust.
Hitler Spoke about it often, and probably felt that if no one cared about a few million Armenians, they wouldn't care about a few million Jews.

Funny how silly people claim democrats did this only to irritate the Turks, when the movement to have it recognized started long before Bush was even in office, and 22 countries already have made resolution condemning the act.
It only makes sense when our president is claiming to be spreading democracy and freedom to uphold human rights, for our own government to condemn all acts of genocide as well. Well unless we want to show the world, we really have no credibility, and are nothing but a bunch of hypocrites.

Answer 3

First of all, There was not a Country called Turkey at that time. It was an ottoman empire which was last 700 years. Many people lived under the empire within good conditions. They were happy. When war began Armenians take a part with Russian and be their spies in Turkey. They were against to Turks and killed many Turks too.I think Russia promised them their own land after the war therefore they did it to Turks. And Turks first started to fight with their enemies inside in their country. Turks accept people killed in both part. Turks were also killed too. It was a war and Turks killed their "inside" enemies first rather than other countries in the war. It was a war and it is what it spouse to be.






Would you fight against the other enemies when you have some in your country? Of course not. it is like "cleaning your door first". Many people killed and killed. But it was not all Armenians. It was their mistake when being against to country where they have lived. They are treacherous people. They made a big mistake and not accepting results? What would you do to your treacherous enemies? Would you help them after the war to deliver them somewhere else to live? Ottomans lost the war and they had their problems to solve rather that helping Armenians to leave the country in safe condition. Many historians says there were diseases and that’s why many people in both sides died after the war.








There were also other political movements against the Ottoman Empire. I feel sorry for both people but it was A WAR not a normal day. I dont understand how people call it genocide. it was WAR where someone won and someone lost. Turks give their web links Armenian give theirs. Do you think they are impartial websites. We should listen the historian people. The net has all kind of information and you can believe anything you read but there is only one true. Turks are not stupid to accept something that their grandfathers didn’t do. As many people say The Armenians have Russia to stand behind them and Turkish people have us (United States). for now. It is bigger than you think when you search Russia and US history .It is not only Armenia or Turkey. Russia used Armenians against to Ottomans and now uses Armenians against to US? Dont be stupid, This Armenians played o big role on decadence of Ottoman Empire. Be aware people!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 6

That happened in World War ONE! If in fact it did occur. Why bring it up now? I'll tell you why, to support Al Qaeda.
The Democrats have been doing everything they could to support Al Qaeda, this is one of their more imaginitive ploys.
You must be a really low down dirty scum bag to be a Democrat.
