Armenian genocide aknowledgement

hey everyone,

I know the we've already done the topic of genocide but I heard an interesting report on the news las night I thought was worth bringing up. Basically it was about the U.S officially aknowledging that the killings of hundreds of thousands of Armenians by the turks between 1915 - 1917 was genocide. The Bush administration was opposed as it would harm their relationship with Turkey and thus their interests in the middle east by cutting off Turkish supply lines to Iraq.

Here is an interesting related article on the topic.

Any opinions welcome!
