Support Wanes in House for Genocide Vote
Worried about antagonizing Turkish leaders, House members from both parties have begun to withdraw their support from a resolution backed by the Democratic leadership that would condemn as genocide the mass killings of Armenians nearly a century ago...


Funny, how interest turns the tide. So what tools were used to make the pro-resolution guys change their mind? Any guess is very welcome.


“We simply cannot allow the grievances of the past, as real as they may be, to in any way derail our efforts to prevent further atrocities for future history books,”

Wow, so well said! I love diplomatic language. Sounds like the Reconciliation here in SA. Only that the institution dealing with it is called The Truth And Reconciliation Commission (TLC).

By the way, were the things which the Anglos did to the Boers a genocide or not?
