The Genocide of the Innocent Native Americans... The Genocide of Innocent Armenians... both prime examples of how the U.S. has been complete jackasses about their foreign policy: looking at economic ties more than the feelings of great groups of people.

every single person in the world who teases armenians n think that genocide is "non" true is just thew most cruel one cuz if u know how turkish behaved with armenian men children women with a lot of huge people of that time i guess u'll never say a single word against armenians. N YES THERE WAS A GENOCIDE N YES EVERY HUMANIST IN THE WORLD SHOULD SAY IT LOUD AS EVEN HITLER SAID ABOUT IT EVENTHOUGH HE WAS RATHER CRUEL N BAD MAN

armenians are the far most racist nation than any other.they are always proud of being the best race in the world (for some unknown reasons) they think they are superior to anyone and also they are the only pure race atm.also they talks about they are the 1st christians nation to get symphaty through christendom.

i was dieing of laughter when he say ''turkey spends millions of dollars on lobbying...'' i think that serj tankian is living in mars or he is blinded by propagand.

armenians are the one who spend millions of dollars for lobbying and propagand.they are the new ''jews''.they started to control banks,parliaments with lobbying etc.they spend millions of dollars for that and btw people in armenia are poor.if they really lvoed armenia they would invest those money to their own country.

@al3ccc OK, I see what you mean... The Armenians have been trying to get the world to recognize the genocide of the Armenians. In 1915-1916... the Ottoman Empire did not trust the Armenians because the Russian Army had Armenians in there ranks! Turkey should recognize the genocide... But i have had many people blame the genocide on Americans because we chose not to intervene and that if we did the holocaust wouldn't have happened...

I'm not saying that the acceptance of the Armenian Genocide should or will involve any bloodshed whatsoever, but would just be more of a respect thing to Armenians. At this point, the U.S. government is slapping an entire group of people in the face, basically saying that 600,000 to 1.5 million people just disappeared into thin air. We are nationally not accepting what truly happened in history. If accepted, our influence will definitely change other nations' perspective on the genocide as well.
