No, this only proves that there is a freedom of speach and everyone can say whatever he wants ( this system is used for a long time now in the US and is known as the best system till now )

If you do not want to hear the people's voice, please move to China or North-Korea

If you know a better system, please don't hesitate and share it with us

This proves once again that Turks are barbaric and willl stay barbaric and never ready to enter civilized society..One cannot celebrate on someone else's tragedy...How immature!

Thank you Obama for giving these mindless and ethically challenged group your support. You just lost another supporter for your reelection. Democracy at its best!!!

"Expect suffering as an inevitable part of life and when it comes, hold your head high, look it squarely in eye and say, 'I will be bigger than you. You cannot defeat me." You CAN NOT defeat us, Turkey! You have tried, and you have failed...Armenians are still here. We are still united. We are still fighting. We will never give up. Your country has the blood of 1.5 million innocent lives on it's hands..but through our Lord, Jesus Christ, justice will be served.

Genocide denial is wrong and immoral, but to actually celebrate it is just plain disgusting!

@vademooo1 Really is that why there is video of Obama saying a genocide did happen. Quit being brainwashed; look at the facts.

Can anyone understand what these animals are chanting?

Billions of people, and most civilized nations on Earth have recognized

what the Turks perpetrated against the Armenians as genocide.

Generations over nearly a century clearly understand the overwhelming evidence.

Do the Turks not realize that denial makes them look like cowards to literally every onlooker?

It is stunning to me that any people, even Turks, don't see how the rest of the world sees them. They are spineless.

THIS MESSAGE IS FOR ALL THE TURKISH PEOPLE WHO ARE WATCHING THIS VIDEO AND READING THIS MESSAGE:

THE ONLY REASON UNITES STATES REJECTS ARMENIAN CLAIMS IS BECAUSE THE UNITED STATES HAS A GOOD BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP WITH TURKEY.

IF THE UNITES STATES AGREES, TURKEY WILL NO LONGER DO BUSINESS WITH THE UNITES STATES.,, THIS MEANS, UNITES STATES WILL LOOSE MILLIONS OF DOLLARS..

ALL IN ALL, UNITES STATES IS USING YOU ( TURKEY AND TURKISH PEOPLE) FOR MONEYYYYYY MONEYYY MONEYYYYY

@tolgaGCNS That part of the country was already established as Armenian before Turkey came in and took the lands away from Armenians. No amount of torture or killing can justify a mass slaughter of 1.5 million PEOPLE. Humans, your kind, regardless of color, race, ethnicity, or beliefs. Turkey murdered 1.5 million Armenians and there is no denying the facts. Take a few minutes and look at Armenians lands through the ages and then talk.
