"Congress Iffy on Genocide Vote
Just two weeks ago, the U.S. House Foreign Affairs Committee voted out a resolution declaring the massacre of 1.5 million Armenians from 1915-1917 in the Turkish Ottoman Empire to be a 'genocide.' The resolution has been long sought by the Armenian-American community to officially express horror at one of the early 20th century's most notorious examples of the mass murder of an entire population. The Armenian massacre, which has been fully and amply documented, provided a horrific precedent for later humanitarian calamities, including the Holocuast and the infamous 'ethnic cleansing' in the former Yugoslavia, Bosnia and Kosovo, among others."
