U.S. Armenia Genocide Vote

http://www.haaretz.com/hasen/spages/1154423.html

The article begins : "Jewish lobbyists contrived a U.S. congressional vote that labeled the World War One-era massacre of Armenians by Turkish forces as genocide, a London-based Arabic-language newspaper claimed on Saturday"


and ends with: "Turkey, a Muslim secular democracy that plays a vital role for U.S. interests from Iraq to Iran and in Afghanistan and the Middle East, accepts that many Armenians were killed by Ottoman forces but denies that up to 1.5 million died and that it amounted to genocide - a term employed by many Western historians and some foreign parliaments. 

Turkey regards such accusations as an affront to its national honor. "

This struck me as worth noting.
