Recognize Armenian Genocide of 1915 committed by nazi ally Turkey

Created by J.A. on December 24, 2012

The Armenian Genocide, the first genocide of the 20th Century, occurred when two million Armenians living in Turkey were eliminated from their historic homeland through forced deportations and massacres between 1915-1918.
The total number of people killed as a result has been estimated at between 1 and 1.5 million.
Even nowadays extremist government of Turkey continues denial of such horrific act! In 2006, the well-known Armenian-Turkish journalist Hrant Dink was prosecuted under the Article 301 for insulting Turkishness, and received a six month suspended sentence. He was subsequently assassinated by radical nationalists!
Governments of twenty-one countries, including Russia, France, and Germany, as well as forty-three states of the United States of America, have recognized the genocide
