Recognize Armenian Genocide

I am filing this petition on behalf of Armenian people and specifically Armenian communities in US. This petition is about recognition of Armenian Genocide committed by Ottoman Empire in 1915-1923. As a result of that atrocity against humanity and the whole Armenian race, over one and half million of innocent people have been brutally murdered and over two millions were expelled out of their homeland by "Young Turks". . To date, twenty countries and forty eight states of the United States of America officially recognized Armenian Genocide.We plead for acceptance of Armenian Genocide and restitution of Armenian lands as it will change Armenian people's lives and will prevent future genocides; and for the few survivors who are still alive it will mean that justice has finally triumphed.
