I would like to thank all those who are working for recognition of the Armenian Genocide. I am hoping in this centennial year their goal will be realized and President Obama will fulfil his promise to the Armenian American community. It is the right thing to do. We owe this to 1.5 million Armenians who perished and their demise has been denied over and over again for political expediency. The truth should always prevail.
I need to know which party does not want to recognize the Armenian genocide.. Armenians have to put there voices and there money together to vote them out of office .
Indeed my thanks and gratitude also goes to everybody who seeks justice. Thanks a million to all.
thanks thanks and thanks again to all.
