"Sweden labels mass killing of Armenians genocide"
It seems that Sweden was able to do what Obama and the Federal Government are too scared to do. Officially declaring what the Turks did to the Armenians during and after World War 1 is genocide and should be called as such. Other countries that have officially recognized the Armenian Genocide are: Uruguay, Chile, Argentina, Russia, Canada, Lebanon, Belgium, Greece, Italy, the Vatican, France, Switzerland, Slovakia, the Netherlands, Poland, Lithuania and Cyprus.
So Turkey gets a little upset and sends their ambassador home for a while - big deal. If other major countries are willing to stand up for what is right then the US should too.
