German recognition of Armentian genocide

[Benton]

I have a hard time lumping the Armenian Genocide in with the Holocaust. The Armenians were killed, in part, because of the fear of allying with Russia. Something that, at the time, many countries were afraid of by a minority population. A decade or so after the series of genocides were happening, you had Russia's revolution of 1917 and we had our first Red Scare. We're somewhere around our third or fourth (16th on this board).
