WOW If anyone saw the PBS Documentary on the Armenian Genocide click here
I watched it twice right in a row - the first time with minimal comment (sometimes i just couldn't help myself) the second time I add libbed additional facts/info & explanations to my wife as we watched it again. I've recorded the entire show onto my HD and will likely watch it again. it would be interesting to see transcripts and then annotate them - the structure of the presentation was absolutly first rate and could be used as the basis for a much more detailed overview and analysis. And a very good use of Turks all around...

They were looking for some audience members to interview.

It was extremely well done. While it could only gloss over much and did not detail as much of the actual hatred and scapegoating of Armenians by Turks (and why) nor get into some of the revolutionary (and racist/Pan Turkic) aspects of the CUP movement and how this contributed to their pre-planning of the Genocide (not as a result of defeats by Russia and blaming Armenians - this was used as one of many tactics to incite hatred against Armenians and justify actions - but the plan was premeditated prior to this time)...anyway for a 1 hour program it was brilliant - the best I have ever seen...
Yes it was great and there was a standing ovation for Mr.Goldberg after the movie when he thanked the audience for coming there were shouts of NO, THANK YOU's from the audience.
