Can Porto Rico or Washington D.C. recognize 1915 Armenian Genocide ?
It is strange that there has been no replies to my question. It seems that one does not see the strategic symbolic importance of these two cases.
I think if Washington DC and Puerto Rico recognize the 1915 AG, it would be a splap to the Federal Government which religion is Realpolitik and which is no longer "For the People and with the People". I don't know, I am not American, I do not know how they react.
I dont know much of the subject to say any opinion in the matter..also you seam to be a bot !
As my English is not so good, I was obliged to look in the dictionary to understand the word "bot". I understand what you mean. A bot-fly stings the horse and that does not mean that the carriage will go forward (and in the right direction).
A "bot" in french is also a larva, a grub, something unsignificant. And what you feel is right, I am unsignificant facing the Federal US Government, I am nothing comparing to this HUGE state machine of Washington.
I saw the film "Lions for lambs" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lions_for_Lambs but still with this film there is hope regarding American Democracy "by the people, for the people".
But which is important is to see how the recognition of 1915 AG by Washington DC and Porto Rico can be be active in the Amercian Unconscious.
And symbolically I would go farther, deeper : it would be very good if the Native Americans, Red Skin Indian Associations would recognize the Armenian Genocide !
