because America won the war, was the only superpower, and wrote the history books. That's your only reason.

No, quite wrong.

The Holocaust gets the attention because it was us.

The killers were us, the methods were ours, the victims were us.

The Armenian Genocide (to give it your label) was them.

Easy.

There is none.

I had forgot, sorry. I tried to clarify in my previous posts why Holocaust is such a hot topic beyond what Americans had done to Native tribes and the likes.

No. No more please. I'm not intending to argue on a "lie drama" of which authors fear debating on despite all invitations been made.

The old thread died, LEN, let's not turn this one into a pointless debate in which both sides will not listen to the other.

Seriously I'm trying to avoid it as much as I can. I saw PJ needed some attention and I gave it.

Done with me. Cheers.
