I am, unfortunately, convinced these historical matters are only managed and used by political motives. Maybe it was or not a genocide, but I do not believe Sweden cares, if not for its own inside political agenda.

The Jewish Rothscilds who financed the killings of Armenians are just as guilty as their Turks executors and those who are pressing governments around the World, such as the Swedish one, are those same Jews financiers of the killings, but they are doing now for different reasons. You see, the Jews had all planned to details to keep governments they financed in the past strictly under their control and when the Turks have strayed a bit against Jewish interest, they hit back with a powerful message. This is a lesson for those whom are contemplating dealing with the Jews.

While I totally agree 100% that there was (and really continues to be) a genocide against all Christians by Turks, please don't call Turkey - the great Turk Nation.  They stole that land from Christians, and in the end killed almost each and every one.  They also invaded Cyprus in the 1970's, still remain there and continue to take land from Christians and give to the Turks who live there.  Turkey is an awful Nationalist Christian hating, honor killing country.  They also have a very high rate of mental disabilities, blindness, deafness and birth defects due to first cousin marriages. They're just gross!
