Eleven German MPs under police protection in 'genocide' row
Source: BBC
Eleven German MPs of Turkish origin have been put under police protection.
They received death threats after supporting a move to describe the 1915 massacre of Armenians by Ottoman Turks as genocide.
Germany's foreign ministry has warned MPs of Turkish origin against travelling to Turkey, saying their security there could not be guaranteed.
The German parliament's move outraged the Turkish government, which does not recognise the killings as genocide.

(5,082 posts)Obama wont even recognize the Armenian Genocide??? What does this say about his position? Today I also learned Obama's administration is trying to get the DEA to have unhindered access to everyones medical records without a warrant. A judge ruled that it's the most egregious violation of privacy that he had witnessed and ruled against them and now they are trying to appeal. Charging harmless people with multiple felonies because they took too many pills by going to another doctor in order to help them? That is a crime and even worse they think to find and criminally punish people who doctor shopped they should be able to read every persons personal medical history? I can only wonder what information the powers that be had about Obama in 2008 and how they leveraged it because nothing makes sense.
