If Americans are still wondering why the rest of the world isn't keen with the U.S., here's an example why.

Bush warns Congress not to recognise Armenian 'genocide' | Special reports | Guardian Unlimited: "President George Bush today urged members of Congress to reject a congressional resolution recognising the killings of Armenians in 1915 as 'genocide', warning that it would damage US relations with Turkey. The resolution would do 'great harm' to relations, the president told reporters at the White House. He said: 'This resolution is not the right response to these historic mass killings.' His comments followed a similar joint appeal from the US secretary of state, Condoleezza Rice, and the defence secretary, Robert Gates."
