On Sunday, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi continued her crusade
to get a resolution passed calling the 1915 massacre of Armenians by
Ottoman Turk genocide despite concerns by the White House of potential
damages to their relationship with Turkey.

According to the Reuters web site, "A congressional community on
Wednesday, approved the Armenian resolution, sponsored by a California
lawmaker whose district has a large Armenian-American constituency."

The full vote will be put before the House by mid-November. President
George W. Bush has vehemently opposed the resolution. "We regret that
Speaker Pelosi is intent on bringing this resolution for a vote despite
the strong concern expressed by foreign policy and defense experts,"
White House spokesperson Tony Fratto said.
