This Armenian Strife - This American Life, get it?
John Stewart and "Senior Armeniologist" Aasif Mandvi gave a "Daily Show" treatment to the Armenian Genocide last night. The report titled "This Armenian Strife" started with John Stewart mocking Connie Rice's statement that the Armenian Genocide resolution would be "problematic for everything that we're trying to do in the Middle East." Asked Stewart: "Question: What are we trying to do in the Middle East?" According to Mandvi's report, America has different standards for allies like Turkey than for its enemies. Mandvi suggests that Germany could have renamed the Holocaust the Halfacaust if only Germany had not gone to war with the United States.
Anyway, the report went on for 5 minutes. Funny stuff.
