Turkey's Erdogan attacks France on genocide law

Mon, Jan 23 2012 Franco-Turkish protesters demonstrate near the Senate in Paris, January 23, 2012, ahead of a vote on a bill to make it illegal to deny the mass killing of Armenians by Ottoman Turks nearly a century ago was genocide, raising the prospect of a major diplomatic rift between two NATO allies.

PARIS/ANKARA (Reuters) - Turkish Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan attacked the French parliament on Tuesday for passing a "discriminatory and racist" bill which makes it illegal to deny that the mass killing of Armenians by Ottoman Turks nearly a century ago was genocide.
