Science finally. So good to read something that takes brains rather than looking at some grosteque surgeon induced flesh peddling article on how fake you can become even in your elder years if you have money enough to keep the cancer chemicals at bay. News would be males but of course they are brave enough to eat what they want, live anyway, let it all hang out and get use to it. LOL Total bias not doing the older male flesh peddling. Thousands of people with brains devised a way to get a cup of dirt from Bennu so as to decipher the composition of non-planets and if that is useful for future resourcing. A cup of dirt for the future. ")


The first genocide of the 20th century was committed by the Ottoman Empire and now this. Not with the help of Turkey.
Rep. Chris Smith, R-N.J., has sent a letter to the Biden White House imploring it to speak out against genocide against Armenians in the Nagorno-Karabakh region and clarify that the U.S. will not "compromise" with Azerbaijan in the conflict.

"In light of the compelling and urgent testimony provided, I respectfully urge you to immediately clarify that the United States does not tolerate, facilitate, or participate, in negotiations over genocide, and to publicly inform Azerbaijan that unless it immediately lifts its blockade of Nagorno-Karabakh, the U.S. will take action through the United Nations to refer the matter to the International Criminal Court for investigation and prosecution," Smith wrote to President Biden in a Thursday letter.
The testimony Smith referenced was from Luis Moreno Ocampo, former chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court, who testified in front of the bipartisan Tom Lantos Human Rights Commission, which Smith co-chairs, on Thursday.
"Mr. President, there is little doubt that this humanitarian crisis was planned, tested, and imposed by President Ilham Aliyev, who rules Azerbaijan as a dictator. His record of human rights abuses is decades in the making as I met with him in Baku in 2013 and 2014 arguing then about both his mistreatment and jailing of Azerbaijani human rights activists and abusive treatment of Armenian Christians," Smith wrote.
