Wasn't there also opposition to the Armenian genocide being included in the Holocaust museum? Turkey is in a way a friend of Israel so Israel and its US lobby didn't want to embarrass Turkey with the Armenian question.
Generally speaking, I always found the very establishment of a "United States Holocaust Museum" strange (isn't that the official name?), because both the Armenian and the Jewish and Gypsy genocides were crimes of other nations.
