/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The Armenian Assembly of America commended
Congressional Caucus on Armenian Issues Co-Chairs Joe Knollenberg and
Frank Pallone today for launching a letter-writing campaign to ask
President Bush to appropriately acknowledge the Armenian Genocide in
his remembrance remarks next month, the Armenian Assembly of America
reports. â~@~We are writing to urge you to join us in reaffirming the
United States record on the Armenian Genocide in your upcoming April
24th commemorative statement. By properly recognizing the terrible
atrocities committed against the Armenian people as “genocide” in your
statement, you will honor the many Americans who helped launch the
unprecedented U.S. diplomatic, political and humanitarian campaign
to end the carnage and protect the survivors. The United States must
never allow crimes against humanity to pass without remembrance and
condemnation. By commemorating the Armenian Genocide, we renew our
commitment to prevent future atrocities, and therefore negate the
dictum that history is condemned to repeat itselfâ~@~], the message
says.
