Los Angeles-APA. Los Angeles-based Dashnak's Asbarez newspaper
published severe article against the Azerbaijani parliamentarians'
visit to California in the middle August. Allen Yekikan, author of
the article, voiced severe messages not only against Azerbaijan's
Consulate General in Los Angeles and Azerbaijani parliamentarians
but also against the leaders of local Jewish community.
Dashnak's Asbarez reporter protested their support for Georgia at the
press conference hosted by Museum of Tolerance of the Simon Wiesenthal
Center in Los Angeles. As the press conference coincided with Russia's
invasion to Georgia parliamentarian Asim Mollazadeh said this event was
an offensive against the United States, American interests and values.
He said war was going between Russia and Georgia and Osetins were
used for show-off.
The Armenian journalist denounced administration of Museum of
Tolerance too. He accused Museum administration in solidarity with
the Azerbaijani parliamentarians. It is not first accusations by Los
Angeles Armenian community against the Simon Wiesenthal Center Museum
of Tolerance because the Center refused to organize exhibition about
the false "Armenian genocide" in 2003. Armenian Diaspora has targeted
the Museum since than.
Last month Dean of the Simon Wiesenthal Center Rabbi Abraham Cooper
visited Baku. He met with the Azerbaijani officials and representatives
of different religious confessions and Jewish community as well.
