There's a new and bizarre twist in the unending political battle
over an Armenian Genocide resolution -- a battle in which San Joaquin
Valley lawmakers and local residents have long played key roles.
As part of an Ohio election dispute, a woman named Sibel Edmonds who
served very briefly as an FBI translator has been making pointed and
wide-ranging allegations against Turkish officials. The unproven and
reputation-damaging allegations against past and present members of
Congress, which she first raised in a deposition, now get broader
play in a story coming out this week in Pat Buchanan's magazine The
American Conservative. Without endorsing any of Edmonds' unproven
claims, the article might be worth a look for those deeply interested
in Armenian-American issues.
