The Glendale News-Press Editorial: In support of Schiff's resolve
18:01, 21 March, 2015
GLENDALE, MARCH 21, ARMENPRESS: It's been such an oft-repeated action
that it's almost a familiar tradition for Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Burbank)
to introduce a resolution calling on our president to seek the
Republic of Turkey's unequivocal acknowledgment of the Armenian
Genocide. As reports Armenpress referring to The Glendale News-Press
published an article In support of Schiff's resolution, in which it
says:
"As expected, Schiff, along with more than 40 other members of the
House of Representatives, made the valiant attempt earlier this week
to right what has been a horrible wrong. Will their efforts succeed in
this, the 100th anniversary of the genocide?
We're not hopeful, but we heartily endorse their dogged determination
to insist our country's leaders summon the courage to stand up to the
Turkish government. Should the "Armenian Genocide Truth and Justice
Resolution" fail to gain traction this year, we urge Schiff and his
colleagues to continue fighting the battle until they succeed.
Turkey has undeniable geostrategic importance, sitting as it does at
the very crossroads of Europe and Asia. But our country's leaders
can't let their fear of harming our bilateral relationship from
correcting such an injustice.
Today's Armenians are long overdue a formal apology. Its absence makes
it impossible to heal from the atrocities inflicted on their
forebears. There is no better time than this - the century mark of the
beginning of the years-long genocide - for our leaders to speak up
loudly and very clearly against it and demand that Turkey's leaders do
the same".
