ADL INSISTS ON "GENOCIDE"

Last week, the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) claimed that the Armenian
affairs in 1915 were "equal to genocide," and caused reaction of
Turkey. The ADL Chairman Abraham Foxman insists on this claim still.
Abraham Foxman, in his last article published on the ADL website
and in the magazine "The Jewish Advocate," repeated his claim that
the affairs in 1915 were genocide. He admitted that these sort of
assertions do no good to the Turkish-Armenian relations, but that
they will not step back about them.
In his article, Foxman wrote, "We have heard, for tens of years,
that Jewish leaders have been trying to define the actions of Turks
against Armenians as genocide. As a Jewish- supporting constitution,
we could not remain indifferent to the subject. Still, we have a
dilemma: We have committed ourselves to educating people against all
kinds of violence, not only anti-Semitism; so, we cannot ignore the
things done to the Armenian community in the Ottoman Empire."
He continued the article, saying that they are against the decision
of the US Congress on the subject of the so-called Armenian genocide,
but they will keep using the term "genocide."
On the other hand, the ADL re-employed Andrew Tarsy, whom they had made
redundant after his causing an internal chaos within the constitution
about the affairs in 1915. While he was the New England agent of the
ADL, he objected the policy of the constitution for the first time,
saying that the affairs were genocide, and that had caused him to be
out of his job. After many sub-commissions within the ADL displayed
a position supporting that policy, Foxman and the administration
altered their attitude as well.
