Rep. Schiff deems U.S. stance on Genocide counter-productive

U.S. Congressman Adam Schiff commented on U.S. policy on Armenian Genocide in his Facebook profile.

Today is the 97th Anniversary of the Armenian Genocide. The continued failure of the U.S. government to recognize the Armenian Genocide is deeply disturbing and from a human rights point of view, terribly counter-productive. If we are to lead the fight against genocide in Darfur or elsewhere, we must be willing to recognize genocide wherever and whenever it has occurred. We cannot pick and choose among genocides,” Congressman Schiff said.
