On the eve of Easter and the April 24th National Day of Prayer for the victims of the Armenian Genocide, US President Barack Obama again betrayed his pledge to properly condemn and commemorate this crime against humanity, reported the Armenian National Committee of America (ANCA).
Despite his repeated, detailed, and unambiguous pledges to recognize the Armenian Genocide, the president offered only euphemisms and evasive terminology to describe the murder of over 1.5 million men, women and children. In refusing, under foreign pressure from Turkey, to honor his pledge, he again fell far short of his own view, as voiced during his campaign, that America deserves a president who uses the term “genocide” to convey the full factual, moral, legal, and contemporary political meaning of this crime against all humanity.
