Oppose AJR 2: A racist resolution in California

influenced by Armenian Lobby

Dear Friends,

On December 3, 2012, there was a swearing in ceremony in Sacramento, California for the incoming legislators. As soon as the ceremony was over, State Assemblymen Katcho Achadjian (an ethnic Armenian) and Mike Gatto introduced Assembly Joint Resolution 2, on, you guessed it, the alleged Armenian Genocide, for the millionth time!

To these legislators, real issues like unemployment, healthcare, education, sluggish economy, national debt, fiscal cliff, and others simply do not seem to matter. They have a single issue and that’s that ! It is so important to them that it could not wait the second day of business in Sacramento.

“We should be just as swift and take action against AJR 2 via a PaxTurcica CapWiz” said Ergun Kırlıkovalı, the president of ATAA. He added: “Deceived by Armenian lobby, AJR 2 seeks California Assembly to legislate the Armenian version of history. Based on a long discredited political claim of genocide, without any historical or legal substantiation, AJR 2 deliberately misrepresents World War I era inter-communal atrocities in the Ottoman Empire and calls upon the U.S. Government and Congress to do the same.”

Today, there is something you can do to fight such unprovoked defamation, unjustified demonization, and relentless ethno-religious discrimination embodied in racist and dishonest Armenian resolutions like AJR 2.
