Joey,

Thanks again for your detailed analysis. The more I hear from Foxman and the ADL's "statements" the more angry I get. Here's what the Boston Globe wrote today:

"In an interview with the Globe, Foxman said that for some time he has privately believed that the mass killings constituted a genocide, but thought that describing them as atrocities or massacres was enough. Yesterday, he said, he realized this description was dividing the Jewish community and the ADL changed its position. So if that word [genocide] brings the community together, that's fine," Foxman added.

He doesn't tell the truth, because it's the right thing to do. He doesn't tell the truth so as to honor the memory of the innocents who were murdered. He doesn't tell the truth to form a solidarity with another oppressed and exterminated people who have never dishonored or disrespected his community the way he is doing to their community. He BEGRUDGINGLY tells the truth so that his lies won't tear apart the Jewish community!

I swear he should just stop saying anything. Everything he says makes it worse. And that cockamamie position letter, in addition to being tortured and shallow, is a further lobby effort against Congressional acknowledgment of the Armenian Genocide. The message it sends to Congress is clear, THE ADL DOES NOT SUPPORT CONGRESSIONAL AFFIRMATION OF THE ARMENIAN GENOCIDE, SO DON'T VOTE IN FAVOR OF IT.

I'm more and more disgusted and upset every day this goes on.
