Thank you Armenian American community activists, ANC MA and others for keeping the pressure on decision makers in this lawsuit like Judge Wolf to ensure it received the attention of our community and did not fade away as an irrelevant news item. Let’s be honest, without them, Judge Wolf may have been swayed like others before him. Our success has much to do with our communities actions then anything else. WE made the right decision to invest in this battle and succeeded. Thank you Armenian American activists. Keep up the great work!
Good points Hovsep. I agree totally.
Now onwards with the mobilisation of the Armenian community in the US, or better still, worldwide, for that other notorious case the American Assembly of turkish Associations (AATA)/the Turkish government have filed, this time against the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLA) for their brave articles detailing Turkish government efforts to manipulate U.S. academia to deny that crime against humanity.
What the SPLA did to expose Turkish distortion of history and denial of the Armenian Genocide, on their own initiative, deserves the maximum support of all decent human beings and the Armenians in particular. As the Weekly’s feature above correctly puts it:
“This case is part of a larger strategy by Turkish American groups to use the legal system to harass human rights advocates on issues relating to the Armenian Genocide”. Therefore we must spare no efforts to make sure it does not succeed but fails, and the SPLA come out of this victorious, as happened in the Massachusetts education curriculum case where the denialsts have suffered a major defeat thanks partly to community organisation and mobilisation.
