ANKARA: Armenian Lobby: "Turkey Is Threatening The U.S"

ARMENIAN LOBBY: "TURKEY IS THREATENING THE U.S"

Sabah, Turkey
Feb 12 2007

Armenian lobby of the U.S Congress claimed that Turkey is threatening
Washington for the draft bill presented to the House of Representatives
about the so-called Armenian genocide.

Armenian members of the low wing of the Congress; the House of
Representatives Frank Pallone and Joe Knollenberg have written a
letter to the President of the Foreign Affairs Committee Tom Lantos
on this issue.

In the letter, both parliament members said: "As we understand, some
top level Turkish government officers are telling Washington not to
discuss the draft bill in the Congress and threatening Washington by
stating Turkey would stop its logistic support for American soldiers
in Iraq. Such threat, which clearly means interference in the military
operation of the U.S, is absolutely unacceptable.

The letter also said ‘Turkey is already feeling despair in its
campaign on denying the systematic death of 1, 5 million Armenians
which cause Turkish authorities to endanger the lives of American
soldiers in Iraq."
