Prime Minister Stephen Harper used a closed-door roundtable
with Toronto-based ethnic media to complain about the reluctance
of bureaucrats and diplomats to defend the Federal Conservative’s
hardline foreign policy stance.

Harper suggested he’s being undermined by public servants in the
foreign service.

The Toronto Star obtained a recording of the comments from the June
15th meeting.

Harper’s comments were a response to questions about his 2006 decision
to recognize the deaths of about 1.5 million Armenians in Turkey in
1915 as genocide.

The head of the union representing Canada’s foreign service says he’s
"shocked" by Harper’s comments.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
