2643) Starting Tomorrow, Full Force Of Turkish Government Will Come Down Like A Ton Of Bricks On Washington

OBAMA–BIDEN VICTORY!(Rejoice and be a good payee!),AncaUpdate, 05/11/2008

So what's next for Armenian Americans?

Parev Friend,
It's 11:04pm - and it's clear now that Obama has won.

It was a hard-fought battle between two good men - but two men with very different views on Armenian issues.

I'm very proud of our role in today's results. We endorsed Obama in January when he was fighting an uphill battle for his party's nomination and worked for him right through tonight. We simply couldn't afford another 4 years of the same, hostile anti-Armenian policies.

No matter whom you supported, with the election over, we all want to see truth and justice prevail over Turkey's threats and blackmail. .

We're almost there: The new President-elect supported Armenian issues in the Senate, has pledged if elected to recognize the Armenian Genocide, and picked a running mate with a 35-year pro-Armenian track record.

We're close to the day when an American President finally ends nearly a century of U.S. complicity in Turkey's denials.

Starting tomorrow, the full force of the Turkish government will come down like a ton of bricks on Washington.

Turkish leaders, their lobbyists, and the "usual suspects" in Washington bureaucracies are already out there, using every trick in the book to deliver for Turkey through deceit what they could not win for Ankara at the ballot box.

It's wrong. And I know you won't tolerate it.

That's why I am urgently asking for your financial support. Please, send a secure online donation now so we can fight back starting tomorrow morning against this tidal wave of Turkish attacks.

Every dollar you send will help us break Turkey's ruthless campaign to delay, derail, and defeat U.S. recognition of the Armenian Genocide.

Any donation, $10, $50, $100 or more will make a true difference. Our Cause needs you now more than ever.

Sincerely,

Ken Hachikian, Chairman, ANCA
P.S. Please send your secure online donation tonight - large or small - to complete the honorable work of generations of Armenian Americans to finally end America's shameful silence on the Armenian Genocide.
