This is a letter from former American President Bill Clinton to Speaker of the House
Dennis Hastert expressing his concern for House Resolution 596, which is about the Armenian
genocide during the time period of 1915-1923. Clinton states that he observes Armenian
Remembrance Day on April 24 and wants to ensure that such events never occur again but he is
concerned that any legislation concerning the event would have a negative impact. The United
States was fighting Sadaam Huseuin in the region at the time.

Press, 1954), p. 6328.
In this letter addressed to Cleveland Hoadley Dodge, Theodore Roosevelt admits to
feeling guilty for being a hypocrite when he professed his friendship for Armenia and the
downtrodden races of Turkey, but did not go to war with Turkey. He also felt foolish for allowing
the Turks to massacre the Armenians and then solicit permission to help the survivors.

Recently, handfuls of lawsuits billed as attempts to gain reparations for the Armenian Genocide.
These suits were concerned with wrongs done by individuals, not to the harm done to the
Armenians as a group as a whole through the genocide. The focus on individual suits and
exclusion of genuine group reparations are a function of the limits of the Western liberal
individual intellectual and political system that grounds international law.
