The lesson of the Armenian genocide should not be lost on us as we witness the heartbreaking TV images from Kosovo. Truly. a major justification for the NATO campaign is to try to ensure that the 20th century. which began in genocide. not end in genocide. Back in the waning years of the Ottoman Empire. when Armenians were being murdered and deported. and their homes and communities burned and destroyed. and all record of the Armenian presence erased. there was no Western alliance of democracies like NATO committed to stopping aggression. brutality and genocide. I just want to say in conclusion. I want to take this opportunity to express my admiration for our men and women in uniform who are fighting to stop the horrible ethnic cleansing of the Kosovar Albanians.
