Thank you for posting this.
The federal indictment against Adams states:
On April 21, 2022, the Turkish official messaged the Adams staffer, noting that Armenian Genocide Remembrance Day was approaching, and repeatedly asked the Adams staffer for assurances that Adams would not make any statement about the Armenian Genocide…. The Adams staffer confirmed that Adams would not make a statement about the Armenian Genocide. Adams did not make such a statement.
It seems that after genocide is committed, there is a great effort placed to keeping it under wraps - even though decades have passed. Perhaps because the truth keeps surfacing.
In light of the ongoing genocide by the Israeli government against the people of Palestine, it would be prudent for the USA to be mindful of this.

- I think David Van Zandt has a vendetta against Philip Weiss. Racists tend to be unfeeling or feel contempt for 'lesser' racial groups, and are merely indifferent to their suffering. The most intense 'hate' in hate groups comes from the intensity of feeling racists have toward other people of their own race they perceive as 'race traitors' - who demonstrate that people who share their culture and heritage can afford empathy for the 'other' whom racists believe are unworthy of concern.
  Truthout is a reputable website, with good journalism and reporting. There's a number of other websites that report favorably on Palestinians, and don't toe Van Zandt's line that criticism of Israel and antisemitism are the same thing. They have higher 'Credibility' and 'Factual Reporting' scores than Truthout. But Truthout occasionally rehosts reporting from Mondoweiss, a site that Van Zandt has labelled as 'antisemitic,' and therefore Truthout must be punished for giving support to the most notorious enemy of Israel -- 'self-hating' Jews.
  
  "Truthout" is just rage bait, even more so than more mainstream news media. They have no access to get interviews or direct reporting on the ground. Every article is just an opinion piece, whether they label it or not, because their goal is to enrage left wing readers.
