Then why did you insinuate that this resolution carried any penalties or reparations?

If I understood your point in your posts, and I think I did.

I didn't say it carried penalties or reparations.

But some paragraphs near the end of the resolution imply that imposing some sort of punishment would be a necessary step toward forestalling future genocides.

In Section 2, Paragraph 30, of House Resolution 106 the authors say that,,,
past "recognition and affirmation of the Armenian genocide" has not stopped genocides, because those who carried out the Armenian genocide were not punished.

In other words, someone must be punished for the Armenian genocide if we want to stop genocide
