Turks are for the Turks
We have done it again. Alienating another nation. I know that Turkey delivered a message to Syria about the bombing in their country by the Israelis, the same day that it happened, but it probably was a planned event. Now the house committee has, in its infinite wisdom, against the administrations strenuous objections, completed a resolution at the time of WWI Turkey committed genocide against the Armenian population. This had been talked about since that time, I think, We did not condemn Turkey then, but now.....With much of our military supplies coming through Turkey to Iraq. That and Turkeys'economic ties with Northern Iraq. This could be disastrous.....Really, a lot of thought had to go into creating this mess..Just think of the ramifications!!!!!The Turkish US ambassador has been recalled to Turkey. We are waiting for the next shoe to drop...And believe me it will drop.

youre right on spot Tap..but alas the Saudis and their oil are our best friends..musnt alienate them or else!..!..Have a great weekend!:)
Just another example that we do not send our brightest people to Washington DC.
Paul, thanks for stopping by....I also said in my post that we didn't react to a resolution before...I just heard that that is not the case. we have responded not once, but twice. Sorry, my mistake, but it doesn't alter the fact that this House just doesn't get it. Not now not ever......We need much change. Me thinks they think they are above the people...I say they should know better by now.......but.....stay well...
Wht, thanks for stopping by..I did this post and went as I was driving to town today, I heard Rush!!!!on the radio, He was beside himself because of this vote. I agree with the Saudi comment. .....stay well....
Tapline,
Thank you for stopping by my blog.
Late tonight or early tomorrow, I'll be posting on this Congressional resolution. The entire scenario is a trap, a double-edged sword.
Foreign entanglements so often result in our not looking out for our own interests.
AOW, Thanks for stopping by. I know, but we think that our elected leaders would have some inkling as to the ramifications of what they are doing on the people that are effected. As we have done after years of infighting, paid off some of the Indians for taking their land, by giving some back and paying monitariy for past wrongs. Turkey would be facing reparations as we did if they admitted to something their forefathers did or didn't do. We better clean up our own messes before attempting to cast stones. "He who is without sin, let him cast the first stone." ....stay well
