Nancy.

So what about Nancy Pelosi; does she really care about the atrocities the ethnic Armenians of WWI endured at the hands of the then Ottoman Empire? Seems quite odd that she would be so persistent about labeling those acts genocide all these years later. Stranger still perhaps is the fact that she is leveling the accusations at a nation (Turkey) which did not even yet exist at the time the atrocities were committed. Even as Turkey has said they will evict US forces from a critical base in Turkey's southwestern region, Pelosi has remained suspiciously rigid and defiant saying repeatedly that the Armenians deserve justice! And so they do, but not now and not at the cost of our efforts in the Middle East. She knows, I fear, that if we as a Nation label the Turks as genocidal maniacs and we are evicted from the base there that we will lose the ability to enforce the no-fly-zone and we will lose critical northern supply routes into Iraq. SO is she advancing the Socialcrat's defeatest agenda, or is she simply the careing humanitarian we all know her as. Only time will tell.
