If it was a concern of the Rats, why didn't they bring it up during FDR's time? Truman's time? Kennedy and LBJ's time? Carter and Clinton's time?

I feel for the Armenians, but we are at war and we have Troops in the field and Allies who are committed to the cause. This is basically the first time I heard of this issue with the Armenians. I am sorry for them. But when this war is over, we can deal with things like this (especially this because it happened nearly a hundred years ago. As far now, we should not be going around driving a wedge between us and our allies.

BTW, Turkey didn't help us on the ground, but they have allowed a vital Air Base to exist.

Even if the cause is good, bad, or indifferent, it don't matter. What Peloser did was cross a line and she should be impeached. Can we impeach Congress?

Actually, the Republican Congress brought it up and Clinton asked Hastert not to bring it to the floor because of the predictable effect on our relation with Turkey.

This was in the news in the last few days. But of course, when Clinton ask for something, unlike Bush asking for same, it’s fine by the MSM.
