Pelosi and a bunch of her traitorous Democratic Congressional associates (Brad Sherman, Adam Schiff, and Steny Hoyer among others - remember these scumbags and vote them out of office) were pushing a bill to label the mass killing of Armenians in Turkey from 1915-1917, Genocide. The vote for such a bill passed in a 27 to 21 vote in the foreign affairs committee along party lines- Democrats voting for it and Republicans against. Why is it so important to pass this bill now, 90 years after it actually happened? Well, that is the rub isn't it! We'll get to that later, first let's look at what happened in Turkey at that time.
From 1915-1917, the Ottoman Empire (a Muslim run government by the way!) committed many deplorable and horrendous acts against resident Armenians, who were at that time a minority population of the Empire. They were considered minorities not because they were few in number, but rather due to their religion. Take note: a Muslim run government eradicating a competing religion. Ultimately, millions were tortured and killed during this reign of terror. Was it Genocide? Calling a Rose a shovel. doesn't make it any less beautiful, and calling a despicable human event anything else does not change the stench of it either! What is to be gained, or lost from this effort? Please note that the Ottoman Empire collapsed in 1923 and the present ruling government of Turkey had nothing - ABSOLUTELY NOTHING - to do with the attacks on Armenians!!
So, why did Pelosi and the Democrats want to push this supposedly "important and necessary" Bill now at this point in time? Answer - to damage important relations with Turkey and hamper the USA's efforts in Iraq! Turkey is our most important ally in the war in Iraq! How important is Turkey to our efforts in Iraq?
- 70% of all air cargo for Iraq goes through Turkey
- 33% of fuel for Iraq goes through Turkey
- 95% of all new military vehicles designed for better protection from mines passes through Turkey
Many on the right have questioned Pelosi's and the Democrats' motivation for this bill, and rightfully so. And to further prove the major medias ties to the Democratic Party, the major news media was attempting to support the Democrat's supposed cause for pushing the Bill! The lack of any true and viable reason for pushing this now made for some pathetic results, but it easily points out that the media is owned by the Left and the Democratic Party. They are nothing but lapdogs doing what they are told! There are some exceptions, but they are as the saying goes, "Few and far between". The press is now the biggest and longest running joke in this country!
When asked why she was doing this now, Pelosi said that there has never been a good time for the resolution and that it was important to pass it now because many of the survivors were very old. What a stupid and ridiculous response! We should risk the safety and well being of our troops because some Armenian survivors of the tragedy are very old? How did this woman ever get elected? Californians should be ashamed of themselves!
Some folks feel that this entire situation was a Machiavellian plot to elicit Turkey's cutting off America's ability to arm, feed, clothe, fuel, and medically care for her soldiers in the war zone in Iraq from the airbases inside Turkey. They say if this is true, Nancy Pelosi is guilty of treason, and usurpation of executive authority and Congressional authority. SHE IS!!! And, so are all of the Democrats who made this move with her!!!
The only reasonable interpretation of why the Democrats tried to push the Bill at this point in time was to damage US-Turkey relations, thereby throwing a huge monkey wrench into the Iraq war. The Democrats were hoping that this in turn would lead to the resignation of Americans and the President to troop withdrawals in Iraq. As you'll recall, the Democrats have placed a lot on the USA losing in Iraq, and at the moment, it looks like the military will pull this one out. The turnaround in Iraq will make problems for the Democrats come election time, and they care more about staying in office and power than the well being of the country, the military or your sons and daughters fighting over in Iraq!!!!
The Turkey Government has already stated that if this Resolution passed that they would kick us out of the southeastern Turkey airbase, Incirlik, a critical airbase to our Iraqi operations, halt our military over-flight privileges over the entire country, and shut down our supply routes into northern Iraq, Anyone, and I do mean anyone, with one-tenth of a brain knew that this would be the result of this Resolution being pushed by the Democrats. I would say that not only did the Democrats know this, they were counting on it!!
The Democrats thought that this would be a brilliant ploy- they (the Democrats) would get to stab our military efforts in the back and then be able to blame it on Turkey. They pretend they are responding to American-Armenians while they actually make a move to placate their fanatical idiotic supporters (see MoveOn.org) on the far left. Apparently it looked like a cost-free strategy for the Dems, but they underestimated the potential backlash. As one reporter wrote "This is one of the most cynical betrayals thrust upon Americans in our legislative history". The Dems betrayed our troops, Iraqi citizens, American-Armenians, and all US citizens. The Democrats need to pay severely for this!
Suddenly, top Democrats are leaning on Pelosi to drop the matter and not bring the resolution to the floor, but they only started to do this after the Resolution and the Turkish government's reaction to it were brought to the general public's attention by Talk Radio hosts Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh and Michael Savage. Thank god for talk radio. Rep. John P. Murtha has now urged Pelosi not to bring the resolution to the floor. Where was he earlier since he is the Democrats supposed "military expert"? He above anyone else in their party should have known what Turkey's reaction would have been! Murtha was very recently reported to have said that party leaders miscalculated support for the measure. What he should have said is "we've (the Democrats) been found out and this attempt to sabotage the War in Iraq is going to cause big trouble for us!"
The Democrats' traitorous act has already caused damage to US-Turkey relations Lets just hope it is repairable. Our Troops safety depends on it.
What needs to happen next is that Nancy Pelosi needs to be removed as the Speaker of the House, the Democrats that played a part in this sabotage attempt need to be driven out of office, and Pelosi and her gang need to be tired for treason!
As one reporter put it simply, "Every human being with a drop of Armenian blood deserves justice. This isn’t it. If this resolution is so important, why didn’t the Democrats ever pass it during the 60 plus years (since 1931) they had control Congress?"
The Democrats must pay for their treachery!
