THE TURKS ARE UNHAPPY ABOUT THE ARMENIA VOTE: I don’t have a problem with the resolution as such, but who decided that now is a good time to upset the Turks?

UPDATE: Some thoughts on the subject from Max Boot.

ANOTHER UPDATE: I’ve gotten a lot of comments like this one from reader Dave Schneider:

Who thought this would be a good time to upset the Turks? The Democrats, who see the possibility that we might NOT lose in Iraq slipping.

So, if you can’t cut off funds for the war, be more subtle: provoke the Turks into cutting our supply lines and make success much more difficult.

I don’t think the Democrats are quite that Machiavellian, but clearly quite a few other people feel differently.
