October 17, 2007 | ISSUE 43•42

Turkey recalled its ambassador to the U.S. and warned there would be dire consequences if Congress passes a resolution classifying the massacre of 1.5 million Armenians between 1915 and 1923 as genocide. What do you think?

  • This is reminiscent of when Germany withdrew their ambassador until America officially recognized Oktoberfest.

  • Well, politics is all about finding a middle ground. How about calling it an unmitigated slaughter? Would that work?

  • If there's anything our Congress is good at, it's passing philosophical resolutions in name only that have no tangible outcome.
