Denying history to preserve the present

Turkey, a key ally in our war in Iraq, threatens repercussions if
Congress officially recognizes genocide against Armenians around the
time of World War I. President Bush is calling on Congress to look
the other way and ignore the genocide of perhaps 1.5 million
Armenians by Ottoman Turks. Would we deny the Holocaust, too, if
Germany had Turkey’s clout? Sadly, we must now pause before
answering.
