THE 'GENOCIDE' LABEL IS ACCURATE BUT COUNTERPRODUCTIVE

The Ottoman Empire's murderous deportation of Armenians nine
decades ago was genocidal. Turkey's refusal to recognize that fact is
outrageous. But the move for a House resolution labeling it "genocide"
is irresponsible. Besides antagonizing a key ally, it will entrench
the Turkish position. Why push the resolution now?
Supporters claim it will help reclaim our moral authority. Well,
that will take work, not words.
