How could Germany make Turkey doing this to us, too?

Congrats for that vote, America. Genocide remains genocide, no matter what strategic interests one has. And if Turkey hates to be reminded of shadows in its past - who outside Turkey gives a penny for that? They simply have not to demand other sovereign nations to be obedient to Turkey's will.

The ties between Turkey and the US are loosening since longer. Even when ignoring my personal scepticism for Turkey, I would recommend America to replace the strategic options Turkey means for them by alternatives, in America's best own interest. The sooner, the better, for nobody must want to depend on Turkey. It will come to that segregation anyway in the not far away future. The only question is wether one wastes time and later needs to change course in a hurry, or if one has enough time to control course and pace of this needed adaptation process.
