Nancy's Turkish Delight

What could possibly motivate Nancy and her chamber of horrors to go after one of our few true allies in the region over something that happened in 1915 in the waning days of the Ottoman Empire? Is this really the "work of the people" that Congress needs to be spending time on? Did we already solve all the other problems facing our country?

Either Nancy and the House leadership are not very smart, or they are purposely trying to antagonize a key U.S. ally in the region hoping it will hurt our ability to succeed diplomatically and militarily in Iraq and the surrounding region. I suspect the latter.
