Turkish Troops Enter Northern Iraq
Friday, March 21, 2003
CIZRE, Turkey — Turkey sent 1,000 troops into northern Iraq on Friday to bolster its military presence and promised to send more to prevent Iraqi Kurds from creating an independent state.
Its gonna be one big confusing mess over there. I won't be surprised by some "friendly fires" going all over the place.

isn't this what the US had planned all along? What a big mess
YA ALLAH
I thought since the Turks are Muslims, they can do no wrong? Why do they hate the Kurds who are also Muslims? Is it becuase of the devil America?
Well, since America is going to "liberate" Iraq, Turks probably decided they need to "liberate" a few themselves. Maybe Iran will also "liberate" a few on their end. You can't stop people from joining in a "good deed" now, can you?
Faisal ji, are you going to sponsor a resolution in the UN for Turkish encroachment? I thought you had asserted that US actions were illegal? please do post a long thread speling out the logic.
thanks.

"encroachment"? What blashpemy! CH, you should know very well, they are "liberators". UN is irrelevant anyway. So as many people willing to join the "Coalition of the Willing" the better. Bismillah karein.. its a free-for-all there.
SO you are for this right. I thought so. You must be really good at prediction football games’ outcomes on monday morning. :k:
CH.. Under the New-New World Order, this is what US claims the way should be. Pre-emptive strikes. Attack on suspicion. Regime change. Forced disarmament. Turks are not breaking any law, it seems. They are just doing what the high and mighty did first. I wonder why Rumsfield is so uncomfortable at this development. Poor dude was visibly figdeting in the afternoon press briefing on this topic. I may have felt sorry for him even, if was not so smug about the so-called shock-and-awe bombing.
I don't know what Turkey is up to, or where will this lead to, but all I know if Turkey does go in, they want something. And all Hell will break loose. Turkey says according to history they have lands that is with Iraq, and those are where the Kurds are. Turkey does not want the Kurds to make a capital out of Kaluk, and neither does the Iraqis want the Turks to go in south. Lets just wait and see what hell the US has brought upon us.
Allah Ya lan Al-Arab
The only way for the US to definitely succeed in this war (as has been said time ad again), with its obejectives intact and to calm down the wider economic repercussions is if this war is over within a week to 14 days. With Turkey's entrance into Northern Iraq, it looks like as if this war is going to be prolonged endlessly.
Bush is already warning the Americans that the conflict is going to be much longer and harder than previously thought (Reuters).
Turkey from the north, Iranian-backed militias from the east, and Anglo-Saxon alliance the south - this is going to get very, very messy indeed, and for sure the Iraqi people as a whole will be losers in all this.
