Neocons boxed in by Kurdish situation

This is some interesting reading. Turkey has actually sent troops into Iraq to shoot up the PKK Kurds that are terrorizing Turkey.

Turkey is no joke militarily, and is a major player in the region. I wonder if we went off bombing Iran, what the Turks would do.

Apparently the Kurds are Israel and neocon friendly.

Looking forward to everyone's input on this.

I would think that Turkey is acting under it's own authority and in it's own interests. Obviously if you are being attacked you need to counter this somehow. I believe an election is also pretty nigh on the horizon in Turkey so they can't be seen to allowing Turkish people to die to satisfy any American interest.

I think Turkey is going to do what they have to do. They have a decently powerful military.

The question is will we end up fighting the Turks, Iran and Syria at the same time, in Iraq?

Is that all part of the Neocon global domination plan?
