I wouldn't jump to that conclusion. Turkey is very concerned about the damage strikes from Iraq would have on their economy and would like, as part of working with the United States, some "insurance" against such an event.

The United States agrees with them. What is at issue is how large that "check" should be made out for, and that is what they are negotiating.
