" I doubt we have spent any time on policing Kurdish incursions into Turkey. A lot of folks need to grow up and act like adults in the region."

Exactly, and much better (and quicker) said than I did in several posts to this thread before I read yours. Actually what I am thinking many are missing is that if we want to stay in control of Iraq's sovereignty (for now!), we need to control it in both directions.

On the other hand, this could also be a deep seated problem between some in the Turkish military and the Kurds. If that is the case it needs to be pointed out and worked out by diplomats not our troops on the ground.
