Kurdish forces have warned that they will treat Turkish troops crossing the border into Iraq as the enemy. The warning has alarmed Turkish military leaders, who have asked the Bush administration to intervene, Middle East Newsline reported.
Huh? The warning has alarmed Turkish military leaders, who have asked the Bush administration to intervene.

"The warning has alarmed Turkish military leaders, who have asked the Bush administration to intervene." Turkey has committed political, strategic, and military suicide. They led us on for over a month into believing we could deploy through their country. We had thousands of troops (real live people, ya know - Americans at that), thousands of tons of military hardware), and billions of dollars committed to it.
Their blunders could cost American lives - people who might even be from your home town.
They forfeited billions of U.S. dollars in aid in hopes of making land grabs before the dust settles from the pending war.
They even deployed tens of thousands of Turkish troops in southern Turkey to intentionally outnumber any American force there - why?
And now, they want US to hold back the KURD!??

Yeah, ain't that sumthin? It's like a burglar calling the cops when you tackle him as he helps himself to your home and possessions. (Of course, the ACLU has made that sort of lunacy commonplace as well).
