ANKARA, Turkey - Turkey's Cabinet agreed Monday to send troops to Iraq (news - web sites) to help stabilize the country — a decision that could relieve U.S. operations in Iraq and help Turkey mend frayed relations with the United States.

The decision now faces a tough approval from parliament, which is likely to vote on the issue this week. If approved, Turkey would become the first predominantly Muslim nation to contribute troops to Iraq.

Translation: Screw you Chirac and you liberal rats in the US, Bush is right.

[GraniteStateConservative]

Bush's one big failure was not lining up support for reconstruction outside of the framework of the UN-- so he had to go back for a new reconstruction resolution. If he can get Turkey (and India and South Korea, Germany and Russia) to help, he will have mostly redeemed himself. You can't say the UN risks irrelevancy and then mostly act like they are still relevant afterward.

The Kurds will love this.

But why would Turkey want to send troops into a Quagmire? </dripping sarcasm>
