The Turks are VERY good fighters -- I wouldn't bet against them in a battle with Kurds.

I agree the Turks are excellent fighters. I do not doubt that they would attack the Kurds. However, I think the Kurds would acquit themselves very, very, well...then there are the US forces. Iraq, for better or worse, is our protectorate until we pull out. After we are out, I believe the US envisions an IRAQ heavily dependent upon the Kurds who some envision as the buffers between various Iraq factions (personally I say break them up into 4 countries). Finally, I think the story is bogus. The thought of the Turks attacking US, in our protectorate, is absurd.
