Weird. Any comments from FR's Turks? Are the Turcomen being intimidated or do they really oppose Turkey coming to northern Iraq after all?

Everything about this entire Turkish deal seems odd.

After seeing that Turcoman leaders have been arrested by Kurds several times over the past few weeks, anything is possible.

Certainly there are interest groups who fear a secure and prosperous Republic of Turkey. Those would be the same interest groups who supported terrorism there.

Some inside information: Destro's Greek family had to leave Turkey because of enmities that resulted from WW1. Any article Destro posts is guaranteed to be anti-Turk, unless he falls, bumbps his head, passes out, and wakes a new man.
