Turkey claims that it is opposed to war in Iraq while planning to invade itself.

We're not willing to see Iraq carved up with invading forces from Turkey, Iran, or anyone else.

It's a very dangerous game that Turkey is trying to play, and they had better think this through.

Turkey claims that it is opposed to war in Iraq while planning to invade itself.

I know. It's like we've recently fallen through a rip in the space-time fabric and found ourselves in BizarroWorld or something. I think what we're really witnessing is a sea-change in worldwide international relations, something of a realignment that will shape the first half of the twenty-first century. Bush's war on terrorism and terrorist states like Iraq with WMD has merely exposed the conflict more openly than ever.

The Axis of Weasels, along with merely self-interested parties like Turkey or Russian, are fighting to impose an order that will favor their inefficient and outdated economic policies and to try to be relevant internationally.
