"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!??

Turkey has committed political, strategic, and military suicide.

You forgot "diplomatic" and "financial".

and now they'll have to foot the bill all by themselves for expenses due to a war on their border. if they thought the last war was costly to their well-being, they ain't seen nothing yet.

maybe germany, russia or france can help them out with their Diners Card. they should have applied for the American Express.
