Are you trying to suggest that the U.S. should be "outraged" that Turkey was "in our airspace"?



Are you suggesting everybody can just violate US airspace without permission and kill people/terrorists/whatever? I find that hard to believe. Iraq and the US have repeatedly urged Turkey not to act on its threats to attack rebels/terrorists in Iraq.

The first post, my post, is a serious question regarding a recent news event. That you don't like it does not make it a troll.

US denies backing Turkey PKK raid

The US has denied it gave permission for Turkish aircraft to carry out air strikes against Kurdish PKK separatist rebels in northern Iraq on Sunday.

What makes you think we didn't let them?  Who's to say we didn't have a hand in the planning of this operation?  (at least w/ some intelligence support)

No, I have no problem with terrorists being killed.

Viking, please find out how much it would cost you for a one way ticket to a Kurdish village in the crosshairs.  I'll pay for your ticket.    :D

OBVIOUSLY the U.S. will take the "official" stance they have.  (duh)

Do you REALLY think 50 nme planes will be able to fly over Iraq w/o the U.S. allowing it to happen? (duh)



An even BETTER question is why am I feeding an obvious troll?

Which is a bad move since they look even more powerless to control Iraq now to the Arabs.

Yeah, I think the Turks can do pretty much what they want in the area and the US won't dare to stop them. And this incident proves me right. Turkey has amassed 100,000 troops with tanks and artillery on the border and the Turkish government is threatening to invade north Iraq.
