On a side note about Kurdistan, as a country it never existed.

IMO, I highly doubt the United States would ever unknowingly allow any countries aircraft (especially those really fast ones, that every other country buys from us) into "OUR" airspace, without permission. And I'm fairly positive, Turkey asked permission to do so... I have to agree with Lute. This is some rediculous chit.

Do you realize how many AWACS we have over there?  We have the entire region under radar control. And If there was any threat to "our" airspace or our people, those Turkish planes wouldn't have ever made it home.

It's interesting that so many Americans are supporting the Turkish attack on Northern Iraq in pursuit of the PKK.

Let's raise an interesting hypothetical analogy. I wonder what the reaction would be to the RAF attacking particular targets thought to be important to the IRA within the Irish Republic, prior to British troops crossing the border into Ireland itself.

Would those events been met with the same response?

God, imagine that.  A country wants to rule themselves by carving it out of other countries' land and uses terrorist like activities to get there.



Who does this remind me of?  Why does it sound so familiar?

The point still stands, they have too much to lose by doing so.  All risk, no reward.

How nice of you to try to move the goalposts for the original poster, instead of minding your own business.  Further proof you can not control your trollish nature.
