Even though the chatter says no.
MSM is feeding you shit, as usual, Amurkns!
"Turkey: Iraq Attack Waits for D.C. Talks" by Christopher Torchia/Associated Press October 27, 2007
ISTANBUL - The top U.S. military commander in northern Iraq said he plans to do "absolutely nothing'' to counter Kurdish rebels who are staging deadly cross-border attacks into neighboring Turkey.
Military momentum and public calls for action are building in Turkey. Turkish aircraft reportedly bombed more suspected rebel hideouts inside Turkey yesterday.
A military campaign in northern Iraq worries Washington. It also would put the U.S. in an awkward position.
Awwww, we'd be in an awkward position!
Serves the US right for starting this whole mess!
Foreign Minister Ali Babacan was scheduled to fly to Iran on Saturday to discuss the crisis.
Iran? What the hell is our "friend" going to Iran for?
Maj. Gen. Benjamin Mixon, the top U.S. military commander in northern Iraq, said Friday it was not the U.S. military's responsibility to act against PKK rebels operating from the region.
Especially when we are using them against Iran!
He said he had sent no additional American troops to the border area and was not tracking hiding places or supply activities of PKK guerrillas.
Speaking to Pentagon reporters from a U.S. base near Tikrit in northern Iraq, Mixon also said he had not seen Iraqi Kurd authorities move against the rebels:
"I have not seen any overt action, but those are the types of activities that are managed and coordinated at higher levels than my own.''
Whose higher than us in Iraq? WTF?
Mossad?
Jamal Abdullah, a spokesman for the autonomous Kurdish regional government:
"The PKK is not a licensed party with known offices and officials in the north of Iraq. I do not know how we are supposed to arrest people who are unknown to us. They might be situated in mountainous area near the border or they might be in Turkey itself.''
We don't wanna hear it; just stop 'em!
You know, like AmeriKa stopped the wave of illegals from Mexico.
You ought to be able to handle your borders, Kurds!
"Iraq Plan to Add U.S. Troops at Kurdish Border Is Rejected by Turkey" by SEBNEM ARSU and ANDREW E. KRAMER
ANKARA, Turkey, Oct. 26 — Although American military officials were part of the delegation taking part in the meetings, it was unclear what role, if any, the military might ultimately agree to.
WTF? Mixon said there wasn't a thing he could do.
Really, the lying has to stop, MSM!
Turkish troops continued to pour into staging areas near the border on Friday, while Turkish officials said that airstrikes had already been carried out inside Iraq.
I told you it was an invasion!
Meanwhile, a senior American general in Iraq played down the chances of any new American military commitment in the conflict. The officer, Maj. Gen. Benjamin R. Mixon, the top American commander in northern Iraq, said that he had no plans to order his troops to confront Kurdish rebels in the mountains.
The general, speaking to reporters in Washington over a video link from Iraq, was asked what American forces plan to do about fighters of the P.K.K.
“Absolutely nothing.” he responded."
What can he do? We can't even control Baghdad!
Where would he get the troops?
Why would we want to spoil the operations against Iran?
Why is the Mossad up there?
