We can invade a country to fight terrorism, but turkey is told not too...well they are starting to amass their 1,000,000+ man army along the Iraqi border and are ready to defy bush by going in to do exactly what we did, except these terrorists are on their border.
Statement from turkey "[para-phrased] We will fight until every last turk is dead if we have too!"
Now imagine the reaction from Iran, and the rest of the world when this large army pours into Iraq. It's not going to be pretty.
Once again the bush administration, in offering NO help in putting down the Kurdish PKK for Turkey or even letting them do it themselves, but yet illegally enters a nation in the name of stopping terrorists half the earth away for it's own agenda will cause more bloodshed and further alienate us from the eastern countries, wobbling a dangerously unstable house of cards.
