In the future are we going to be coordinating the attacks that the Jews make on the PLO etc etc..

I know I know this is serious sh** and I shouldn't make light of it, but I just couldn't resist. I mean it does appear we have our nose in everyone elses business. Why not play policeman there too..<--retorical question. no answer needed, but I'm sure i'll get a good bit of flack

I have read many times in these discussions that our forces should go into Pakestan to attack the Taliban and Al Qaeda in their uncontrolled regions. Well, now the shoe is on the other foot. Why aren't you cheering for Turkey because they are killing terrorists?

yea you go turkey way to oppress a population.... kill off all them kurds....welcome to genocide time biys.... and the libs are cheering....

What "libs" might those be?

Outlaws, has it ever occurred to you that if the PKK didn't do what they are, there might well be a different situation? But, lets not look at what they do eh?

Not saying I am very pleased about it, but I do see where Turkey is coming from.

if it wasnt the pkk it would be something else just another excuse for turky to continue their extermination of the kurds//...

The Seljuks v Mamluks, Fatimids v Abbassids, 12ers v 7ers,, jeez these guys need to get a hobby.. er.. a different hobby

Extermination ? Demographically speaking, the Kurds are one of the fastest-growing minorities in Turkey.

Don't twist my words. My point was that your claim that Kurds were being "exterminated" is baseless.

not if you read the history between the two.... the turks have been on the kurds for a very long time even before turky was called turky...

And how does that make the bombing of PKK positions "genocide" ?

And it's spelled Turkey, not Turky.

just watch and see.....

have we all forgotten who the ppk is?
It is a russian funded troublemaking group trying to get:
1. oil for russia
2. pipeline access for russia
3. destroy turkey as a WESTERN ORIENTED country & ally!
Keep focussed, fellows

Maybe there's a Minderbender moment going on!

The US knows where the PKK are, but doesn't like the Turks bombing them .... soooo. Get the USAF to do the job! Yeah that's the ticket! The USN from the Gulf, can launch cruise missile strikes on their mountain hideouts.

Then just warn the Kurds so they're 'out' when the presents arrive. A Win-Win solution!

but still is that a reason to kill off a whole race of people??? hell the turks are killing more civilians then they are pkk members...
