<< nationalism (given the secessionist inclinations of the Kurds within its borders), considers itself the guardian of its ethnic brethren inside Iraq. The government in Ankara recently informed Washington that it will do whatever it takes to protect Turkmen interests-- including invading Kurdish areas of northern Iraq. "This is a nonstarter, a red line for us," a senior Turkish official told me. During a recent visit to Ankara, Deputy Defense Secretary Paul Wolfowitz was told by Turkey's military brass that if Kirkuk is promised to the Kurds, they won't back an American attack on Iraq. >> I've been waiting for this shoe to drop. It's too bad the Bush/Cheney administration do not talk with anyone from the State Department. Obviously neither one paid the slightest attention to world affairs prior to the last election/selection (however you want to speak of it). It's like a replay of dumb and dumber.
