---------- From: Rick Rozoff <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Turkish Ground Forces Go To War [WWW.STOPNATO.ORG.UK] Visit our website: HTTP://WWW.STOPNATO.ORG.UK --------------------------------------------- [From killing Kurds to killing Afghans; they won't notice the difference.] THE TIMES (London) THURSDAY OCTOBER 11 2001 Turkey set to join land operations FROM ANDREW FINKEL IN ISTANBUL TURKS awoke yesterday to discover that their country had gone to war. Ankara?s decision to dispatch a team led by a brigadier-general to the Florida headquarters of the Afghan operation, to co-ordinate Turkish participation in future operations, is the clearest signal that the only Islamic country in Nato is standing firm. Parliament met in a stormy session yesterday to discuss approval for 800 commandos to join allied forces. Until recent years Turkey waged a counter-insurgency war against Kurdish rebels and its special forces are used to conditions similar to those in Afghanistan.
