Turkey Before the Gates Of Hell in Kurdistan

Submitted by Numan S Dogan, Oct 29, 2007 17:03

You are wrong Mr.Ibrahim. Turkey will not resort to full invasion of Northern Iraq. It will be strategic targeting of PKK camps and facilities around the Qandil mountains. This is a self defense of a state that has been under attack by the PKK terrorists (Baby Killers!) that has been supported by Western Nations to further divide Middle East so that they can easily exploit their natural resources and use them as they pleased. As for Cyprus, you know that Turkish Army could have taken the whole Island in 1974. They did not. They voluntarily halted their operation and did not go to the south part of the Island. They took the 35% of the land (Northern Cyprus) and secured the rights of Turkish Minority. They did not want to be seen as the occupation force in Cyprus. They will show self restrain dealing with the Northern Iraq. They will go after the bad guys, the baby killers. Do you want to see the pictures of innocent people killed by PKK terroroists (over 30,000 people so far)? Go look at the archives Mr. Ibrahim.
