"Turkey has massed up to 100,000 troops, backed by warplanes and tanks, on the border between the two countries for a possible offensive against an estimated 3,000 Iraq-based rebels from the outlawed Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK)."
"More than 30,000 people have been killed in the PKK's separatist campaign in mainly Kurdish southeast Turkey since 1984."

The events that are unfolding, are certainly a huge learning curve for me. I am also not well informed enough (yet:-)) to duscuss this issue. I've only got questions?
Being as we have sold arms to Turkey, is their any way that Turkey is working in tandem w/ US covertly? Excuse my ignorance, I told you I was not that informed. But it appears that the events are playing out a few Countries agenda's. Could this action be so Turkey can gain new territory? Or could it be related to Turkey being chosen in order to get Iran involved or Syria.
If my questions are stupid, I admit I'm not as well versed in this part of the warring.There are so many issues coming to a head daily.
It just seems that war is spreading faster than the CA fires at this point. What is everyone's agenda?
The article stated that actions could destabalize. I thought the entire region has been destabalized already by war since the US occupied Iraq. But then again, I suppose everything is relative.
