What is ZiiTrend?
Will Turkey deploy military operation in Iraq in 2007?
Arthur ( Score Rank: #26 based on predictions in the last 30 days ) Arthur  |  was scored on 04-Jan-2008 (332 days ago)
Thousands of Turkish soldiers are massed at the border with Kurdish-controlled Northern Iraq, possibly preparing to make good on Ankara's threat to cross the border and deal with the radical Kurdish militants of the Kurdish Workers Party, or PKK, which has waged a decades-long separatist insurgency inside Turkey. If Turkish soldiers cross the border to go after radical Kurdish militants. Iran could also make a military move. Will it happen?

    Turkish troops crossed into northern Iraq in pursuit of Kurdish rebels today, according to the chief of staff for the president of the Kurdish regional government. Tensions have been high along the Iraqi-Turkish border. Turkey launched warplanes and long-range missiles against Kurdish rebel positions in Iraq two days earlier.

    I agree that they are pretty prepared for war. It can happen any time. No point to wait until 2008.

    Turkey has decided the operation long time ago, hasn't it? It just need to figure out a good time.

    i don't think Turkey would have the guts to do so. it lacks of international support in this war although it can bargain with US in the local issues.

    I am living in a war free zone. And it is too easy for me to forget what it's like to be in war.
