[QUOTE="D. Hargrove, post: 3279257, member: 41761"] So Turkey has boned us as recently as 2003, we sent Troops into the Country to facilitate the advance of US Forces into Iraq for the invasion. Turkey then decided to not allow US staging or Combat actions to occur from their country. Saw Turkish troops captured, medically examined and returned to their capture location all in a 36 hour period. Turkey is not on the short list of folks that those in uniform in the region rely on or even trust. The Kurds claim Mosul as theirs, the Turks claim Mosul as their capital and Syria is just an excuse to get into Mosul. [B]Either way, the US Forces currently in theater with the Kurds are in a really crappy position.[/B] [/QUOTE]
