Whatever the accuracy of this particular article, there is no doubt that the Turks have been carrying out military operations against the PKK in northern Iraq, sometimes in cahoots with the Iranians. If you think it’s fine for the Turks to invade, do you also think it’s fine for the Iranians to do it, as they have publicly threatened?

And to broaden the context a little, if it’s fine for the Turks and Iranians to cross the Iraqi border, why shouldn’t we be doing the same against the Syrians and Iranians? That’s where this all leads, doesn’t it?
