Turkish military: Over 150 Kurdish rebels killed in Iraq during past week
2008-05-04
An air raid in northern Iraq earlier this week killed more than 150 Kurdish rebels, reported the Turkish military Saturday. The military said it successfully hit all its targets in a three-hour air operation on Mount Qandil. The raid ended early Friday. The military had said earlier its warplanes bombed the Kurdish rebel group PKK deep inside Iraq but had not given casualty figures. The leadership of the Kurdish rebel group is believed to be hiding in the Qandil region - about 100 kilometers (60 miles) from the Turkish border.

#2  I agree with TP2099: If you can't settle for half a loaf now, with the possiblity of getting more later, then you deserve everything you're getting.

#1  Keep the pressure on the PKK terrorists, and the Iraqi Kurds will emerge as a state with good relations with the Turks. The sub groups within ethnic groups have been the bad apples in a lot of barrels for a very long time. keep whackin em.
