Oh, Michael, you mean the attack by Turkey, Iran, and Syria against Kurdistan, as significant segments of those countries are majority Kurdish and their has already been border shelling directed at Kurdish guerrillas.

I limited my coverage to the internal wars and left the Kurdish war and the Anbar war that will involve Saudi Arabia, Syria, and Jordan supporting the member of tribal Sunnis whose territories extend across international borders.

I notice they have put off their “dog and pony” presenting the “evidence” of Iranian “involvement.” Apparently it didn’t pass the gag test – no one would present it without gagging. Word is that Rice and Gates don’t want to be used like Powell was in his presentation before the UN. Gates is a careerist and would want to be employable in Federal service after these people are gone, and I assume that Rice has figured out that not even Pepperdine would hire her if she gave the speech.

The Kurds may be ethnic cleansing in the north of Iraq, but I suspect that will be as nothing to what might happen to them if they go ahead with their plans to (a) annex Kirkuk and (b) declare independence. Turkey has, if memory serves, been moving troops to its southeastern border against just such an eventuality.

and It will undoubtedly be the next strategy to shift the *blame* on the current Democratic controlled congress too!

I am SOOooo sick of these folks and their prevarications and obfuscations – Grrrrr!
