Hopefully, this is only the start and hope the army ends this problem once and for all!!!

What do you want? Second war in Iraq with your neighbors (maaelasaf)

we wanna kill all terrorists who are north of Iraq supported by european and other western countries...This war is not against Iraq's population..it is against terrorism...it is revenge of innocent people who were killed by terrorist attacks..

i just saw the news on tv and they havent got into iraq so there has been no Turkish incursion into iraq.

Anyway , My friend war is war... and means more than killing a group of terrorists... because who is looking for terrorizing has no definite place... America still destroying Iraq and saying it is a war against terrorism!!!!
I hope we can look at this issue much reasonablly and all the people of this area ( the always boiling Volcano: Middle East )can live in peace and love.

ANKARA, Turkey (AP) -- Several thousand Turkish troops crossed into northern Iraq early Wednesday to chase Kurdish guerrillas who operate from bases there, Turkish security officials said.

Two senior security officials, speaking on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak to the media, said the raid was limited in scope and that it did not constitute the kind of large incursion that Turkish leaders have been discussing in recent weeks.

"It is not a major offensive and the number of troops is not in the tens of thousands," one of the officials told The Associated Press by telephone. The official is based in southeast Turkey, where the military has been battling separatist Kurdish rebels since they took up arms in 1984.

The officials did not say where the Turkish force was operating in northern Iraq, nor did he say how long they would be there. Both officials are involved in anti-rebel operations, though they did not disclose whether they participated in the planning of the operation on Wednesday.

OOOOh , can you believe all what said by international media??? from my personal expirence when I was woking as a translator with Rueters during USA war against Iraq in 2003 I can tell you those Agencies are making up all the news all arround the world, they are trading on the blood of people. No matter for them if thousands of civil people killed or not. The most important is to make War a Devine Trip but no way... Wars always a dirty game.

ANKARA (Reuters) - Turkey's Foreign Ministry and military General Staff on Wednesday denied a Web site report that 50,000 Turkish troops had crossed into northern Iraq to crush Kurdish rebels hiding there.

"This report is not true," a Foreign Ministry source told Reuters.

A General Staff official described the report as "disinformation".

The report, carried on the DEBKAfile Web site, sparked jitters among foreign investors who fear Turkish military action in northern Iraq could harm Turkey's booming economy and relations with the United States.

nobody does nothing...no worries
