COMPLETE DESTABILIZATION THREATENS THE REGION IN CASE TURKEY INVADES NORTHERN IRAQ

Iraqi Kurdistan is almost the only province of the country the
Americans do not have to worry for.
Turkey's probable invasion of Northern Iraq threatens the country
with serious economic crisis and with chaos in the already troublesome
region. In case of Turkish Army's invasion of Iraq the US will simply
lose control over the situation, something which America will not
let happen. The latest announcement made by the Chief of the Turkish
General Staff Yashar Buyukanit was an obvious hint at the possibility
of launching a military operation at the border of the Iraqi Kurdistan.
/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "It is necessary for the Turkish Army to implement
military intervention at the bordering regions in the Northern part
of Iraq, to break down the oppositions sheltering Kurdish militants
there. If I am asked, whether or not such operation is needed to carry
out, I will say it is," said the General. The newspaper Cumhurriyet is
certain that for its own security Turkey needs to invade Northern Iraq.
The official Ankara's motivation; that is the fight against terrorists
from the Kurdish Worker's Party, which Turkey has been waging since
1984, looks rather convincing. Yet to this day the annihilation
of the Kurdish people has been realized on Turkish territory
mainly. Presently, struggle against the founders of "The Great
Kurdistan" got beyond the bounds of the country.
The US tries its best to prevent Turkey's invasion on Northern Iraq
controlled by the Kurds. The representatives of Bush Administration
has lately been assuring Turkey, that American troops will put more
pressure on the militants of the Kurdish Worker's Party, sheltering
on Kandil mountains at the borders of Iraq, Iran and Turkey.
The US agrees upon the plan on holding a referendum in Kirkuk,
province in Northern Iraq. Turkey suspects, that Iraqi Kurds aim at
taking control over Kirkuk, as a prelude to the establishment of the
Independent Kurdistan. General Joseph Ralston, U.S. special envoy for
countering the Kurdish problem, considers that the possibility of the
Turkish military operation is growing. "We have come to a critical
point, where the pressure of the Kurdish Worker's Party's continuing
attacks brought to a gigantic public pressure on the Turkish government
with the request of launching the military operation. When snow melts
on the mountains, we will see whether or not the Party will recommence
attacks and what the Turkish government's reaction will be. I hope,
that Turkey will remain on our side," the Guardian writes.
Iraqi Kurdistan is almost the only province in the country the
Americans do not have to worry for - there is no opposition getting
on the way of the multinational army, no bloody clashes between Sunnis
and Shiites.
However it should not be forgotten, that the "rebirth" of the mythical
"Great Kurdistan", including parts of Iraq, Turkey, Iran, Syria and
even a small region in Armenia, may start right from this point. It is
not surprising, that "a small region in Armenia" is always included
in the plans of the establishment of any "Great" state. Kurds are
not alone in their intentions; Azerbaijan, Turkey and Georgia make
claims on the Armenian territories too. In its "condemnations" of
the possible invasion of the Turkish army into Northern Iraq most
likely Armenia is guided by one main principle; my enemy's enemy is
my ally, however it should not be forgotten that the Turks committed
the Armenian Genocide at the hands of the very Kurds.
