Gates warns Turkey not to invade Iraq

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070603/ap_on_go_ca_st_pe/gates

"We hope there would not be a unilateral military action across the border into Iraq," Gates told a news conference after meetings here with Asian government officials. Turkey and Iraq were not represented.

Gates said he sympathized with the Turks' concern about cross-border raids by Kurdish rebels.

"The Turks have a genuine concern with Kurdish terrorism that takes place on Turkish soil," he said. "So one can understand their frustration and unhappiness over this. Several hundred Turks lose their lives each year, and we have been working with the Turks to try to help them get control of this problem on Turkish soil."


So in other words...
Do as we say..and not as we do..
No wonder Chimpy had made this country a laughing stoch with no credibility.
