NOW ISN’T THIS INTERESTING: A Turkish special forces team caught by U.S. troops in Kurdistan.

The Turkish Special Forces team put up no resistance though a mean arsenal was discovered in their cars, including a variety of AK-47s, M4s, grenades, body armor and night vision goggles. “They did not come here with a pure heart,” says U.S. brigade commander Col. Bill Mayville. “Their objective is to create an environment that can be used by Turkey to send a large peacekeeping force into Kirkuk.”

Is it just me, or does it seem like nobody in the region actually wants to see a free, prosperous Iraq?
