TURKEY BOMBS IRAQ - AGAIN, AND AGAIN THERE'S NO OUTCRY OR CONDEMNATION

THE STRAITS TIMES:
TURKISH troops and Kurdish militants clashed in southeast Turkey on Saturday in an escalation of violence which killed 11 soldiers and 12 rebels.

The battle at Semdinli in Hakkari province, near the border with Iraq, re-kindled the conflict in the region and prompted the armed forces to hit Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) targets inside northern Iraq.

The PKK militants touched off the fighting with an attack on an army border unit. Nine soldiers were killed and 14 wounded in the attack, the General Staff said on its website. Two other soldiers were killed by a land mine.

'Reinforcements were sent to the region and throughout the night support was provided to the conflict zone by attack helicopters and artillery. Separately, the Air Force struck targets identified in the northern region of Iraq,' it said.

The general staff gave the PKK death toll as 12. PKK fighters were not available to comment.

Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan said: 'Our fight will continue until the terrorist organisation has been annihilated.'
IF BIBI SAID THIS ABOUT THE TERRORISTS TRYING TO TOPPLE ISRAEL, THEN TURKEY AND THE LEFT WOULD BE PROTESTING.

BUT THE LEFT IS SILENT WHEN TURKEY DOES IT.

IRISH INDEPENDENT:

Turkish warplanes launched air raids at suspected Kurdish rebel positions in northern Iraq yesterday after a rebel attack on a military outpost in Turkey touched off clashes in which nine soldiers and 12 rebel fighters died, Turkey's military and reports have said.

Two other soldiers were also reported killed in a land mine explosion while chasing the rebels, raising the overall death toll in yesterday's violence to 23.

Special forces were immediately sent to reinforce the border area where the clashes occurred. At least 14 other soldiers were wounded in the fighting.

Kurdish rebels have dramatically stepped up attacks in Turkey in recent months, threatening a government attempt to end one of the world's longest guerrilla wars.

MSNBC:

Turkey's state-run news agency says Kurdish rebels have killed one Turkish soldier in an attack on a military outpost in eastern Turkey. The attack has raised the number of Turkish soldiers killed by the rebels to 12 in two days.

WHY ARE ISRAELIS ATTACKED FOR DOING WHAT TURKEY IS ALSO DOING?

BY DEFINITION: IT'S ANTISEMITISM.
