Yalcin Doğan:Mines exploding while money vanishes
"Get rid of this police station, this is Iraqi land." The person giving this order is not an Iraqi. It is an American wearing the outfit of a Kurdish peshmerha fighter. And the place he is giving this order is on the border between Turkey and Iraq. However, this police station is not in fact on Iraqi land. It is on Turkish land. And on top of this, it is one of the few police stations working to prevent the flow of PKK from northern Iraq into Turkey.
What is the goal of the Americans here? Why are they traveling around in peshmerga outfits? And what is the power that is allowing the PKK to stay in the Kandil Mountains? Is there any connection between these things and the orders given to "get rid of the police station" on the Iraq-Turkey border?
Prior to the incidents in Semdinli which gained so much attention, there were a chain of interesting events in the Southeast of Turkey. The question of "what happened there between 1999-2005 that we have returned to these days?" is often being asked now.
