"Scores killed as Turks, Kurds renew attacks" by Los Angeles Times | October 5, 2008
ISTANBUL - Fierce new fighting flared yesterday between Turkish troops and Kurdish rebels after months of relative calm. Fifteen soldiers and at least 23 separatists were killed.
Relative to what? Pffft!
Turkey's military called in helicopters, fighter planes, and heavy artillery after the Kurdish separatists struck an army outpost in southeastern Turkey early Friday, apparently overwhelming the defenders. The fighting near the border with Iraq, which also wounded 20 soldiers, represented Turkey's largest loss of troops this year in a single attack.
The fighting was considered likely to spur Turkish military strikes at rebel hide-outs across the border in northern Iraq. Within hours of the rebel attack, the Turkish military was aiming artillery strikes across the frontier.
Because Turkey's military is far better-equipped and stronger than the fighters from the Kurdistan Workers Party, or PKK, the rebels' ability to inflict a large number of deaths in a fortified army position constitutes a significant propaganda victory for the separatists, and a demoralizing blow for Turkey.
I'm so sick of the shitty AmeriKan MSM I can hardly stand them!
I don't know if I believe the lying, enemy-creating MSM or not on that one.
Ever notice that the Israeli-Trained Death Squads, the Israeli presence in Kurdisatn, and terrorist P.J.A.K. never get a mention in the AmerIkan Zio-media, readers?
Yup, the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth -- to be found NOWHERE in the AMERIKAN MSM!!!!
