DIYARBAKIR, Turkey Dec. 17 —

Turkey has plans to send tens of thousands of soldiers into northern Iraq if the United States attacks through the north, senior intelligence and military sources said Tuesday.

The Turkish mission would be aimed at preventing a Kurdish state and stopping a possible flood of refugees, the sources said, speaking on condition of anonymity.

Some 4,000 Turkish troops, including engineers, have already been sent to the rugged, mountainous border region so that Turkish troops could quickly be rushed into northern Iraq if there is a conflict, said the sources, who have been part of the Turkish planning.


What do you think Bush will do when Turkey tries to annex the Kurds of N. Iraq? And, of course, then there is the bigger picture of what to do about Kurdistan? If we war with Iraq, we'll have a lot of nation building to do.
