In private, though, administration officials were fuming, with one senior official calling the Turkish efforts to hold out for more aid — and perhaps access to oil from the Kirkuk region of Iraq — as "extortion in the name of alliance." Another said that despite a stream of aid from the United States, "the Turks seem to think that we'll keep the bazaar open all night."
