>>> Turks already got a promise that there will be no separate Kurdish state, and in fact, the Turkish army will enter northern Iraq in the case of an invasion to guarantee just that.<<< 'Tis true. But the action I'm referring to is not the creation of an independent Kurdish state, but rather creation of an opposition coalition jointly comprised of Kurds, Shiites and Sunnis who'll replace the Saddam regime. It's just that the launching site for this opposition government will be in the land of the Kurds, the most protected area of the country away from Saddam's forces. Again, it'll be a multi-Iraqi aligned opposition government. Bush's response to the new government likely will be to provide diplomatic recognition proclaiming the new government as the legitimate one of the Iraqi people. This move creates a sidedoor to move around the UN, regardless of what it thinks or wants, by creating the provocation Bush will need in order to promulgate the war--his response supposedly a defense of the new Iraqi government which obviously will formally request US assistance to remove Saddam.
