>>>The U.S. military is quietly preparing to withdraw its forces from Turkey. Government sources said the military and Defense Department have concluded that Turkey is no longer a reliable military ally. The sources said that by 2008 the United States would have no more than a token military presence in Turkey.<<< If the above is true, I wonder if this could mean that the US neocon GOPwingers are now planning on a separate nation for the Kurds, this with a profit scheme for the Kirkurk oil fields and ceding the rest of Iraq to whatever it becomes. After all, Halliburton's subsidiary's probably got those northern military bases nearly built, if not built.
