NO! Thank you! Have you picked a party or a political theory yet. The political sciences section here, along with political parties and such may help. we are a pretty open group and if you have any questions any of us would be glad to help you out. Feel free to ask anything that you would like. Or you could PM the member if you would like to keep it private. I have several blogs that cover politics and such, they could be of help also. Good Luck.

The shelling will probably continue until the final vote on the genocide thing. And then they will act.


Turkish troops Sunday sent shells crashing across the Iraqi border into several villages in the autonomous Kurdish region, officials said, as a Kurdish fighter vowed that Turkey would find itself fighting a "Vietnam war" if strikes continued. Residents of a village near the northern Iraq border town of Zakhu fled after shells slammed into their homes and farms during a day-long bombardment that caused major damage but no casualties, Kurdistan regional government spokesman Jamal Abdullah told AFP.

"From this morning until early evening there was a Turkish attack on villagers near Zakhu," he said. "There were no casualties but lots of damage and many families fled to safer areas."

Well, as long as Iraq and the U.S. drag their heels on doing something about it, Turkey will continue to increase their attacks.

Which begs the question: How long before the Iraq war spills over the borders into a regional war in spite of the spin that says such would only happen if we leave Iraq? It seems to me that a regional war is almost inevitable, and simply a matter of time.

The inevitability of a regional conflict is high, but was the US the cause? IMO, we were not the cause just the catalyst. The US is providing ideological ammo. It may be too late to reverse the coming storm, but at least we should get out of the way.
