PKK May Declare Ceasefire

Iraqi President Jalal Talabani said Kurdish rebels were set to declare a unilateral ceasefire on Monday, in the face of mounting Turkish threats to strike their bases in northern Iraq.

"The PKK has decided to declare a ceasefire from their side tonight," Talabani told reporters, referring to the separatist Kurdistan Workers' Party, regarded as a terrorist outfit by Turkey and the West.

I think that is a wise decision and I hope they do that. I hope also that it's not too late.

Somebody musta got to the PKK and told 'em to knock off the cheap shit before they fuck everything all the way up. The Iraq Kurds are doing OK for now and a Turkish invasion just might be the monkey wrench in the works that they don't need. None of us need it.
