ANKARA, Turkey — Turkish jets have struck suspected Kurdish rebel targets in two separate cross-border raids in northern Iraq, a Turkish news agency reported Monday, prompting Iraq to vow to take "diplomatic" steps against Ankara for violating its sovereignty.

Turkey has frequently struck targets of the autonomy-seeking Kurdistan Workers' Party, or PKK, in northern Iraq. But with relations between Turkey and Iraq deteriorating, Baghdad recently warned Turkey against military operations on its territory.

Ties between Ankara and Baghdad have reached a low over a Turkish decision to shelter Iraq's Sunni vice president, even after a Baghdad court sentenced him to death for running death squads. Turkey also started importing crude oil from northern Iraq under a deal with the Iraqi Kurdish administration that has angered Baghdad.

So who is our ally, Turkey or the US installed government in Iraq?

Interesting that they leave autonomous Kurdistan in Northern Iraq out of the story entirely.

The MSM is so bad that you can't even tell the players with a program.
