Turks really took a stand. Not allowing US to stage there on moral grounds huh!

shahani, Now you have your reason I guess
"Turkey has a Moslem majority. I don't understand how anyone expected them to support military action against a Moslem/Arab country?"

Well will the wonders never end.

Well the proud turks apparently had a reason for not allowing US troops but it had nothing to do with their faith.

Apparently they have designs on northern Iraq and the kurds.

Ahhh isn't their moral muslim solidarity great.

They just could not see their muslim brothers being attacked by the US (They wanted to take a little piece for themselves as well.)

Besides I think you are off by 3 zeros or so.

If it were only 17 million that would have been a steal. We spent less than that on the space shuttle toilets.
