I'm wondering what the hell the PKK are hoping to achieve. Suppose they provoke Turkey into invading Northern Iraq ... This would greatly weaken Kurdish military strength which will be sorely needed if Iraq does descend into all out civil war. It would alienate American support, which they also need. It would provide a pretext for continued occupation of Kurdistan by the four local nations.
Do they really think they can win a fight if a big one erupts? I favour independence for Kurdistan, but I don't see what their strategy is. Any guesses?
