2. In this case

I see it more as incompetence in handling the situation rather than our threatening them. We have no teeth -- both Turkey and Iraqi Kurdistan are our allies. If we side with either, all the enemies we've made will move in to make friends with the one we don't side with. A recipe for disaster. So, in a way, the US message is: work it out rather than fight. Just don't know what good it will do.

Thanks for the welcome. :toast:
