In spite of all the calls of George Bush, the Turkish army started a wide-ranging military operation against the Kurdish militants in the Northern border with Iraq. The army almost carries military operation in the "triangle" of the provinces of Shirnak, Khakyarri, and Siirt. On October 17 the Turkish Parliament voted for granting the government the power of holding military operations in the Northern Iraq with a one-year-deadline. The truth is though, that the Prime Minister Recep Erdoghan said, that the decision of the Parliament doesn't mean that the operations will at once be started, however a recurrent war with the Kurds has been unleashed.
