Northern Peace?

The only relatively peaceful part of Iraq, northern Iraq's Kurdish region, has been experiencing skirmishes for some time. Now it looks like it's turning hot, and could turn hotter.

The Turks, perhaps using the House resolution condemning the Armenian genocide, seem to be increasing their military activities against the Kurds. This is not a new story, but rather an escalating story.

Iraq is a mess, and will be for some time.

Someone said the unrest in Iraq would spill over into other parts of the region. Guess it's starting north.
