Default Pots, Kettles possibly black, ect...

Turkish parliment votes to permit it's Army to send troops to Iraq.

George Bush says "Would not be in Turkeys interest"

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/7049348.stm

Regardless of whether Turkey should or should not invade Iraq.....

Is anyone else round here reminded about "People who live in glass houses, shouldn't throw stones"?


edit: insert link.

First off key democrats are urging against this genocide symbolic vote so hopefully the majority will see some sense. This is a major key I think as far as Turkeys military option goes. Being used as a kind of blackmail but acceptable and it's an in your face to do something about the Kurds but I don't know what we can do about it short of patroling he border ourselves an we don't have the manpower for it and what would we do? Shoot Kurds? This isn't saying what Turkey commited wasn't genocide, just the wrong time to voice on it.
Yes, glass and stones might break some bones.

2 nations separated by a common language.

"People who live in glass houses, shouldn't throw stones"

It's an British expresion, a comment on hypocrisy.

George Bush is the one in the glass house.

I find in strange he feels he is in a position to tell other countrys not to invade Iraq.

Yes I know the saying. I just added that some bones might get broken in this. My hypocracy bit is we're telling Turkey they can't go after terrorists. I just wouldn't want to be in the presidents shoes. He's getting a##hole deep in alligators. Its hard to match the word logic with middle east.
