A blatantly promotional interview with the Kurdish PKK leader Ocalan on Newsnight last night.
The Kurds are offering to be the 'boots on the ground' and the BBC are clearly putting the meme out there on behalf of the vested interests in the UK. Couple of sticking points though.. the Kurds want more heavy weapons and ammunition, which shouldn't be a problem eh.. for now... and then there's the fact that the Sunni population of that region would oppose being liberated by the Kurds... more 'insurgent' targets the coalition to blow up then. It's escalating.
