Blowing it

March 28th, 2003 · No Comments

The Washington Post today has a damning article on the Bush administration’s failed attempts to deploy troops in Turkey. It is pretty amazing to read that the as the US was trying to bully the Turks into accepting our troops, the Turkish prime minister was under the impression that he could leverage Turkey’s strategic position to stop the war. You can’t get much further apart than that.
