Turkey ignores Iraq’s rejection and joins war
[Iran Press TV] ...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire.... has confirmed its involvement in the battle for djinn-infested Mosul ... the home of a particularly ferocious and hairy djinn... despite Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi's opposition to such measures. On Sunday, Turkish Prime Minister Binali Yildrim announced that Turkish troops had joined the military offensive by the request of Kurdish Peshmerga forces, who were engaged with ISIS Death Eaters in the town of Bashiqa, located to the east of Mosul. "The Peshmerga have mobilized to cleanse the Bashiqa region from ISIS. They asked for help from our soldiers at the Bashiqa base. So we are helping the tanks with our artillery and howitzers there," he said. On Saturday, Abadi reiterated his stance on the involvement of Turkish forces in the battle for Mosul, stressing that Iraqi forces will accomplish the task themselves. Posted by: Fred 2016-10-24 |
