Turkey to continue Iraq operation to uproot PKK: Erdogan
[PRESSTV] President Sultan Recep Tayyip Erdogan the First
... Turkey's version of Mohammed Morsi but they voted him back in so they deserve him. It's a sin, a shame, and a felony to insult the president of Turkey...

’s determination to eradicate the threat of "terror", saying Ankara will continue its military operation in northern Iraq until the elimination of the outlawed Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK).

"We won't stop until we completely wipe off terror from our borders. The operations will continue until the PKK terror group is removed from Qandil and if needed from Sinjar," Erdogan said, while addressing members of his ruling Justice and Development Party (AK Party) in parliament on Saturday.

This as Ottoman Turkish military said on the same day that its warplanes had killed at least eight PKK Death Eaters in northern Iraq as well as Turkey’s restive southeastern Mardin province on Friday and Saturday.

The Ottoman Turkish General Staff wrote on its official Twitter account that fighter jets had conducted Arclight airstrikes in northern Iraq's Sinat-Haftanin regions and in the Omerli district of Mardin province, which is near the Syrian and Iraqi border.

In recent months, Ankara has stepped up air raids against suspected PKK positions in northern Iraq, particularly its stronghold in the Qandil Mountains. The Ottoman Turkish government has said it might launch a ground offensive into the rugged area, where top PKK members are believed to be stationed.

On June 8, Ottoman Turkish Prime Minister Binali Yildirim said troops had been "deployed in a 300-kilometer area, in 30 kilometers deep in northern Iraq" for a declared goal of eliminating PKK murderous Moslems. His comments came just a day after Erdogan said Ankara might strike the Iraqi city of Qandil "at any moment one evening."
