Boy Turkey is sure taking some hits. Here is the latest, Al Qaeda blast kills Britons. Why is Al Qaeda attacking Turkey? If this is Al Qaeda, as many are quick to point out, then why are they attacking Turkey? My little pin head has a theory, If it is Al Qaeda. It takes some setup. We have been hearing from this administration for a long time about this, Iraq urges tighter border control:

The United States has said it believes the people behind recent attacks in Iraq have come in from neighboring countries.

Last month, President George W Bush warned Syria and Iran to do more to prevent terrorists crossing into Iraq, saying he expected them to "enforce borders".

Then yesterday this article was written, Few Signs of Infiltration by Foreign Fighters in Iraq:

During a period in which border patrols have been intensified and new technology is being used, that number suggests only modest foreign incursions into Iraq, in contrast to estimates by the Bush administration.

So once again what is really happening in Iraq is not what the administration wants us to believe. Which leads to the question: Why does the Bush administration want us to believe that people from other countries (Al Qaeda) are coming into Iraq and killing our soldiers? It feeds the war without end, PNAC plan. It leaves options open on Syria, Iran and even Saudi Arabia. If we blame the Turkey attacks on Al Qaeda, especially Al Qaeda from Iraq, this would seem to be enticing Turkey to ally itself even more with the US. It could also be fuelling Turkish rage against Iraq. If it is Al Qaeda then they seem to be using the Bush lies against them and trying to get Turkey into Iraq to blow the whole situation up. If Turkey comes in it's civil war!
