So?
Now they are battle hardened and even more determined as I have written. It is going to be very tough to eliminate them. Good Luck. and try not to live in Denial.
Exactly, and this more reaon to fight them now.
You're said too, PKK has today more oppourtunity than ever to create their country, so we must fight them.
Peace with PKK in 2011 was possible because Turkey for the first time in his history has a good relationship with his neighbours Syria, Iran, and even Iraki Kurd, and so PKK with no choice but accept the peace.
But now, PKK has a good reputation in the west, thank to Isis they have recruted many Kurds in the region and Turkey has lost his new friends, and worst PKK has almost create a country in Syria.
If Turkey let them be, then PKK will be more powerfull than ever, and then I don't trust PKK to keeps their words and don't attack Turkey after Isis is defeated.
Hell, they didn't even wait Isis defeat to attack Turkey! Because don't forget, Turkey has bombed them only
after they have killed 2 cops ending the peace process.
I can "trust" a weak PKK to make peace and forget their dream to create a country in Turkey's lands, but this PKK ? Only an idiot will go with this peace.
This situation is an opporunity to PKK, but to Turkey too. Yes PKK is more powertull but Turkey is the same, and for the first time PKK is not completly save in Syria and Irak thank to Isis.
For example the PKK in Syria is not protected against jet bombing like the PKK of Irak hiding thank to mont Kandil.
They have only one protection, the political one, because the west dosn't want Turkey to bomb them, but if they dare to attack Turkey then they will go to hell.
