you fought a war of attrition , we a fought a war of classique , in western media our war is compared to the first world war , while no one knows about your war ,
back in the 90s , PKK was just an excuse for turkey to stalk iraq , and finish the unfinished job iran didn't manage to finish
1st of all, it is clear that you have seen words of " comparise to WWI " and didnt read further in the "wikipedia",even didnt check source of it. Its compared to WWI in terms of tactics, trench warfare and others so it doesnt mean " wow we had a glorious and huge war like WWI" ,but means, "we only could achieve to fight in WWI style ,not better".
But, Turkey's fight against PKK is fight against geurilla warfare, the tactic which even US couldnt hold against in Vietnam. You just think world doesnt care about PKK? Had better we leave you in your own dreams then.
It wasnt a reason to stalk for us,but a result of some occasions. You dont know how is terrain on border, and inland of border @
Sinan knows better than me,so it becomes hard to fight,thus need to stalk it while in iraq ,and even step through iraq for operation. Last years iraq even threaten turkey for recon flights and operationg " with the support gained from iran ",do you know what turkey done ? Even didnt hear it .
Additionally, having a war in the past with iraq doesnt give you a right to interfere iraq's issue. if it was so, we would be seeing lots of countries interfering each other's issue. While turkey's case is different,there is a threat in iraq which is against us,thus giving us right to " stalk ". By talking about iran's right to interfere, you are just talking the same irritating way US and Russia do.
Additionally for people claims that iran has right to strike Nato radar base in turkey in the case of intercepting ICBM missile going to israel. When all NATO members approve it,and comes in one decision ,then NATO assets can be deployed to protect one Non-NATO country. i never think they wouldnt dare for one reason, Turkey.
About this spying,we used to know it since long time, is it really suprising to hear that US spying us? Or UK . I really didnt get suprised more than i did for Germany's.
The result is iran and turkey can be good aliies to change region,but iran acts in fussy way , an example; in the times our PM visitied iran , your ahmedinejad got him waiting one day,while meeting scheduled already. Also iran didnt provide any further security ,it was our SF arrived to protect him ,with an alleged assasination trial. But when your new president visited our president, its such like he is in iran,safe, walking,and respected .Iran doesnt respect anybody, thinks that they are super nation of world,and whenever we try to establish good relations, it turns up into backstabbing of iran.
