A bit more complicated.
Not that it matters to him, but Bush has promised Turkey there will not be a separate Kurdish nation evolving out of the Iraq war. If there were, that Kurd nation would press for the Kurds in Turkey to be part of it. And the Turks would invade Kurdish Iraq before allowing that.
"To complicate matters, Turks are also suspicious of the US designs for the Kurds and vice versa. Despite repeated assurances by US officials on the continuation of the Iraq’s territorial integrity, many Turks still remain uneasy about the US military support of the Iraqi Kurds."
Could change easily. We all know what promises mean to Bush.
