Nothing will come out of this. Only talking on their side and nothing changes. PKK continues and will continue to operate freely in Central Government controlled territory. Even if they want, they can do nothing to tackle PKK other than let us do what we need to do. Not only they don't do and can't do nothing, but they integrate PKK branches in the popular militias (Iranian proxies) so they can protect them.

The Sinjar province has a strategic importance for Iran. That's why they flooded the areas from Erbil trough Tal Afar to Sinjar with Shia militias or militias/terrorist organizations that are on their payroll.

They want to prevent us controlling the northern logistic corridor connecting Iraq and Syria. Not only the logistic route is of strategic importance due to the traffic and the border crossings, but also strategic planning of the IRGC points out the area as an alternative and strategic route for possible gas exports that would go to Syrian and Lebanese ports and from there to Europe after the "realignment of the region". Abu Mahdi Al-Muhandis personally watched the developments in the area before he was killed. In order to prevent KDP and Turkiye's influence they are empowering PKK and Shia militias so the can flood the areas of interest with them. They already gained the trust of the locals due to the fight against ISIS. Unfortunately our Turkmen brothers are also a victim to their policies and are actively participating in their plans.

The situation is very serious when it comes to Sinjar. While people think that the major threat is the US when it comes to Sinjar the reality is that the first ones to respond to our counter-terrorism operations would be Iranian militias. The organizations that are bombing US bases around Erbil are the same ones that are holding Sinjar. We are talking about Kata'ib Hezbollah and Asa'ib Al-Haq.

The rats even published a threatening video from Taksim square at the time showing one of their militants. There were also animations, but can't find them as I don't have time right now.

They did rocket attacks against our bases in Iraq in the past. Those were small attacks and didn't result in big damages, but clearly they have the capability to go bigger.

They carried out large-scale ballistic missile attacks on the United States months after the conflict in Gaza began. So it's not that simple. There is no similar escalation.

The same group which posted the video in the link took responsibility for the large ballistic missile attack against the US operated Ain Al-Assad base. The attacks against us were like sending a small message. They did both rocket and drone attacks. The same kind of attacks they do against US positions. If we irritate them enough they may take another approach. The thing is that they have the offensive capabilities while we lack the SM-3s.

This is why we should keep a good eye on the area. We should limit Central Government influence just enough so they don't have full control and KDP can act as enablers for our operations in Yazidi areas. They are acting as enablers of our intelligence work and are doing a good job in the most areas of the north of Iraq. We should also work on infiltrating the pro-Iran circle around the Turkmen and gather intelligence on all IRGC operations in their areas. This is of crucial importance.

So far*. Nothing to suggest that same kind of escalation won't happen between Iran and Turkey in the near future. When they did those attacks on our bases, they were also lobbing small rockets into US bases. Now they are sending Scuds into those American bases. What's to say we're not next? I'm not even touching on none of our bases being equipped to handle such an attack. How many soldiers do we have at Bashiqa at risk or the consulate in Erbil?

I guess we'll wait and see what happens.

These are Iran proxies, Iran should be responsible for this action as much as their proxies.

Iranian-backed group in Iraq, reportedly threatened Turkish forces in Iraq over the weekend. Turkey has numerous outposts and bases in northern Iraq and Ankara often carried out airstrikes against Yazidi minorities.“

Jews are facking smart people. They think they can divide Turkey and Iran or bring both in to one military conflict. Smart move.

Nothing to do with Israel. Those news are coming since 2020 regularly.

It has something to do with Iran's imperialistic approach towards the region and their works on establishing a mega project ranging from the Persian Gulf to the Mediterranean. In order for this project to succeed they should have control over the most important route between Iraq and Syria which is Sinjar. Guess who is on the way. Turkiye and the US. All three sides have different agendas and the region is shaped according to those.

When it comes to the north of Iraq, Turkiye has the upper hand... till ballistic missiles start to rain over our bases. The biggest problem for this project to come true is the US presence. After the US is gone Turkiye is next and believe me YPG-PKK and Peshmerga will look to you as anime girls compared to what kind of militias will take the control over the north of Iraq in case of Iranian domination of the region, and these are not friendly!

Iran is not a friendly country, we are not in the same military alliance as we are with the US in NATO, no defensive pact will prevent them to use their conventional arsenal on us and nobody will help us in case of Iranian aggression. Pro-mullah Regime Iranians are hating us to the bones. Only we can help ourselves. How? By strengthening our conventional and unconventional forces. We should pump militias loyal to us like the world is going to end tomorrow.

While we are in this thread that is mainly concentrated on the fight against PKK terrorism I want to say something important.

We are hitting their leaders like flyes left and right, but somehow we can't get to Cemil Bayik or Murat Karayilan for example. Where are they? I am sure they are not in Tel Aviv or Washington D.C. Qandil have two sides and we have no access to one of the sides. Qandil is the place where IRGC and PKK positions are within meters from eachother. How come IRGC and PKK are living in such a symbiosis in Qandil? The answer is clear.

Who is the leading force of PKK right now? Cemil Bayik. Who is Cemil Bayik?

After Cemil Bayik crossed into Iran in March, 2002. What Turkiye did then?

Turkey’s ambassador to Tehran, Selahattin Alpar, declared:

“We have official information that Cemil Bayik is in Iran. We requested from Iranian authorities to arrest and hand him over to Turkey”

What happened? The Iranians declined.

On the 10th of May, 2008 the Turkish General Staff did a press release saying:

“As a result of the Turkish air strike on the Qandil Mountains, a senior PKK commander, Cemil Bayik, fled into a neighboring country together with a large group of PKK members, engaging in clashes with local security forces”

Cemil Bayik in 2019:

“America wants to bring Turkey, Iraq and Kurds in a coalition against Iran,” Bayik told PKK affiliated news agency ANF NEWS, “the coalition would act against Iran under the monitoring of the US.”

“At this time, the role of PKK is very important, the US wants to eliminate PKK because we are and we will stand against this coalition.”

According to Bayik Americans, for their interests, are designing a new Middle East.

“The US sees PKK a great problem ahead of itself, meantime, Iran is also a problem in front of America,” Bayik said.

He believes that US Sanction on Iran, which was imposed on Tehran on December 5, 2018 and at the same time announcing five million Dollar in bounty for PKK leaders is not just a coincidence, but it is part of the US plan to destroy Iran and PKK.

End of quote.

This is the reason why the Iranian side of the border is quiet. PKK is not moving against the hand that is feeding it (security).

To understand the situation you have to understand that terrorists in Qandil are of two types. Ocalan also talked on this issue. Basically pro-US reformists and pro-Iran traditionalists. The difference between the two is that the reformists prioritize political struggle while the traditionalists prioritize armed struggle. The head of the traditionalists is the Iranian puppet Cemil Bayik.

Why do you think the US wants to rebrand the YPG? Why do you think PKK in Syria is split in two (US and Russian/Iranian/Assad protected)?

The situation is very clear. If we want to look at PKK in the north of Iraq we must look at Iran. If we want to look at PKK (traditionalist) on the west of Euphrates we should look at Iran. If we want to look at the PKK (reformist) on the east of Euphrates in Syria we must look at the US.

The ordinary PKK rat is dumb. He would go wherever the wind blows. Nobody should think that if the US leaves the region PKK will end. On the contrary, while the US is keeping the reformist YPG on its leash they only bark while the ones (HRE,Iraq PKK) under Iranian leash bite. If the US suddenly leaves Syria and we do nothing because of the possibility that Assad deal with YPG this means that the whole PKK structure will be Iranian controlled under traditionalist approach. Mazlum Abdi will either be forced to form a reformist movement and start an armed resistance or surrender to Iran.

All what I wrote above is just the basic. The situation is very serious and even of existential importance I would say. We must act very smart, play very smart with our limited resources and deal with all of the branches of PKK (traditionalists and reformists) accordingly.

Right now there is a power vacuum in the forming which is not favoring us. We should find a way to fill this gap otherwise Iran will take US's place both in Iraq and Syria and this is very big power. We wouldn't be able to do nothing else then to take our controlled areas in the north of Syria and the KRG under our protection within a federative or confederative system. This comes with a very big price to pay. We will be forced to choose either this or an Iranian domination and Iran becoming the undisputed power of the region. A price that may risk the future of the Republic of Turkiye.

If somebody thinks that Turkiye will be able to get its rightful piece of the pie from this, he is wrong. The harsh reality is that we will not be able to stand on our feet for at least 20 more years at my most positive calculations we need militaryand economyso we can supportour projects. We are late at this game and we are paying the price for this. Now we are forced to fight for the right of our existance, the unseparstable unity of our country against a global power like the US and a regional power like Iran. We must contain both under certain conditions so we are not handicapped.

Türkiye needs to play a LOT more dirty. It acts way to clean and righteousness. That's not how you deal with scum. How about trying to destabilize iran the same way they do to Türkiye? How about a turkish version of hezbollah etc...

What do you mean by collapsing? What is the scenario that is going trough your mind? Different problems require different solutions.

Protests, collapse of government allowing pro-iranian groups to take over (less likely) or Iranian ballistic attacks forcing the autonomous region to turn to Iran (more likely) ?

If it wasn't for the domestic political calculus, from what you say it seems possible to tear the reformist branch away from the traditionalist pro-Iranian branch through diplomacy / carrot and stick

Iran really outplayed TR in the middle east

See? The balance is very thin. If Iran collapses the US will take Iran's positions. If the US collapses Iran will take US's position. I am on the opinion that we must push for our own. We should enforce OUR position with nobody suddenly collapsing if possible. The process of decline must be carefully controlled so we don't create a basis for further destabilization which will serve them more.

These are tribal countries with more factors that are separating the people rathr than uniting them. We must find with what we can unite different ethnics, religions, tribes so we can be successful in this. I am not even talking about only one group. We must engage different actors and act from more than one axis in the pursue of our political and military objectives. We are actually doing it with some success, but in order to confront powers like the US and Iran we must be more proactive while we are lame at the moment.
