Jabar Yawar Speech

The Turkish forces crossed into an area near the border with Iran, about 120 kilometers (75 miles) north of the city of Irbil, said Jabar Yawar, a spokesman for Kurdistan’s Peshmerga security forces. Jamal Abdullah, a spokesman for the regional Kurdistan government, said about 300 Turkish troops crossed the border at 3 a.m. (0000GMT). He described the region as a deserted mountainous frontier area. Must have nice women there ;)

Lebanese man held in Germany for bombing attempt realted?? Mr. Demirtas was arrested with false health papers trying to avoid military service according to his party, so not very likely but a very good cover also :) The DTP in Turkey disavows any relation to the PKK in Northern Iraq, Kurdistan.
