Lukum of insolence: "Assad supplying arms to Turkish Kurd militants"

"(Reuters) - Turkey's foreign minister accused Syrian President Bashar al-Assad of arming a Kurdish militant group that has fought the Turkish state for decades, potentially exacerbating a conflict which has killed more than 40,000 people.Clashes between the Turkish army and Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) militants have intensified in recent weeks east of the border with Syria in southeast Turkey. Ankara is concerned the PKK is exploiting the chaos in Syria to expand its influence."

How about all the arms that the Turkish foreign minister supplied to the rebels in Syria?

How about the arms Assad senior supplied to PKK, all through 1985-1998, both in Bekaa and in Syria proper? See, we can go on and on...

An eye for an eye makes both Turkey and Syria blind, this is terrible. I don't like what Turkey is doing at all.
