The Dallas Morning News berated the Bush administrations tacit approval of Turkey's defending themselves against terrorist. The Kurdish terrorist operating out of camps in northern Iraq, committed acts of terrorism in Turkey. Turkish troops amassed on the Turkey Iraqi border in readiness to cross the border to level terrorist camps. The Bush administration urged Turkey not to invade via ground forces into Iraq. In an attempt to allow a release value, Turkey then bombed the terrorist from the air. The Dallas Morning News in their support of terrorist found fault with this. The people of Turkey as the people of the United States have every right to protect themselves from terrorist. The first and foremost responsibility of any national government is to protect its citizens from enemies both foreign and domestic. This responsibility needs to be taken seriously of the government wishes to maintain the consent of the governed. Remember in a democracy, governments derive their powers from the people.
