Turkey already has a substantial edge. with F16 fighter Jets. attack helicopters. and antiarmore missiles. In addition Turkey has imported more than 1.000 tanks from the United States alone in the past 5 years. The Government of Turkey is conducting a war against the Kurds within Turkey and has made incursions into Kurdish areas of Iraq. resulting in thousands of civilian casualties and millions of refugees. This cruel war is one part of an overall effort to essentially negate the Kurdish people as a distinct entity within Turkey. Many people are concerned that these missiles could be used as part of this military campaign. resulting in terrible civilian casualties.
