Iraq to Turkey: Don't send troops

It looked like Bush finally had some good news, Turkey voted to send troops to Iraq. But the appointed Iraqi council announced we don't want Turkish troops.

Washington agreed to lend Turkey $8.5 billion (U.S.) to support its economy, but has made clear that the loan hinges on Turkey's "co-operation in Iraq."

Today's vote is likely to boost the government's credibility as it negotiates with Washington. A majority of Turks oppose sending troops and the government is expected to act cautiously before sending any soldiers.
