This was to be expected. With Turkey attacking over 200 targets inside Kurdish Iraq over the past week, it was just a matter of time that the PKK (Kurdish rebels) would start the retaliation. I've said from the start that this was not going to be pretty, in that Turkey has been building up for this opportunity for a long time. And with the U.S. and Iraqi's basically turning their heads to the Turkish attacks, the PKK will see attacks inside of Turkey as its only hope.
At some point in time, the Kurdish leaders in Iraq are going to put their foot down and believe me, none of us wants to see Kurdish Iraqi militias going up against Turkish troops.
The news on this bombing is lean but here's a short blurb.
