The U.S. military in Southern Kurdistan is staying out of the fight between PKK fighters and Turkey. Major General Benjamin Mixon, the top American commander in the region, says it's not the U.S. military's responsibility to act. He said he plans to do "absolutely nothing" to counter the PKK activity. Mixon told Pentagon reporters by videoconference from a base in Southern Kurdistan that he's sent no additional U.S. troops to the area and that he's not tracking hiding places or logistics activities of the PKK, reported AP today.
