=== The Iraqi War ===
Due to the stalemate in the [[First Iraqi War|Iraqi War]] of 1952, Tayfur Sökmen, a syrian official, devised a plan to attack [[Iraq]] from the West through their 360km border with them. This plan was proven to be extremely effective and participated greatly in the Turkish victory, establishing the [[Protectorate of Mosul and Kerkuk]]. Unfortunately, Tayfur Sökmen was assasinated shortly after by the NASIL.
