Iraqi Turks (also known as Iraqi Turkmen) is an ethnic group in Turkmeneli, Iraq.
The Turkmen of Iraq are not to be confused with the Turkmen of Central Asia who reside primarily in Turkmenistan, Afghanistan and Iran. Iraqi Turkmen form a distinct group within the Oghuz Turk classification, which includes Ottoman Turks, modern Turkish people, Azeris, and the Turkmen of Central Asia.
The Iraqi Turks speak a dialect of Turkish that is heavily influenced by Arabic and Ottoman Turkish. For their written language, they use the standard Turkish language and Latin-based Turkish alphabet.
The term Turkmen for Iraqi Turks seems to have been created during the course of the discussion on the Mosul issue in the third decade of the last century, in order to isolate the Iraqi Turks from Turkey. This was used as a factor against Turkey during negotiations, in order to join this oil rich Ottoman province to the newly founded Iraq by Britain.
Iraqi Turks are the third main ethnic community in Iraq, representing about 13% of the Iraqi people.

Children living in the country of Iraq. These children now have the opportunity to do whatever our fantastic society allows us to do, or better, they have:
- until the new free government becomes as dictatorial as the previous one (if not worse);
- if the fact of having possibly lost their homes, families, friends, limbs doesn't create them particular problems;
- until they aren't killed in one of the daily attacks by the terrorist who are now rampaging uncontrollably in the whole country;
- until a particularly scared/nervous/unexperienced soldier who liberated them shoots them by error.
Who was ever giving a damn about the Iraqi children before the war? The excuse were the feared weapons of mass destruction. Then, after no WMD were found, the excuse became "Hey, we liberated the poor people from the bad guy! (And we sold them to the terrorist)"
