Challenge: Iranian-Turkish war

POD 1990, have a regional conflict involving Turkey and Iran. Bonus points if the US gets involved. Double Bonus if regime change is somehow effected.

Probably something involving Azerbaijan. Mayhaps if the Nagorno-Karabakh War metasticizes to involve Turkey, Iran, and (most likely) Russia.

I don't know, I think if Russia decides to become involved then that basically kills any chance of Iran or Turkey coming in to actual hostilities over this issue.
 
How about Iran protecting the rights of Kurds or supporting them?? :cool:

That doesn't really make sense either-both Iran and Turkey have large Kurdish populations and stand to loose territory if a Kurdish state forms. Mutual opposition to Kurdish separatism is one of the factors promoting cooperation between Iran and Turkey.
 
Let me rewrite again.
What if any of this countries support neighbours separatism, because wanting to annex (or whatever) some parts? Kurds are of the same origins as Iranians, that is why I came to this idea (uniting them under Iran).
:rolleyes:

Fight over the Azerbaycan province in Iran... Iran supressing the Turks in Iran in the Azerbaycan province?

That could be a start..
