there's basically only one road from jordan to iraq, it's very long, through the desert, and you don't really get anywhere that matters any faster than you would coming up from kuwait and saudi. the key issue with turkey is getting quickly to those northern oil fields around mosul - long way from the south. only other places you could come in are Syria and Iran. not too likely. my suspicion is that if the war actually starts turkey will let us in...that will delay things by a few weeks of course...
