The US moving troops through Turkey into northern Iraq, would have put a huge army in-between the Kurds and the Turks. Now the only thing between them are the lightly armored special forces. There are now three separate armies in northern Iraq. Each of those armies may have a different objective.
The coalition wants to disarm Saddam and then depose him but plans to leave Iraq whole.
The 4,000,000 Kurds in northern Iraq say they don't want a separate Kurdish state, but maybe they really do and would join with the 16,000,000 Kurds in Turkey to do it?
The Turks want to insure there will be no Kurdish state, and maybe gain some territory in the process, or at least put down the Kurds?
The questions about the motives of the Kurds and Turks are just questions, but they could have dangerous answers if acted on.
