Where did that come from?

Not disagreeing because a_turk posted something about Turkey troops going in and taking over a sizable airbase in Norther Iraq.

Found this:

"At 11:15 p.m. local time yesterday evil American and British warplanes violated our airspace coming from Saudi Arabia and carried out 34 sorties," an Iraqi military spokesman said in a statement on the official Iraqi News Agency (INA).

From here:

Iraq says five killed, 17 hurt in Western attack

I think there must be another one that said 35! will look some more!

Here it is:

BAGHDAD (Reuters) - U.S. and British jets bombed targets in southern Iraq on Sunday, killing eight people and wounding nine others, an Iraqi military spokesman said.

Britain said U.S. or British planes attacked an Iraqi radar site.

"At 8:55 a.m. local time (11:55 a.m. EDT) today U.S. and British planes ... flew 35 sorties using air bases in Kuwait," the Iraqi military spokesman said in a statement carried by the official Iraqi News Agency.

From here:Us?Britain bombs Basra - 8 killed

New moon is 9/7...

Rosh Hashanah celebrates the creation of the world and is a time for reflection and self evaluation. It is one of the Jewish tradition's holiest days, the days when Jews most commonly attend services at synagogue. Rosh Hashanah begins this year (2002) on the evening of September 6th.

What an irony:

Stalin's Mini-Me flees Baghdad for asylum in Russia on Rosh Hashanah.

For Iraqis, too, will celebrate the creation of the world and find a time for reflection and self evaluation.

Or, in the alternative, die protecting So-damn Insane's retreating rump.

Choose life.

Re#55 Yep. And I wouldn't be surprised if there was some action going on within, i.e. spooks taking out people and things and the opposition getting busy. W has a plan that is being executed as I type...
