I beleive the Turks were paid-off by Saddam to hold-up the US 4th Army ID from coming in by the North. It worked, I just hope that command & Washington see these deceptions
and have started pulling our US troops OUT of Turkey as soon as possible !!! better safe than sorry.

And we shouldn't just pull our troops out of Turkey, we should reinvorce NW Iraq with them, to protect that nation and the Kurds from Turkey. We should be doing that immediately, I'd think.

"I beleive the Turks were paid-off by Saddam to hold-up the US 4th Army ID from coming in by the North." Saddam supposedly has $20 billion in Swiss bnks, so it would be quite possible. If Saddam is dead, and nobody knows the acct numbers and pin numbers, do the Swiss banks get to pocket his loot? Hey, is THIS how the Swiss make their money?
