Turkey is allowing in US troops
Drudge is linking to an AP story saying that Turkey is now allowing US troops to deploy. All the other warbloggers will find this a shock, but, as I've said before, over and over again the entire Turkish flap was almost entirely a disinformation campaign. The 4th ID is there, it is now in position, and will be moving into Free Iraq by tomorrow morning, enroute to Kirkuk, Tikrit, and points south.
Update: Here's a more detailed link.
Update:MSNBC is reporting as well
When asked when parliament would resubmit a new resolution, presidential spokesman Tacan Ildem said: “Our government will make the necessary evaluation urgently.”“A unanimous decision was reached ... that there is a need to move urgently,” he added.
I knew they'd come through in the end. Posted by John Bono at March 17, 2003 03:37 PM | TrackBack
