US, Brits attack Iraqi anti-aircraft site
2002-01-23
  • U.S. and British warplanes attacked anti-aircraft batteries in southern Iraq, the second raid on the site this week. The planes struck near Tallil, about 170 miles southeast of Baghdad. On Monday, allied aircraft fired on the same site after being threatened by ground fire from Iraqi air defenses.
    This is just "maintaining a presence" in Sammy's domain. It shows we're still awake and gives his guys an excuse to wave their guns and holler. When something of significance happens, it'll come from a different direction entirely.
