#1 Were those first two editorials before our warning shot "stray" bombs? I can't believe they think we're not serious.

#2 "The key is with Ankara, not Washington".

Good thinking, Maariv. You can be sure that Turkey and the EU will continue to show the concern and support for Israel that they have in the past. What a backstabbing dolt.

#5 I've always liked McCaffrey, and here he brings up some very good points. Iraq is not the place to be experimenting with the new way of fighting. Already, it looks like events are conspiring to allow / force us to bring in more troops for Baghdad. If I remember correctly, 4ID equip transited the Suez 2 days ago. But, I also think that 3000 casualties is high, unless the Iraqs are able to really hit us with Bio/Chem cap. The bottom line here is that Turkey strung us along or those 4ID troops would be there right now. Sorry Murat, but that's the truth of it - and we WILL remember that.

#6 I've been baffled by Turkey for a while. Now I realize they're just bungling. Golly, Erdogan, don't be a Mr. Bungles.

#7 Apologies for submitting to wrong article - this should have gone under
'McCaffrey' but I stand by my comments regarding Turkey. Quite an appropriate name now, don't ya think?
