Zeev's Turnips Patch-No Politics (ZEEV)

[Train Guy]

Got around to reading the 21st Century morning briefing and this is interesting.

Our intelligence source Debka is reporting in
their weekly edition that "American and British
special forces have begun taking over Iraqi oil
fields close to the Kuwait border and around
the port town of Basra, in audacious commando operations. These fields account for three-quarters
of Iraq's oil output."

Apparently the commandos are encountering little or no resistance. This is big news, as it looks like
-- unknown to the world -- the military campaign to topple Saddam's regime in Iraq is already
underway. Action is being taken now to seize these oilfields in response to Saddam's directive to
blow up these fields upon any American or Turkish invasion.
