| 2003-03-20 |
| From IRNA, for whatever it's worth Tehran, March 20, IRNA -- the Supreme Assembly of Islamic Revolution in Iraq reported a short while ago that the US forces are now one kilometer from Basra. Makin' good time. That's promising. Sources close to Supreme Assembly of Islamic Revolution in Iraq (SAIRI) said the US troops are likely to launch ground offensives on the city imminently. Yeah, that's what they're there for. The sources say the US forces prefer to launch attacks at night. Basra is a Shiite inhabited province south of Iraq near the Persian Gulf. |
