#1 As many as 94% of Turks oppose the liberation. But only 91% of Spaniards oppose the liberation. Looks like Spain hasn't quite recovered from being occupied by Moslems for several centuries.

#2 That's nothing compared to 100% of Iraqis opposing liberation, albeit somewhat indirectly of course, as inferred from the closely contended election in Iraq a while back.
(This was an actual argument I heard from an anti-war idiot in a discussion I had with her. God almighty.)

#3 Turkey needs to stand on its own merits. GWB is making a nice gesture, but my family share of that $1B in U.S. taxes is about $20, and frankly, Murat, I wouldn't give Turkey 2 cents right now. Turkey is living on borrowed money -- let the EU save them!

#4 I'm guessing that money was for the limited use of airspace.

#5 How will anyone from an anti-war country look an Iraqi in the eye when this is over ? Yeah, sorry dude, we figured you wanted us to help Saddam.

#6 This probably means that we're staying in NATO when this is all over.
Damn.
