#5  "We got em right where we want them." I think that was a Chesty Puller quote.

There is a story that condums were dropped in resupply to the Marines up at the frozen Chosen in Korea. Chesty Puller was reported to have said: "What the hell do they think we are doing to the Chinese."

#2  Clearly Turkey and Iran do not respect the sovereignty of Iraq. I'm wondering where this leaves the U.S.

#1  Both Iran and Turkey are currently massing troops on their sides of the border with Iraq, in preparation for a ground and airborne assault on the rebel bases inside Iraq,
