The rejection of the 30B to use Turkey as a land base was voted by their people. The current allowance of airspace was decided by the government. I don't think they get the dough now, and it is an indicator of fatalism. When you are a small nation with no power, you are often forced to compromise.

I agree that this is flatulence. I don't think they should get the money either.

Tom Dashel needs to RESIGN!!!!! He is rooting for Iraqi's in bold face infront of the Administration... his Actions are far beyond Freedom of Speech... in his Political Position he is Discracing the Nation with his Actions... and Should Step Down!!!!!!

Even Lieberman is backing GWB's Stand on this Issue...
