Dear CASI Members, A friend & I have a query, which may seem irrelevant to the present-day situation. However, at least indirectly, it may have some bearing. In 1991, as the coalition forces were approaching Baghdad, so the story goes, the were met by a large contingent of Russian military, thus they decided to avoid Baghdad. Is there any truth in this, & were Russian forces ever participants in the so-called First Gulf War? Could there, on this issue, have been a cover-up? If any of you can help to shed some light in this matter, that would be very much appreciated. Greetings, Bert Gedin. _________________________________________________________________ Overloaded with spam?
