According to Debka, Turkey has agrred to allow US forces to launch from there. There's no word on whether the UIS sweetened the pot or Turkey folded, but according to this article, the troops are already landing.
The report goes on to say some interesting things including this:
As for the urgency of the US-UK second Security Council resolution, its only importance for the US president is as a means of drawing some of the sting from the anti-war backlash preying on such war allies as Tony Blair. Privately, Bush has washed his hands of the world body. When the time comes, he intends to settle scores with the UN as well as with Germany, France and Russia for behavior which he sees as leaving America in the lurch.
This could get very interesting.
