That deal in Iraq drew attention away from other things in the world today which are good news instead of bad, thus getting second billing....

Turks Said Ready to Sign UN Cyprus Deal
quote:
The referendums would open the way for Cyprus, focus of bitter rivalry between NATO partners Greece and Turkey, on occasion verging on war, to enter the European Union on May 1 as a united island.

That would head off serious diplomatic problems for the EU, Greece and not least of all Turkey

Wow, thank you most especially for the second article. Sadly, I'm not accustomed to seeing that kind of story turn out with anything other than a dead body at its end.

Wow, that would be amazing if Greece and Turkey were able to make amends. Though it sounds like this is solely concerning Cyprus.

I always have to go to Google News to get good news. CNN and ABCNEWS is always filled with such bad, depressing stuff (which, of course, I read anyway since I'm such a news nut).
