An "amazing" newslink - US says Iraq hostilities not covered by Olympic truce - AFP via Yahoo! News (Aug 12, 2004)

2 hours, 52 minutes ago http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=1521&e=4&u=/afp/20040812/pl_afp/oly_2004_usa_iraq_truce_040812215714
WASHINGTON (AFP) - The United States said that its military operations in Iraq are not covered by the so-called Olympic truce that it signed on to last year at the United Nations.

On the eve of the opening of the 2004 Olympics in Athens, the State Department said US soldiers now fighting in Iraq would not be bound by the terms of the truce that calls for

all nations in conflict to observe a traditional ceasefire during the Games.
