Iraqi President ill,

The Iraq govt have just made a statment that the Iraqi Presedent "Talabani"

Has been taken to Jordan for treatment after taken ill,


One to watch for sure,

The brief statement said only that the 73-year-old Talabani had fallen ill because of "continuing hard work over the past few days."

Talabani, a Kurd, appeared in public Saturday in the Kurdish city of Sulaimaniyah where he met with U.S. Ambassador Zalmay Khalilzad and Massoud Barzani, leader of the self-rule Kurdish region in northern Iraq.
