Layout, do you know the source of the countdown clock or who it is supposed to be affiliated with, that's the first I've seen of it and if my math is correct, zero hour would be 2-2-04.

This countdown expires at midnight Pacific time the night of February 3rd, 2004. JavaScript source ---> setcountdown(2004,2,4)
Google search of "khayma.com iraqihell End US"
StillProud2BeFree, I neglected to set my clock forward to see what would happen after the countdown expired. The first google search link shows a screen-shot of the countdown page once it has expired. Can you translate the message for us? Thanks!!! LG2

It looks like the clock counts down to 4 February 2004 at about 12:01 AM EST.
The problem is that over the past 30 years there haven't been very many months that someone somewhere on the net hasn't marked as TEOTWAWKI, often 2 or 3 dates in a single month. We've had several dates set just in the past couple of months that came and went with no obvious major changes in the world. :)
There's certainly a lot of stuff going on that could turn very serious indeed ... however I'm always suspicious of date-setters since their track record is so very poor. And if this was a date where the original poster had some kind operational knowledge of something planned to happen on that date rather than relying some prophecy for choosing that date ... well then he's exhibiting amazingly bad tradecraft.
However in general terms that rough time frame is of great concern given the mindset of some of the radical Islamists. Does anyone know anything about who posted the original counter?
