Yes, but the Iraq leadership is also convinced that Jews performed the 9/11 trade center attacks.

Debka has hit some right, and, in light of Codebreaker's #1, this could be another one they've called right. It bears watching.

I don't believe there is any way an attack would come this early...lots of people/things to be put in place...and lots of stalling to be accomplished by saddam. My guess is this fall sometime.

Stand by, Iraq. As humiliating as the Persian Gulf War was, you haven't seen anything yet. If having your entire military raked in 100 days (by a US military that was constrained by a fragile coalition) was painful, just wait till Act II. Have fun, Iraqi scumdogs.

How can this be since the Turks are so set against the US going into Iraq?
