This must be the Ukraine Presidential connection that the secret grand jury in San Francisco is looking at..

Doggone. Looks like we'll have to waste Syria, too. Oh well.

[AmericaUnited]

You mean Syria is sending Iraq some of that broken down old Russian junk they have in their military?

[codebreaker]

And we take down the Ukranian president to boot.

Actually according to Pradva, (type in Ukraine on the FR search engine) the Russkies were funneling the Iraq military contracts through Ethiopia and Syria may be the final stop on the journey to Baghdad.

Type in 'stealth' (for radar equipment) on the FR search engine..that is quicker

[ex-Texan]

Our stealth bombers no doubt will be vulnerable now that Iraq has managed to acquire Russkie stealth detecting radar. I also recall the Russkies buzzed U.S. carrier groups with their new stealth jets and they came in low and fast right on top of our carriers. Scary stuff going on out there.

Maybe we will have to use our Ultra Top Secret Anti-gravity Bombers and pulse weapons against Iraq ? Or just burn up Saddam's secret hide out with lasers based in space? Oh, well ...

(Just Joking ...)

Who knows what lurks in the Nevada desert..I want to see the heli-jet in action that has been rumoured to be out there for so long!

[lavrenti]

The reality is simpler. The Serbs made good use of household items—such as microwave ovens—to fool NATO bombers. After the Kosovo War, some Jug military met with Iraqi counterparts and shared this and other information.

This one is not going to be a 100 hour cakewalk.

I recall it was a recon SU-24 Fencer escorted by an SU-27 Flanker ... hardly stealthy by any means ...

[uncbob]

Iraqis remember the ass kicking they got last time. We have even better weapons now
I doubt anybody but Saddam is looking for a war with the US

No, we're sending Janet Reno and a match. That should take care of it.
