I don't doubt that we have Special Forces on the ground already, this war has already started.

Yes indeed!!....has been going on awhile..

I missed my November 7th choice. I'll stick with my first thought of January 17, 2003. If I have to narrow it down to a time of day I'll choose 8:00 p.m. EST.

I wish it was sooner but it looks like we may play games with Iraq for a couple months.

[Alas Babylon!]

I'm with you. I'll pick the 16th of January, just like in 1991.

December 4th, 21:30 GMT/Zulu

(Still new moon, and the evening AFTER Ramadan is over, midnight + 30 min in Bagdad -- on the top of the hour would be too obvious)

December 11, 2002 22:00 New Earth Crater, um I mean Baghdad time.

This is after 1st quarter moon -- the new moon is too expected. It is also after Ramadan (Nov 6-Dec 5). Not that we care that much about Ramadan, but why complicate an already complex situation?

[iopscusa]

Official start is: 1/02/03 1:00am Baghdad time.

I don't think my August prediction will hold up, only 9 days left. :(

Um.....we've BEEN at war, ever since Saddam first thumbed his nose at the weapons inspectors.....so "when it will start" is a moot point.

The week following the Super Bowl.

What's the over-under?

[Momaw Nadon]

Just pick the time of the massive initial airstrike on Iraq.

There is no "over-under."

Make sure to include the month, day, year, hour, and minute while specifying what time zone you are referring to.
