Wire reports out of London say the U.S. Navy is shipping tanks and heavy armor to the Middle East/Persian Gulf region, using chartered commercial cargo ships. One ship just set sail from a southeastern U.S. port, the report said. According to Reuters, the latest shipment was the third one in a month, and it comes as the United States builds its case for a military invasion of Iraq. Military analysts say the shipping of tanks and other military supplies is similar to what happened in the run up to the 1991 Persian Gulf War, the report said.

You heard this one before?

To me any action we take against Iraq will have more to do with getting "leibensraum" for the Palestinians than overthrowing Saddam Hussein. Saudi Arabia and Jordan get part of Iraq and give up part of their land for the new Palestinian state. (IMHO)

We conquer it ...we own it. We need a gas station.

"Military analysts say the shipping of tanks and other military supplies is similar to what happened in the run up to the 1991 Persian Gulf War,"

Gee, you think???? Maybe I should get one of those plush jobs as a "military analyst"- I can state the obvious as well as anyone!

And Secretary Rumsfeld can track their delivery here.

Now you have gone and let the secret plan out! (Makes a certain amount of sense, though- if the Saudis will go along.)
