***The Signs Are There: War With Iraq Is Coming SOON***
Stardate: 0209.27

Posted on 09/27/2002 10:42:57 AM PDT by The Wizard

I realized today why Dasshole and the rest are screaming:

About a week to ten days from now the War is going to start, (probably the weekend after the congress/the UN passes it's resolution.....**) and anyone who understands how we work can see it, the signs all turned up on TV Monday.

What you may ask gives me this insight?

Well I'll tell you, as it just hit me.....and I had real reservations about posting, (and If the folks here think this should go, pull away)....

Remember the image of the skies over Bagdad during Desert Storm.....well, on Monday both Fox news and CNN launched a midday show about the "War in Iraq", and PMSNBC sent their reporter to an aircraft carrier in the gulf who has started reporting daily about "drills"

As a TV producer it tells me they are positioning themselves to be on air during the night, (Bagdad Time) and already have everything in place to cover what they expect to be a very short war.

In my field you start a week or two ahead to get your viewers in tow, but you don't start a month or two because you'll lose them......

So, at the risk of seeming like a complete fool, the motions of the TV news gatherers tells me we'll be in and over before Halloween.

And the democrats will have to run against a victorious republican President who has just beaten Iraq, liberated Afghanistan and planted the seeds of democracy in Iran at the same time........

No wonder they're pissed:

They wanted GWB to go to the UN, he did.

They wanted him to come to congress, he did.

And now, before the election, he's going to go into Iraq........(and the War will bost the economy as well)

I've said it before and I will say it again:

Don't mess with this Texan, he's too many moves ahead

Interesting assertion. Could you expand a little. For instance, what was the source of the heads up?

Rick Kaplan ("friend of Bill") was the head of news for CNN at the time; plus there are other inside sources that the networks get access to with the explicit understanding that they are not to release any information directly; call it an embargo, if you will.

The heads up came from the fact that both CNN and fox news, (not on today) introduced a midday show, (night in Bagdad) about a showdown with Saddam....that would tell any TV producer that the events would start soon, because they don't go on a month early, the most two weeks.....

When that was coupled with other reporters doing shows from aircraft carriers, etc........

elementary

Don't forget the Ramadan factor. Remember? We can't disrupt that peacful, tolerant religion by bombing them during Ramadan?
