The reporter on PBS special report of the Azore Summit did not say the invasion would kick off then, but that we would be seeing the first indications of attack.

No word on when the President is going to schedule a time for the address to the nation

[ewing]

This sounds like the standard warning given to journalists..

[COBOL2Java]

This sounds very series. I'd better go take a shower!

[ez]

Other info seems to hint the address wil be Mon. night.

[ewing]

So the Global Security.org clock is on the money..

[MizSterious]

Reminds me of something you said...

[ewing]

I'm going to make sure my flights are cancelled!

As of 1 pm PST, FOX is saying approx 3 pm on Monday for Presidential address.

[AmericanInTokyo]

3 p.m. Monday US Eastern time is 11:00 p.m. local in Baghdad. Of course, about 48 hours out from that will be 3 p.m. Wednesday US Eatern time or roughly nearing the midnight hour between Wednesday and Thursday in Iraq.

Look for that time frame for the US/UK to start the enforcement of 1441.

Of course, anytime between right now (due to Azores statement) and late Wednesday, Saddam Hussein could launch his chemical or biological attack on US forces as well as the state of Israel.

We may be attacked yet before we have a chance to roll ourselves. This is a very dangerous time. We should also be on extreme alert for domestic US terrorism, even if the alert level has not been raised yet to Orange or Red. I assume it will be raised tomorrow.

Stay safe!
