Bob Novak makes a United States war with Iraq sound imminent
The signal has spread through the Pentagon: on to Baghdad to get rid of Saddam Hussein, probably in September when the weather should be fine and the United States high tech arsenal will be replentished.
That's what Defense Department policymakers plan, but their cheers are balanced by apprehension among civilian and military career officials.
Some of them are apparently are crossing their fingers for Secretary of State Colin Powell to exert control over the situation. (ugh!-ed.)

Just caught your comments to KineticKitty and
"..To poster above, asking if "Mayday"..."I didn't intend to hammer on you, if indeed you took that way. There was a slight tongue-in-cheek with my comment.

Thanks for all the posts - but I question everything Bob Novak says. And if this is true - why would he tell the world? Thanks a lot, Bob.

Speculation on the exact date and time is something I shall abjure. It does absolutely no good for those who may be engaged in ops. I will meerly state that the sooner the better but what I do think is that our nation may well be waiting until we have adequate small pox vacine for our whole population on hand and sufficient Cipro to deal with a major anthrax attack on our cities. Such precautions are merely prudent.
Stay well - Stay safe - Stay armed - Yorktown

The bush doctrine, talk tough and then beg. Tell that to Al Qaeda and the Taliban. Assuming you've pulled your head far enough out of your arse to be heard.

Ah a kool aid drinker, throwing the insults out and personnal attacks.
Again the Bush doctrine is talk tough and then beg the suadis don't cut off the oil.
Israel believed the bush doctrine and executed it and the little mac of the 21st century, says you must not do that.
Bush has shown heimself to grasp politics as well as his father did.
Maybe someday there will be a real conservative leader, who will talk plain with the american people and means what he says, but not today.

Kool-Aid drinker? If that means I pay attention to world events, then bring on the punch! If it means I don't buy your rambling, nonsensical statements with little to no basis in fact, then I'm guilty!
Maybe someday there will be a real conservative leader, who will talk plain with the american people and means what he says,
And maybe one day all FR posters will use spelling and grammar checkers!

September 11 would be good; say around 10AM Eastern Daylight Savings Time?
I think Bush would be guaranteed of public supprt for that.
BTW, does anyone know the Arabic characters for "Eat Pork or Die!" ?
I'm looking to put together some 'T'-shirts...
