Attack on Iraq Betting Pool
Friday, August 30, 2002 | Momaw Nadon

Posted on 08/30/2002 8:14:01 AM PDT by Momaw Nadon

It seems like an attack on Iraq is coming soon.

Place your bet as to when the attack will begin.

Whoever gets closest to the date and time wins.

Attack time must be specified in Month, Day, Year, Hour, and Minute

For the hour, don't forget to specify what time zone you are referring to.

There is no decision on a prize to be awarded yet except for bragging rights.

Most Americans favor giving inspectors more time in Iraq

Jan. 25 — With the United Nations’ weapons inspectors’ first major report due on Monday, Americans are increasingly reluctant to take military action against Iraq, according to a new NEWSWEEK poll. About four out of five polled (81 percent) want the United States to join its major allies and get full U.N. support before possibly attacking Iraq, and a majority approve of giving U.N. weapons inspectors more time to search for banned weapons.

Just days before his Jan. 28 State of the Union address, Bush’s overall approval rating, while still fairly strong at 55 percent, continues to decline........

I looked at a calendar with stages of the moon on it. There's about 3/4 moon starting on the 17th...that's enough to give our night vision enough ambient light to work just fine ;-)

Should read that radical Islam is the USA's enemy and those who practice it, not all of Islam.
