There won't be any attack, not for quite while yet. The saber-rattling will continue for another 18 months, is my best guess as to the schedule for this.

The saber-rattling will continue for another 18 months, is my best guess as to the schedule for this.

I think that's far too long to keep this going on, and 18 months in particular would have the U.S. attacking in the summer heat. Not a good scenario for soldiers in MOPP gear. It would be a disaster.

Also, it's unimaginable that the sort of political tension this is causing could be sustained for such a long period. Neither the American people nor Middle East countries would tolerate such a protracted "crisis".

Everything I've seen so far points to late January or early February of 2003 for commencing attacks, with January a clear favorite for the beginning of the traditional bombing campaign.

Of course, we'll know soon enough if I'm right or wrong.

I don't think it will be 18 months! Bush cancelled his trip to Africa that was scheduled for January.
