BREAKING NEWS: U.S. INTERCEPTS IRAQI TRANSMISSION TO ACTIVATE CHEMICAL WEAPONS IMMEDIATELY

That is correct. Saddam has sent orders to Republican Guard in the field to activate weapons that Iraq claim 'do not exist.'

I especially appreciate crispy critters.

Last week I was having coffee with a few of my friends. The topic turned to war...I said it'd be February 8. Sounds like it may very well be.

This reflects the "decentralization" of command which Iraq has pursued to deal with impending loss of C3.

That sounds plausable to me.

Ron Paul is a LOSERtarian who runs as a Republican (which is the only thing better for LOSERtarians to do than run as LOSERtarians in which the only races they are able to win are less important than regional dogcatcher).

this news about field commanders being given permission by saddam to use chemical weapons was given out yesterday in powell's presentation, he did not put as much emphasis on it as dubya did today, however.

I'll be watching news footage of Iraqi citizens celebrating in the streets, holding up signs thanking the US and its allies for liberating them.

They will all be dead. Insane will kill all he can.

Has he been able to mention that he wants a formal Declaration of War?

Perhaps Rep. Ron Paul will introduce it.

I suspect Saddam might prefer to strike first at Kuwait, Saudi
Arabia, Israel, etc. rather than wait until all of our pieces are in place and it's raining bombs and missles and his entire army folds. Hostages and Human Shields are possible as well, including UN personnel. I don't think it will be too much longer before someone lights this candle. To qoute Bush "THE GAME IS OVER!"

I saw Pres. Bush on CNN live and he stated that the intercept was that Iraqi field Commanders had been given the authorization to use their chemical weapons in combat. This reflects the "decentralization" of command which Iraq has pursued to deal with impending loss of C3.

This also tells me Saddam will not go into exile or give-in to President Bush.

It lock and load time.
