United States Spots Iraq Moving Missiles South
For the first time, Iraq has moved missiles toward the Kuwaiti border.
The United States fears the missile may be armed with nonconventional warheads.
United States Spy Satellites detected an undetermined number of launchers and missiles transported from positions south of Baghdad toward the area of Basra, Western Intelligence sources said.
Iraqi military forces are also moving troops and equipment into Northern Iraq in anticpation of military action.
Nine large rocket systems were moved from one town and concealed in a storage depot in the town of Diyala, where a dam is located, the Kurdish Newspaper 'Irbil Brayati' reported last week.

And also according to Gertz the Iraqis are now forming 'execution and shooting' committees to deal with deserters or soldiers who refuse to fight.

All they are going to say is they have to defend themselves from the big bad US. I'm steamed finding out France sold them a nuke reactor and Germany sold them the damn missiles to fill chem/bio into! No wonder they are against us!

Please send the GPS coordinates of the missiles to Hans Blix and then lets see if they can find them. Any bets they would?

I do vaguely remember something like that earlier in the week, although I couldn't put my finger on it.

... also US preparing to use the "E-BOMB". Nothing will work electronically once dropped. I'd bet the Noth Koreans shape up real quick, or get tuned up, after that! Couppled with the hugh LASER on a 747 that takes out missles - there should not be too much to worry about.
Although the "E Bomb" may use a small nuke at its core, the results make it worth using. The numnutz making nuclear weapons will realize that their efforts are in vain. ...all we have to worry about are our borders and allies (Germany).
