FoxNews Alert just reported that Iraqi troops have left Baghdad with heavy artillary and are heading south to the Kuwaiti boarder. More troops with SCUD missle launchers are heading west. The thought is that Saddam is about to attack our troops.

This is breaking news and details are few and far between.

TURN ON FOX

LOL! You need to stay off those Smart threads. I saw on one where they had you surrounded.

Lesser known facts of World War II

THE INCIDENT which triggered the Second World War was the simulated attack by the Germans on their own radio station near Gleiwitz on the Polish border. To make it appear that the attacking force consisted of Poles, prisoners from a nearby concentration camp were dressed in Polish uniforms then shot and their bodies placed in strategic positions around the radio station. A Polish speaking German then did a broadcast from the station to make it appear that Poland had attacked first.
This was the excuse Hitler needed to invade Poland on September 1st. 1939.

And last time there werent any chemicals or bio weapons used.

You forgot about Israel for one..... they would love to make a point to Iran.. "Don't screw with us or else".

[PhiKapMom]

I am glad you remembered it too -- I wanted to make sure I wasn't dreaming after the last few days of all the spin!

A French built Iraqi Mirage F-1 fighter launched two French built Exocet missiles into the USS Stark in the Persian Gulf killing 37 American sailors.

If you can figure out how to level Pairree any lower than it already is, more power to you (sounds impossible to me, though).

I think one of these ought to do the trick...

Thanks, P8riot.

How did we respond to the attack?

[valleygal]

It went up another 6 cents here since yesterday (PHX). Regular is 1.99 or 2.00.

[First_Salute]

Yep; it is the N.B.C. landmine, which has everybody spooked.

[P8riot]

We didn't. It was labelled an "accident"

[Destro]

The fake Racak massacre in Kosovo gave Clinton his excuse-this laughable assertion that Iraqi is about to attack thus giving us the excuse we need smacks of desperation from the neo-con news sources. What a disgrace, IMHO. I am for the war, but don't insult our intelligence with a fig leaf excuse.

[fiftymegaton]

Maybe two just to make sure.

[valleygal]

Praying for your step-son and family!

"You forgot about Israel for one..... they would love to make a point to Iran.. "Don't screw with us or else"."

Swell, Israel nukes Iraq and Pandora's box is opened for good. No thanks, this war will be solved with conventional weapons, albeit a lot of them!

[bcoffey]

"Yep; it is the N.B.C. landmine, which has everybody spooked."

So that's where they've been hiding their stuff!

[PhiKapMom]

Last time we promised to defend them and asked them not to attack.

This time is different -- Sharon has said he won't sit by and let them attack Israel and not retaliate!

[SierraWasp]

"They'd probably look for someone to surrender to."

Wait! Not till they can form some kind of "Consensus Effort" leading to a "Win/Win" situation and the furtherance of world socialism through environmentalism... don'tcha know.

By the way, P8, I thing the last part of your handle is a "riot!"

[freedom4me]

I'm surprised since Ronaldus Magnus was President.

[section9]

Is it just me or would this be the perfect opportunity for Bush to open the campaign by saying that we thought the Iraqis were priming for a first strike.

Be Seeing You,
