Most likely next year. My friends' brother has just graduated from the Australian army. Upon graduation (a couple of months back) they were asked who would be prepared to aid a US-led assault on Iraq 'early next year'. This was before Iraq became 'gangraped-middle-eastern-country-of-the-month', back when Afghanistan essentially still held that title. An Iraq invasion has been on the US republican aggenda for a long long time.

So yeah, next year is my vote.

Perhaps when Bush decides to use his brain, he'll realize that killing innocent people isn't going to solve his problem. I still have yet to see hard proof as to a need to invade Iraq other than installing a puppet government to sell cheap oil to the US. Perhaps I'm wrong, but...

Are you sure it wasn't Missouri? B2's are kept at SAC bases, and I don't recall any SAC bases in Montana. But at my age the memory is the second thing to go, I forgoten what the first was ;)

Personalli i hope Iraq is smart enough to force saddam into doing everything the UN wants but i dont see how this "war" can be avoided :(

The reality is that America will go to war whenever bush feels like it... it could be tonight even...

<font color="lightblue">If Bush thinks America wants him to go, he`ll go before the election.
If he thinks that America DOESN`T want him to go, he`ll hope to get back in, and do it straight after the election. </font>

Whenever Bush is seriously dropping in the polls, that's when the US will attack Iraq...

How long until the elections ? Two years ? I have a feeling the attack will come much earlier, like this or next week.

No Johnny, the elections mentioned are this November. They are for the house, senate, and various governorships.
