Truly, I believe this storm to be from God. Proof, most humbly submitted, can be found in The Holy Bible in Isaiah Chapter 13 and 14. Anyone else agree?

"Yes, Mu'ad-dib. A great-grandmother of storms."

an atmosphere uniquely unsuited for a biochem attack...

I am always pleased to see someone who understands the upside in a situation. This is a VERY important point, missed by most here.

Sure it's from God. God is giving our troops a chance to rest after a rapid and tiring advance before they engage the RG.

The storm didn't stop us and it's blowing the wrong direction for the diaperheads to claim it's their god.

If anything, the storm allowed us to catch up on supplies and moving more troops forward.

"The storm is from God," he said, looking out his trembling window. "Until the aggression started, never in my life did I see a storm like this. We all believe in God, we all have faith in God. And God is setting obstacles against the Americans."

So I guess when the storm subsides and clears the way for American troops...Mohammed will say it's God will to help the Americans. Right?

Of course your hatred of the Jews and Americans, as well as the brutality and cruelty of Saddam's rule is really something that has God on your side in this war...sure Mohammed.

Imad Mohammed believes that the storm only affected the allies? Not the Iraqi? What will he say when God's loving sun comes out and shines on the tanks, and planes and armor?

He's right. The 4th Infantry has got to catch up with the tip of the spear, and this storm will cool the jets of the Republican Guard until we can disembark some of the armored vehicles of the 4th to get it up there.

God's giving our guys a SCREEN behind which to advance, and which also provides an atmosphere uniquely unsuited for a biochem attack...

My thoughts exactly!

Regards,

This war is like something out of the Bible.

You mean where it describes the destruction of those nations which hate Israel?

The Babylon center of commerce was destroyed in one and a half hours. America could be the Biblical Babylon.
