Dear Friends
I, too am experiencing the horrible slow down here so I have not been able to spend the time responding to you
Turkey and the Russians are a part of the scenario
The clue is in Stormin' Norman's presentation to the press, and is there for those who find it. I can't be any more specific.
The "Fog" Of War
Back tonight, if I can update I will, but certainly I will Post next week on this headline and explain all, no matter what transpires
Go, GWB, Go
When you have a man in the White House who believes in the Lord, that's all you need
If I can read between the lines of the Wizards post.
SH was all ready to defend against a main thrust through Kuwait and an amphibious assault near Basra...also remember the little skirmish at Khafgi which made it look like taking Kuwait City would be street fighting...like people are worried about now...
Instead, Schwartzkopf showed us this major secret Schlieffen plan type of swing hugely west in Iraq before we even went over the berms in Kuwait...
this forced the Iraqis to flee Kuwait like a 60's looter in Watts....which of course led to the major destruction of Hussein's R Guard on the "Highway of death".
so...to sum....
I would suggest that the Russkies are letting us use bases...and so are other quiet areas (Jordan?). We are feignting in Kuwait? Turkey?...and coming in other ways.
I certainly don't see large armored columns advancing on Baghdad...
I liked the cryptic little note today that there were large Iraqi units heading south towards Baghdad with undertermined purpose...
...we have no idea whether these troops are loyal or not...or maybe WE do and SADDDAM DOES NOT!
;)
Take it for granted that the psyops people will deserve a major pat on the back for faking out SH on this one...
Maybe we should rememer Patton and the phony army before D-Day.
