Re: "You never answered my question -- what's the lead time for mobilizing the reserves?" The lead time for mobilizing the reserves is a few days. But that doesn't apply here, and you know it. Even after the reserves are mobilized a real shooting war (for the ground forces) is months away. But the fact that there are not massive mobilizations right this minute is supposed to prove that we do not intend to fight a war in Iraq? Why do I sense a 'heads I win, tails you lose' style of argument here. If the absence of reserve mobilization is meaningless, then why do you keep quoting it?
