Israeli monitor intercepts order: War starting on March 18

SPECIAL TO WORLD TRIBUNE.COM
Tuesday, March 11, 2003

TEL AVIV — The U.S. military has been ordered to launch a war against Iraq on
March 18, an Israeli official said in a televised report.

Israeli government monitor, Michael Gurdus, reported on late Tuesday that the order
was relayed by U.S. Central Command to all American forces in the Persian Gulf.
Gurdus told Israel's Channel 2 television that he heard the order being relayed to
U.S. fighter-jet pilots and others over U.S. military radio communications he
intercepted.

Gurdus is regarded as the leading communications monitor in the Middle East and
works for Israel radio and television. He has broken numerous stories because of
his ability to intercept and understand foreign-language civilian and radio broadcasts
and communications. He said the U.S. military, in its radio communications, refers
to Iraq as "bad cows" and "kabab", Middle East Newsline reported.

On Monday, Israel's media reported that the United States had demanded that
senior Israeli officials stop issuing predictions of when the war would erupt. Israeli
defense officials have concluded that the United States plans to strike Iraq after
March 17, the deadline set for Iraq to answer questions regarding its missile and
weapons of mass destruction programs.
