Mr. Fant wonder if Mr. Blair would have to resign by Christmas when magnitude of the Kosovo fiasco become fully apparent...

The BBC said the Conservatives would win 35 seats to 31 for Labour, with 14 for the Liberal Democrats and four for other parties. biz.yahoo.com

I estimate there will be 20 dead NATO soldiers by July 15. What's your guess? Jim

Here is something interesting. 2225 GMT, 990613 - According to a source outside of the NATO air base at Aviano, NATO aircraft sortied on Sunday, June 13, between 6:45 pm and 8:30 pm local time. This included 2 E-6 Prowlers, 6 F-16s, 2 F-18s, loaded with full ordinance packs. Three A-10s also took off. The planes returned without ordinance. One F-15 appeared to have been damaged and was approached by fire and ambulance immediately upon landing. The observer reported extremely heavy security, in excess of any seen during the war itself. We cannot confirm or deny this report but are passing it on as it is sufficiently detailed to be credible and will provide NATO spokesmen an opportunity to confirm or deny the report. It seems to indicate that combat sorties have resumed or that intense training is going on during a period one would expect to be devoted to R&R.
