Interesing post, bb. Yes, we must always remember the water. The Turks just approved a sale of water to Israel, btw.

BTW Shwarzkopf poo pooed the Scud threat in western Iraq and did not create an effective battle plan to counter the threat. Turns out Scud attacks on Israel was Saddam's only effective weapon or tactic.

Sounds like a military man underestimating the political effects of a campaign?

Is pretty interesting if true, which I'm tending to believe it is. And I hadn't thought of the "water weapon."

4,000 US troops sent to Jordan now. For "exercises."

This must be for the "exercises" too, then, straight to Aqaba.

LONDON (Reuters) - The U.S. Navy confirmed on Tuesday it was seeking a large ship to carry helicopters and arms from the United States to the Red Sea, a day after denying it had placed such an order.
