Iraq: Countdown to D-Day
(Pravda) - In the United Kingdom, there is to be a mass mobilization of reservists in September. British forces are to pull out from NATO exercises. Defense sources have confirmed that reservists will make up shortages in pilots, medical staff, intelligence, and signals operations. In the United States, there are rumours that the attack could be launched in October. There are other rumours that George Bush sees the conflict as unfinished family business which his father did not resolve a decade earlier. The British Ministry of Defence is anxious to try out the new Watchkeeper Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), robot craft which will relay video images to their controllers, field commanders, and back to the Ministry of Defence building in Whitehall.
