UN non essential personnel evacuating

#1 Postby cycloneye » Sat Mar 08, 2003 4:27 pm

I just got the news that is breaking now but I will have more details later but aparently as the deadline of the 17th comes closer the UN has begun to evacuate some of the workers but the inspectors still are inside Iraq but I guess as the 17th gets more close they will leave too.

Here is more information about this evacuation and Jacki this indicates that something is comming very soon well that soon is the 17th.

It is really getting more interesting as time goes by and next week comes and by tuesday the resolution will be voted and if it is not passed then the US and the UK will go ahead at the 17th to liberate Iraq without UN backing.

I have a question... what is the moon schedule around the 17th? Isn't it still pretty and round then. (Sorry...my moon terminology isn't very sophisticated!) You think it will happen that soon?

Garrett the full moon will be on the 18th but it well be before that because if the UN doesn't pass that resolution then Bush may decide to begin days before the 17th so let's first wait until tuesday to see how the voting in the UN goes.

Good point Cycloneye, if the resolution doesn't pass then Bush may very well go ahead beffore the 17th. President Bush did say that a final warning would be given before an attack. I expect the UN to withdraw the inspectors right before the attack.
