I don't know where Gordon is
getting this information from. Others are speculating any time
after the 27th of January as that's when the UN weapons inspection ends.

WAR TO
START IN LAST WEEK OF FEBRUARY
by Gordon Thomas
President Bush
has ear marked the start of the war with Iraq for the last week in
February.
Midnight on the
21st of the month has been fed into strike force computers as the launch of the
most powerful air attack the world has known.
Bush revealed the details to
Ariel Sharon, Israel�s prime minister, in a telephone call over
Christmas.
Sharon has already hinted he knows the date but insists he is
sworn to secrecy. But his military commanders have been briefed on the
role Israel�s forces will play.
In the last Gulf War, Washington persuaded
Israel to remain out of the conflict � because their involvement would wreck the
fragile coalition America had built with Arab nations.
But Sharon has
insisted that this time Israel must have a part in ending the threat Saddam
poses to the Jewish state.
Israel�s role will be to launch round the clock
air attacks to destroy Saudi missiles roaming in the Iraqi deserts only minutes
flying time from Tel Aviv.
Israeli fighter aircraft will also be on hard
stand readiness to shoot down any Iraqi planes that try to seek refuge in
Syria.
In the last Gulf War, Saddam�s planes fled to Iran � where they have
remained.
Israel�s airfields are already acting as an air bridge for American
forces � bringing in men and supplies for the ground assault that will follow
the initial February bombardment.
