When will the war start?

At the time of writing, 8th March, the most likely date for war is around the 17th of March. The Washington Post is proposing this date around this time due mainly to the rising temperatures in April. But that is only half the story. The Bush Administration is one like no other. They do believe they are on a crusade against Islam because that is where they think terrorism is based. The Bush administration are a particularly conservative, christian fundamentalist sect. More importantly they want the oil. The Iraqi oil fields have already been carved up and this is why France, Germany and Russia are partly against the war, the carve up is between the USA oil companies and a little for the UK.
