Tuesday Jan 22 Khafji is hit with a mustard gas loaded SCUD shortly before the conventional Iraqi forces began their assault on the town. [1] The city fell with little resistance from the Saudi/Qatar forces. Two US Marine Reconaissance teams were "pocketed" within the city and captured after...

I think John Mccain will have problems winning in 2000. 2000 had very low turnout and Dubya's pull on evangelicals helped him get his win (that and finagling at the highest levels, but I digress) McCain, meanwhile, will have lost that very important base by the time of the election.

Huh. I couldn't find a good source on sarin's properties under heat and consulted a friend of mine. He said in Saudi Arabian weather, it would dissipate in a few hours. Will gladly retcon that. Do you know about the viability of mustard gas remaining? Its a less serious agent, of course, but is...

Well, you'll see on that. Something will be happening in Baghdad, but note that it is "wholly defensive" and UN sanctioned as IOTL. For now.

REASON, v.t. To weight probabilities in the scales of desire. "If Israel attacks any Arab country ... we have the means to burn half of Israel."- Saddam Hussein, President and Prime Minister of Iraq "If Saddam Hussein chooses to use weapons of mass destruction, then the rules of this campaign...

Russia just lost their 8th most populous state.

One thing- Garner made something like one speech for FDR. He won't do anything more for Murphy. Do you have a source for the Murphy thing? And he was an FDR appointee.
