Dieser Bösewicht willigt doch glatt in die UN(USA)-Res. ein;

Jetzt, nach der Zinssenkung, wo die Amis doch das billige so dringend Öl brauchen.

Hmmmmm, vielleicht könnte Brezel-Georgy noch ein paar Bedingungen nachschießen.

Wie wärs mit: Öl-Lieferung an USA zu 3 $ das Barrel,
oder die Irak-Armee darf nur mehr Steinschleudern verwenden, oder etc.

Also Saddam: dann zeig den Inspektoren zumindest deine Palast-Folterkammer nicht ...

Coalition forces strike Iraqi radar site

Friday, November 15, 2002 Posted: 9:32 PM EST (0232 GMT)

MACDILL AFB, Florida (CNN) -- Coalition aircraft patrolling the southern "no-fly" zone in Iraq struck an air defense communications facility Friday after the planes came under heavy fire, an action the United States said violates the latest U.N. resolution.

Lt. Cmdr. Nick Balice, a U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) spokesman, said the coalition strike "came as a result of Iraqi forces firing anti-aircraft (artillery) and surface-to-air missiles."

The Pentagon said the hostile action by Baghdad was a breach of U.N. resolution 1441, Section 8, which says "Iraq shall not take or threaten hostile acts directed against any representative or personnel of the United Nations or ... any member state taking action to uphold any Council resolution."

However, military officials said, it is ultimately up to the United Nations to decide if the action was a "material breach."

At the White House, a Bush administration official said, "We consider this to be a violation of the resolution."

This official said the United States could take its complaint to the Security Council, but refused to disclose the administration`s plans.

National Security Council spokesman Sean McCormack said, "Iraq should stop firing on U.S. and U.K. warplanes flying in the no-fly zones, not only to ensure the safety of inspectors flying into Iraq, but also to demonstrate its willingness to comply with its obligations under the U.N. Security Council resolution."

Earlier this week, both Secretary of State Colin Powell and Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld said they were considering whether to declare such actions by Iraq as a material breach of the resolution, which calls Baghdad to disclose its weapons of mass destruction and to disarm.

The United States has said it would use military force to disarm Iraq if it commits such a breach.

None of the coalition planes was hit during Friday`s incident, Balice said.

The strike -- which used precision-guided weapons -- hit the radar facility near An Najaf, about 85 miles southeast of Baghdad, at 2:50 p.m. ET.

"Today`s strike came after Iraq moved the SAM (surface-to-air missile) sites into the "no-fly" zone in violation of U.N. resolutions. Presence of the sites is deemed a threat to coalition aircraft," a CENTCOM statement said.

Iraq has fired on coalition aircraft more than a dozen times since last Friday, when the United Nations adopted the latest resolution against Baghdad. Friday`s strike was the first since Baghdad reluctantly accepted the terms of the resolution, which came in a defiant, nine-page letter Wednesday.

U.S. intelligence officials said that Iraq has also added boosters to some of its missiles to increase their range. Coalition aircraft are adjusting for this modification, officials said.

Was noch nachzutragen wäre: Ramadan 2002: 5. Nov. - 3. Dez. 2002

Am 5. Dezember ist ja bekanntlich der Krampus unterwegs, mich dünkt, daß der Georgy am 6. Dez. den Nikolo spielt ... und Geschenke nach Bagdad liefert.
