Well, if the lead up to this war is anything to go by, I feel we will be spinning like there is no tomorrow in a couple of days time.

So what spin do you think the U.S. war machine will inflict on us, only to be discredited when it's all over and noone cares anymore?

Obviously the number one spin will be anything to do with Nuclear weapons programs, followed shortly by exagerration of it's bio/chem stockpiles. They will need this for justification if/when Saddam doesn't use them against incoming troops.

I found the story of Iraqi soldiers donning U.S./U.K. uniforms so they can perform atrocities against the Iraqi people and blame the great satan that came out last week quite interesting, pre-emptive spinning perhaps?

I'm also betting on some sort of Iranian fuckup (invasion, firing on U.S. troops) so that we can easily move straight on to them once we finish in Iraq.

Anybody else got some predictions?

I'm predicting a quick feint by North Korea, into the DMZ. Perhaps take a few hundred yards of territory. If for no other reason than to let the Dubya administration know that they're still out there.
