[casi] Oilfields and Airlines




Russian president and former KGB chief Vladimir Putin has already warned
that Chechen fighters,already masters at using shoulder launched Strela SA-7
missiles to bring down Russian military helicopters,may have weapons
`comparable'
with WMD`s.
High civilian casualties caused by US-British bombing raids on Iraq could
result
in SA-7attcks on American and British civilian airlines similar to the
Israeli jet
in Mombasa.The Israelis,needless to say,have fitted their aircraft with
anti-missile
technology,but other airlines are defenceless.
A desperate Saddam could be quietly smuggling dirty bombs as a last fling,to
stop Bush grabbing the oilfields.Usama bin Laden has proclaimed Pan Islamic
struggle ( Jihad). If Saddam torches the oilfields and turns them into a
radioactive
ash tray, it will be an expensive war for the Pentagon.
