The BBC is reporting that Tony Blair will give a speech to Labour Party supporters on Oct. 2 saying among other things that the Taliban’s times is up and that the United States and other nations will launch a devestating attack on Afghanistan for harboring bin Laden. This follows George W. Bush’s statements earlier today that the United States was ready to strike back at those responsible for the 9/11 attack. War before the weekend? It certainly is starting to look that way.
