Ein neuer grund um im lotto zu gewinnen


After countless false starts, some tantalising concepts and far too many years, Lamborghini finally got round to launching an entry-level model in March 2003.

With an upcoming war with Iraq, we're all left asking a bunch of questions. This is a Frequently Asked Questions guide to the upcoming WAR WITH IRAQ (hopefully code-named Operation Desert Storm II: The Revenge)


So, what's up with Iraq anyway?

Iraq has been hiding weapons, and not being very honest. The U.S. doesn't like Iraq as it is part of the "Axis of Evil." Apparently they have terrorists hanging out there too, and terror is bad I've heard.  <CENTER>

Air Force Tests Behemoth Bomb in Florida


In a flashy debut for its biggest non-nuclear bomb, the Air Force on Tuesday dropped a 21,000-pound behemoth onto a test range in Florida, hoping the test would rattle nerves in Iraq as well. The bomb test was declared a success, but movement on other fronts in the U.S.-led push toward war was murkier.

At the United Nations, the United States and Britain faced the prospect of defeat for their resolution giving Iraq until Monday to disarm or be invaded, and it appeared they might agree to a short extension of the deadline.
