LONDON and JERUSALEM -- Britain's Daily Express newspaper said on Thursday British troops based in the Gulf had been told to prepare for an invasion of Iraq on March 17. The newspaper, quoting unnamed Westminster sources, said British officers based in Kuwait had been told to expect an invasion on that date, preceded by a massive "short and sharp" air blitz on Iraq from March 13. A Ministry of Defence spokeswoman said she had no comment on the story. The U.S. and Britain have committed more than 300,000 troops to the Gulf region along with dozens of warships and more than 500 attack aircraft for a possible war against Iraq. In its most serious warning yet, the Israeli army told residents on Wednesday to get gas masks and buy supplies to seal a room in their house in preparation for a possible U.S.-led war in Iraq. "As of now I want to emphasize -- get ready, renew your gas masks and finish buying equipment for sealing rooms," Brig. Gen. Ruth Yaron, the army's chief spokeswoman, said on several morning radio talk shows. Maj. Gen. Aharon Zeevi-Farkash, chief of Israeli military intelligence, told a a parliamentary committee on Tuesday that a U.S.-led attack could come as early as next week. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
