<< Interesting aswell is, that when General Franks was asked about the strategy of lying and disinformation ("two days ago you told us here you´d be in control of Umm-Kasar, yesterday you told us to be in control of Basra, today you tell us that there´s fighting in both areas and you´re still in your schedule of GAINING control soon - won´t you say this is kind of disinformaition&quot by the allied forces he started telling about Iraqi people soon having supply of fresh water and food ... (what´s that an answer to this question?) >>

You took this as an honest inquiry?

In any case General Franks explained that the U.S. would be in sufficient control of the town of Basra to allow humanitarian aid to begin arriving into the town in as soon as 36 hours. He couldn't have been any clearer or more explicit. Somehow it appears that you missed it and 'interpreted' his response as evasiveness.
