Jim Mik said he was told this was NOT a new target, but one they'd known about for "several days". God bless our Spec Ops guys on the ground in Baghdad!

Wasn't it Patton who asked: "Where do we find such men?".

6 1/2 min. until Pres. Bush speaks - Surgical strikes aimed at Iraqi leaders outside Bagdad. No information as to whether they hit their intended targets. Saddam was there and that is who they were after but no information as to if they were successful.

This 21st century warfare reminds me of the civil war when the ladies would put on their best pettycoats and bring a lunch basket to view the battle from a hillside.LOL!

It is very similar to this we see today.
