Live report from Fox for those of you without cable.......US troops in fierce street fighting today in Karbala, daytime fighting...usually fighting at night. Street to street, a lot of RPG fire from terrorists, some vehicles hit, NO US casualties!! Only way to get water to the soldiers is to have it thrown from a Bradley vehicle. RPG exploded very close to Fox cameraman who has a slight injury to his hand.

Daytime fighting shows aggressiveness of our forces. They could use bombs but are trying to be precise so as not to harm civilians.

Could you all send prayers for their safety and that somehow we can boost their morale from all the negative stuff going on in the media. Our troops are fighting for all of us and they are in a tough and dangerous place. As President Bush said they fight there so we don't have to fight in our streets.

Also Don Rumsfeld is going before the committee at 11:45 est. He could use a prayer as well, although he doesn't take much cr@p from anyone!!

God please protect our troops and bless our Military reps being scrutinized by their enemies
