This will be todays thread. Media is in full handwringing mode over some Iraqi unit showing up for the fight.
Yes it is No Blue States. Something that too many Americans have taken for granted, abused and misused for far too long.
Hopefully when it is all said and done the Iraqis will appreciate and cherish it.
"right up there with "F*CK FRANCE, GERMANY."
.........and Coffeecup Annan :)
Thanks.
I would think a terrorist photo album could come in quite handy. No telling what else they will find in Fallujah.
After looking at TCP again it seems to imply the Zarqari aide killed story came from the Washington Post.
But you have to be registered to view it, maybe someone else is registered and can dig further and get verification.
Great pic :)
assuming of course there are no escape tunnels.
one fox report said that the Marines were blasting shut the exits to the tunnels.
yeah. F*CK him, too.
Yes! Thank you. Tingles my toes.
Very well explained. Thank you for your imput on this - far better than my own would have been.
TexKat, I always enjoy your posts but I have to ask please no more pictures of the fatally wounded US troops. Some of us have family there.
I bet it looks like a fire ant bed when you kick the top off of it.
"An earlier report from Agence France-Presse said insurgents had captured the city center of Ramadi.
``There is no word of insurgents taking over in Ramadi,''
Gilbert said. He said the attack on U.S. troops there involved gunfire, homemade bombs and rocket-propelled grenades. The city is part of the so-called Sunni Triangle, a stronghold of support for the regime of deposed dictator Saddam Hussein, which has bedeviled efforts by the interim government to bring Iraq under control.

I didnt realize the importance of the train station capture. The trains can be used to bring supplies in.
All your trains are belong to us now.
FNC just showed some of Greg Palkot's video from Mon night - pretty intense. They're very calm & professional - God Bless them.
Hey FRiend, could you kill the link to the pics of our badly wounded? thanks :)
"I didnt realize the importance of the train station capture. The trains can be used to bring supplies in."
I thought the train station was out of service before we went in and used only as a terrorists meeting site?
Your right Gucho, its just a good base for us with a birds eye view.
"By Tuesday morning, U.S. forces were busy transforming the train station into a new forward base, laying cables, building privies and rapidly turning the shattered concrete buildings into communications shacks and command centers.
Marines standing watch near the tracks appraised the station's tactical value.
"This train station, with its high ground, is a good foothold. We can see out over the whole city," said Middleton.

Now that sounds like a plan :) - (Enjoy your windsurfing sKerry)
