No, and I am concerned about traveling, but I am so very homesick. I need to get back to my own things so I can be comfortable as I key my post.

Brit says, "the closest thing to a diplomatic S and A" we can ask.

That it is. It says "The regime of Iraq is now formally defunct. Gone. History. Please expel its representatives from your coutry. You will be advised when a new government is in place."

IMHO, we're showing the middle east what it feels like to live as victims of terrorism.

Is "Shock and Awe" underway?

No. I think someone from the Pentagon said, "If you have to ask then it's not S and A."

Ground troops engaged?

SkyNews is reporting that US and UK troops are on the ground in Iraq.

No night yet on the "Shock and Awe" ... Yes on the Ground Troops

Iraqi TV saying 4 soldiers dead 5 soldiers wounded in today's attacks.

Strikes were pre-determined, not targets of opportunity

Not yet. Pentegon says it will be unmistakeable. They are "prepping" the battle field now.
