Thanks and how did you find that? I think that's why I didn't remember which thread it was on - didn't look like a good source. Let's hope it's true.

My guess is that Saddam placed his fodder in Basara and held his best troops for BAG.

Therefore, Basara should fall tonight. Just a WAG.

Is "Shock and Awe" underway? Ground troops engaged?

No and yes. The Marines are in Iraq, but Shock and Awe has not started yet.

"Half an hour later, President George W. Bush appeared on television at his desk in the Oval Office, looking tense and suddenly young and vulnerable as he told the nation the war had begun."

No bias at the NYSlimes. Nope. None here...

Unfortunately, the 80's brought and end to all of that. Couldn't find a decent plotter anywhere. Crater Analysis, azimuths, sound bases with the "EKG" machines - no one knew how. I said what about EMP and everybody looked at me sideways - sigh...

Fox news was quoting them. They might be down in Baghdad, but still up on satellite. Just speculation on my part.

I think the Middle East knows what it feels like to live as victims of terrorism....this is what's called LIBERATION FROM TERRORISM!

One last question (I promise!). Does any one network have better battlefield coverage than the others? Mostly what I'm seeing is the green-glow camera in BAG.
