I agree.
My worry is that the photo was staged to add a little more fuel to the anti_Bush fire, as in....see what we've done to this poor little boy.

My heart goes out to him, don't get me wrong, I just worry that he might have been used as a pawn

3x the amount of cruise missiles used in this conflict than were used in the entire Gulf War 1991

Tanks traveled an impressive 100 miles in 24 hours.

They were doing fine and said not to worry about them because the bombing was *only* at the palaces and such. He said he was sad it was happening to his countrymen but was also glad about the end of Saddam and that Bush was avoiding civilians

Thanks for that info

Well, it's sad that he does not understand that it is SADDAM HUSSEIN'S fault. . . .

He may come to change his mind. What is unforgivable in my mind is NBC exposing the father's sentiments at this time, on a national stage. That is no favor to the father, the son, or the grandson.

I seriously doubt that the Hobbitt thread got 4800 posts in one day as this thread has.

oh, they're just bored. i've shown restraint with them. we're in a lull. when it gets serious again, just the threat of the full frontal helen will calm them right down.

I would say around 80%+ of all photos are staged. Staged or not, it is still incredibly powerful. That is the important part.

I think we probably expect to see some day-time surrenders by top leaders and RG troops. We want to keep things as-is until surrenders stop.
