Good idea. Deserters have to read the entire thread and summarize - and they will be graded.

The fact that lights are on in Baghdad just speaks "we own you, bitch." Be confident.That's the spirit.

I wonder if they go from "night mode" to normal daylight on the camera?
I didn't view it yesterday.

It seems--
US will keep 24/7 hammering bombs until someone SCREAMS UNCLE in Iraq/Bagdad, or until the scattered anti-aircraft armory is done away with, so far no one has screamed surrender; maybe they should have taken lessons from the French it would save us all alot of pain......
Also, Bush needs to secure areas of Chem/Bio. His whole case against Saddam was built around that. So far no info. on specific areas of Chem/Bio. I'm looking to hear that info. also.....
To: Cboldt
Yeah, thanks for the clarifying comment...
Stretegic sections of Bagdad blew up real good just didn't flow...:-)
To: killjoy
If France keeps their crap up they may have another chance for the worlds record surrender this time at our hands....
To: killjoy
True that.
To: lavrenti
I hope that you are correct.
But remember, Bush was pulling away in the polls a few days before the 2000 election...

Defeated soldiers
A hand out image released by the Royal Navy on March 21, 2003 shows British Royal Marine troops of Delta Company 40 Commando evacuating Iraqi prisoners (faces intentionally obscured on instruction of Britain's Ministry of Defense) during operations on the al-Faw peninsula of Iraq (news - web sites). Britain's Prime Minister Tony Blair (news - web sites) stated on Friday that the war in Iraq is going well but British forces will meet resistance and victory will not come overnight. (Editor's Note: The faces of Iraqi prisoners of war have been intentionally blurred at the request of the British Ministry of Defense to comply with Geneva Convention considerations.)
Why does Reuters block out Brit pow's for Geneva Convention purposes but not USA pow's
To: knak
Damn, stop that! I'm home alone!
