I heard that the brits took the 'peninsula' anyone know if that includes Basara?
I'm glad to see Rita Cosby too. Although she seems a little to anxious for the start of the 'shock and awe'.
I love ya Rita but with defections and surrenders you just talked about. It would be nice if we could complete this operation without setting Bagdad in flames.

Some of them at the beginning of the tape were in uniform

There's not much to describe. Just some Iraqi's holding white flags walking with their hands up and being frisked by British troops. Some are uniformed. One is wearing a hooded white sweatshirt. I feel totally sorry for them, I had heard a few weeks ago that many of them hadn't eaten in weeks & had old rusty guns. I know most of them DO NOT want to fight for Saddam! Maybe they'll get a meal now!

Sky News reporter in Brussels says relations between France and Britain are VERY bad. He said that even French journalists were snickering at British journalists. He ended with "The European Union is in deep, deep trouble."
To: The Wizard
Any idea of the number of Iraqi's which have already surrendered? I know someone said earlier that an entire division had already surrendered.
To: thedugal
