Good Morning.

This is the Daily Thread of Operation Iraqi Freedom - LIVE THREAD.

It is designed for general conversation about the events of the day. In depth discussion of events should be left to individual threads - but links to the threads or other articles is highly encouraged. This allows us to stay abreast of the situation in general, while also providing a means of obtaining specific information.

Please have mercy on us dial up limited FReepers! Limit the big graphics, post links instead. A breif description of what the graphic is would help:

To all who helped this get started, thank you!

Special thanks to An.American.Expatriate for staring the daily threads, Mo1 for the screamer, the AdminMods for their tolerance, and, of course, Belly Girl...

evidently you can't be a muslim and be a good FBI agent..because there has been one guy that has refused at least twice to tape muslim suspects and one of them ended up being arrested - the professor

[texxie]

amen and well stated:)

I sure do miss my friday nights live with Dennis....

[glock rocks]

he was shot in the leg.

i'd be putting the first responders back in target practice as well.

[Dolphy]

Maybe I just don't want it to be because of Muslim reasons, because them some twisted f*ck might see him as some kind of hero...I'd rather it was because he was just some random violent dipsh*t.

I agree with you. Christians who kill in the name of their religion don't identify the sum total of the faithful. The man was crazed, even the reports are that he was acting odd in the days before. Who knows, maybe he melted down and fell victim to whatever voices he heard in his head.

MSNBC just backpedaled on the 2nd soldier report. Criminey! I gotta get some rest. I can't be certain of what I'm hearing any more.

Night all.

true....very true...

Army
101st is Army, from Ft Cambell KY

[killjoy]

Would be a shame if he got in the way of a Moab....not.

What about strapping him to it and letting him ride it in Slim Pickens style?

[glock rocks]

bump.

[austex]

I'm disgruntled with CNN - think I can throw grenades in their newsroom *sigh*

[SoldiersGirl]

sad but true....violence is violence, and it sucks in every form.

[demnomo]

Only if you are an Islamofascist.

[Poser]

Anybody reload .223? I think I'm about to start. The Russian stuff is cheap, but shoots a 3" group at 100 yards.

It's darn hard to hit a dime with this ammo. I'm just going to have to load my own.

[Dianna]

I love FNC's cute little purple tanks. Makes me think of video games though.

[commish]

Sky News saying Possible Gas or Chem Warning in Umm Qasr firefight also!!!

[SoldiersGirl]

I wish they would stop saying heavy action in the next few hours...I'll never be able to drag myself away from here.

[austex]

hmmm - I guess that would be counter to my decidedly right wing protestant background....I'll just have to listen to them butcher the news

[SoldiersGirl]

reminds me of RISK
