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...

Chem facility camoflaged so couldnt be seen from air
Me thinks that there are more such facilities that we don't know about

I could easily come up with a platoon of jarheads in my area to go pay a little visit to that town that ambushed the army support troops. Now THAT is a good idea.

Stalin, in WWII, had KGB agents in back of the Russian troops, with orders to machine gun anyone who turned and ran. I wouldn't be surprised if the same tactic is being used here.

Oh, shoot.
I hope the whole factory wasn't just a giant "bait" for killing a bunch of soldiers.

I think the action at Najaf and Nasiriah are flank protection. We have no need for those bridges despite what the media say.

Brett is saying is was covered with some kind of sheet metal colored to make it blend into the desert. when one of our guys pulled a piece off, a bomb went off and he was injured. i would hold off on declaring this the "mother lode" of WMD until more information comes in, it could just be a chemical factory.

But why are they fighting? Why? Don't they see the handwriting on the wall? Many reasons. Fear for most. Others believe they are on the right side, just as strongly as we believe we are on the right side.

My understanding is that at certain milestones the word goes out that they can announce progress. FOX did not say where they were they were saying that they couldn't say were the troops were but closer to baghdad

One station reported earlier today that the troops were seeing Iraqi troops with new gas masks, so that might have been one tip-off that these things were near.
