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...

Saddam's "modern day" hero is Stalin. His tunnels are based on the designs of Hitler's.

U.N. inspectors couldn't find a chem plant in 12 years. Our 'jarheads' found this one in 96 hours. Great job guys!

Foxnews: UN inspectors "unaware" of this WMD facility

I'm shocked...simply shocked! [/sarcasm]

[GOPyouth]

Deeply saddened.

Relax. Fox News doesn't report anything unless they get clearance from the Pentagon.

The Pentagon trusts them. They even went to the Fox News booth to view the POW tape today when the story first broke.

If they're reporting it, it's because the DOD wants it out. Whether to make the Iraqi's nervous or it's disinfo...who knows. But they aren't reporting anything out of school.

[not-alone]

ON Meet the Press Don Rumsfeld said that the TV is still on because of civilians near by , warned citizens they should not be near communication and power facilities in the future because we may have to take them out.
