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...

Is this the oscar thread?

[Cboldt]

Exxon and shell have pulled out of Nigeria

Others have noted that Nigeria is a good test for the UN. I wonder if our media is up to the task of covering it. Oh yeah, the US Senate has a judical confirmation or three in front of it too, how are those going? (BSEG)

Air raid sirens MSNBC Baghdad cam.

Confirmed - he was roundly booed for the remarks about the President and about the war. Sounded like more boos than cheers. It was hilarious!

(yeah, I'm watching - my sister is in the industry)

NBC news 'crawl' 10:15 pm EST just now says:

---101st Airborne Div. accused of killing 1 and wounding 13, is a Muslim. Changed his name from Mark Kools to Asman Akbar and opposes the war.--

Ah..........no.

[SoldiersGirl]

no, um, my friend called and told me, yeah..thats my story.

[Mo1]

What is that noise on the MSNBC Web cam??

[Wormwood]

Not an Oscar thread...but take your good news where you can. This was a small victory.

[ApesForEvolution]

A big fat Hollyqueer wins an Oscar and spouts off his stalinist Pro-Sodom mouth before an audience of dysfunctional elite? No way...

[Nexus]

All Clear Bagdad

[Anomaly in Illinois]

Sounded like the air raid sirens.

[merrin]

Is there nowhere I can go to escape the Oscars?

Fox News just had one of those bottom-of-the-screen thingies (what are those called?) that said that spec ops troops had found documents which could lead to WMDs.

[Mo1]

Yes, clearly and distinctly booed. It was inspiring.

I can't wait to see a clip of this

[gop212]

SoldiersGirl called me and told me.

[Anomaly in Illinois]

That was the all clear? When were the sirens?lol

I've been listening....

[Tree of Liberty]

Air raid sirens don't mean jack in Baghdad since we've taken out most of their radar facilities

[prairiebreeze]

I've been remembering too that the people in these towns don't have any information except what the Iraq govt. gives them. I just can't believe that they would prefer Saddamn to freedom and a better life.
