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:

Special thanks to null and void for keeping these running over the weekend and Monday, to all of you for keeping these threads alive, the AdminMods for their tolerance, mhking for the video links, and, of course, Belly Girl...

If Iraqi TV center is really comingled with a day care center, why not use one of our fancy new EMP bombs?

[Abigail Adams]

"NBC reporting that finding full chemical weapons protective suits is disturbing, as these are usually issued to people who are going to use the weapons. That may mean the Iraqis were planning to use WMD against civilian populations in Basra..."

This is just something that Brokaw was talking to one of their military commentators about. It has been reported that we've found full chem suits, some in a hospital in one of the southern cities. They were speculating on the meaning of it all.

Crossing Over with John Edwards

[Sacajaweau]

The storm almost looks like part of the strategy. It came at a time when the troops need the rest for the next push and a chance for us to pick up more intelligence before the big drive.

[Dog]

What about the jammer??

[StriperSniper]

500 pounder on tank bye-bye

I don't think the running guy was fast enough.

[prairiebreeze]

Agreed about the storm letting the troops rest and re-supply.
