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...

I keep seeing this report: "Iraqi forces given orders to use Chem weapons."

Any detail on the source of that?

The Pentagon reported this about 3-4 hours ago. They have intel that the RG has been ordered to use CW on us once we pass the "red line". The distance to the red line wasn't disclosed, but the Fox reporter said that there are maps throughout the Pentagon that have a red circle around Baghdad.

I am in Western Michigan and haven't seen anything like that, although I rarely watch local television.

I saw this on another board it's from news24.com which appears to be down at the moment.

Islam's rules for POWs 24/03/2003 18:26 - (SA)

London - Prisoners of war in Iraqi hands will be treated in accordance with "the teachings of Islam," Iraq's Foreign Minister Naji Sabri told the BBC on Monday.

Sabri, in Egypt to rally Arab governments against what he called US and British "colonialism, neo-colonialism and war," said Islamic principles took precedence over the Geneva Convention.

"First of all, we are committed to the teachings of Islam. We are faithful Muslims. We take care of our prisoners of war in accordance with our teachings of Islam," he told BBC radio's The World At One program.

"We are committed first of all to the teachings of Islam, and second we are committed to the conventions of Geneva in dealing with the prisoners of war," he said.

"We are the people who created law when the grandfathers of Mr Blair and Mr Bush (British Prime Minister Tony Blair and US President George W Bush) were living like animals in the caves," he said.

Sabri left Baghdad under heavy bombardment to travel via Syria to the Egyptian capital Cairo where the 22-nation Arab League was meeting to try and reach consensus over the US-led invasion to oust Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein.

He spoke to the BBC amid US and British outrage that five captured US soldiers had been shown on Iraqi television in a weekend broadcast that also included footage of four US corpses.

Sabri would not comment on military tactics, except to claim that the latest situation was "excellent."

Also you can obscure NVGs with simple smoke. Can't do that to a thermal imager, it sees through smoke....unless you got the right smoke ;) The "right" smoke has an added component that will obscure even thermal viewers.
