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, mhking for the video links, and, of course, Belly Girl...

BOOOM... 2 explosions.

[Timeout]

Where did you see the news of the dismembered bodies?
I haven't heard or read it anywhere but here.

[Dog]

Thanks just got back ....listen to the explosions on the webcam...

[GOPyouth]

MSNBC cable has their audio up for teh cable folks.

[Aggie Mama]

I don't think I can take much more of this in regard to the press. I am filled with such hatred for these people, that it is unhealthy.

Can you tell me more about the footage from the Pentagon press conf.?

[Lauratealeaf]

I just re-registered with the online site. Thanks for reminding me!

Cool! Hugh Hewitt is now writing for them and he is an outstanding writer!

[Dog]

Listen to the deep thumps......that sounds like a B-52 dropping on the RG..

[Dog]

Man.....this is the worse I have heard in BAG in a long while..

Yesterday,according to Fred Barnes of Fox News, Moran hit a new low, when he asked Ari " shouldn't the Iraqis who shoot the women and children in the back, be considered patriots?"

If that's what the pressitutes think patriotism really is, that explains much, doesn't it?

[Sacajaweau]

Info on B-52. They're work horses? Can you tell me what they drop. What plane does carpet bombing??

[Straight Vermonter]

The 1425 update of the sitrep map shows the Hammurabi and Medina divisions reduced to brigade strength. I sure would like to know where his info is gathered from.

[GOPyouth]

They can carry cruise-missiles, dumb bombs, smart bombs, nukes. The BUFFs can do carpet bombing along with the B1.

[Dog]

Hear that sound on the webcam...that sounds like a B-52......I believe they can drop up to 70,000 lbs of bombs on a target....each bomber.

[Green]

It has been mentioned on and off throughout the day on both MSNBC and Fox. Brett Baer also talked about it a little while ago while giving an update from the Pentagon.

[Straight Vermonter]

Click on my name and then click on the B-52 video to see carpet bombing by BUFFs.

[Socratic]

I wouldn't know how to go about it, but I think it would be informative for Free Rep. to have a section of articles, etc. by our members which make it into print.

[Green]

I haven't noticed that there has been any reporting from the embedded reporters today. Have I just not been paying attention or has it been quiet?

[Dog]

B-52's...

[mware]

Reports that the Republican Guards are the focus of bombing raids.

[GOPyouth]

Nice blast on Foxnews just now.
