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...

I would not degrade dogs by comparing them to the Fedayeen, rabid dogs IMO is more appropriate..

[Consort]

Saddam's hagiography is being written as we speak.

[Ecclesiasticus]

During the first Gulf War, Saddly Insein made it a point to be seen IN PUBLIC, shaking hands in the markets, smiling, firing a gun into the clouds.

Another Major Bob quote of the night regarding the "pause": We are preparing to go into a major battle. What does a butcher do before he slaughters a cow? He sharpens his knife. And that is what the troops are doing right now...sharpening their knives" perfect analogy, IMO

[Kadric]

Oh I know as I posted the other night we need this guy's head literally. Even if he is dead but we do not have the body just some DNA he will never be dead in some peoples eyes. The worse case would be we take over Iraq but never can produce him/ his positively IDed body, then every month or so someone just keeps popping up with a note or a tape that has been spliced together. Even if we produce the body there will be those that say it's not him.

Who's this moron on Fox saying that all the chem suits, atropine, and CW fighting manuals in Iraq are innocuous?

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

Before the butcher cuts up his meat, he sharpens his knife. - Major Bob, Michael Moore's worst nightmare. (^:

Good night, all.

[Henchster]

C'mon, they're not "Fedayeen," they're "Paramilitary Murder Squads."

In other words: P.M.S.

[Green]

That's what I remember him doing also.

[Terriergal]

Heck even rabid dogs are better. At least rabid dogs have a legitimate excuse.

[Tree of Liberty]

Fox - idiot stating that the 50 gallon drums probably didn't contain chemicals, thinks they contained oil.

[Green]

PMS has already been taken by that "other" tv station...giving it to another group now will cause me to get all kinds of confused.

[glock rocks]

affirm. sharpening knives.

g'nite, RC

[Terriergal]

Anyone else getting this distinctly surreal sensation that we are in the midst of a horror movie in which we have to fight hordes of evil shapeshifting creatures?

[Tree of Liberty]

Idiots name was Paul Walker. Either currently works, or used to work as a military attaché to the House Armed Services committee.

[Henchster]

This limp jerk is Dr. Paul Walker. I don't know what scum pond they caught him in, but they should have thrown him back straight away.

[merrin]

Fox - idiot stating that the 50 gallon drums probably didn't contain chemicals, thinks they contained oil.

Actually, he's got a point. Wouldn't you put the chemicals into the ordnance before you sent it to the troops?

[glock rocks]

are you referring to the iraqis or the press?

[Tree of Liberty]

I keep thinking "Army of Darkness"
