How did they get their heads oughtta Saddam's ass long enough to leave?

[Beck_isright]

Well, that's a reach also. Alot of them would go off, so don't buy that trojan horse, we didn't test these things for 40 years to have a bunch of duds! But we will ONLY use nukes if they hit us with nukes. I just can not see that happening.

Less than 15 knots and overcast. Will leave about a 2 acre footprint from an artillery shell.

I'd be surprised if they didn't use them. Their backed in a cornor. Desperation will force them to use chemical weapons and validate U.S. charges. Our military is prepared for this. Civilians there will not be prepared.

[Hillary's Lovely Legs]

Does anyone know the difference between a Tank and a Bradley?

[cajungirl]

Hon, they all look the same to me,,big old vehicles with big ole guns.

[briant]

Maybe they are simply trying to cause civilian panic.

[mikegi]

What is the range of the Iraqi chem-enabled artillery? I could see them sitting in buildings at the outskirts of Baghdad then rolling them out for a coordinated barrage, then hiding them again.

[mhking]

we gotta nuke em and there are civilians.But war is war.

Ain't gonna happen, WMD or not.

[Beck_isright]

It's the mule and grunt in me that makes me bullheaded. This is a time when my friends and my friend's sons and daughters are in the middle of the s**t as it is called. This will not be pretty. I just hope that our country doesn't get the CNN squimies if we incur one or two thousand casualties in the coming weeks. This is the nut of the entire war, let's finish it and get our boys repositioned; and people, get it straight...they are not coming home after this.

Bradley's are armored personnel carriers for carrying anywhere from 6-10 troops into battle. M1A1's are the large tanks with the 120mm cannon. If I were any good at linking, I'd show ya some pics and explain it better!

What exactly is "Chatter" ?

[Mike Darancette]

Hmmmm...and why was Al Jazeera kicked out of the country?

Getting rid of witnesses.

[Beck_isright]

If the reports are right, soem units are in range as of today.

One senior official described the chatter as "terrorist electronic and internet
intercepts"

[nagdt]

Call me blonde but I say we bomb every mosque in Iraq. You know and I know that's where they're stashing everything they need for counter attacks. We've been way too informative about being "sensitive" to the religion and it's buildings. Screw them. If Saddam is alive, he's living in a Mosque with his henchmen because he knows we won't go there because it's political suicide for us to bomb the mosques.

I think the military should either bomb the damn mosuqes or invade them.

My 2 cents.

[cajungirl]

We know Hitler got at least 6 million and probably alot more.
