Please have mercy on us dial up limited FReepers! Limit the big graphics, post links instead. A brief description of what the graphic is would help: To all who helped this get started, thank you! Special thanks to null and void for keeping these threads running on the weekends, Mo1 for the screamer, the AdminMods for their tolerance, mhking for the video links, and, of course,...

The minister of disinformation has obviously not looked out how indow yet this morning :-)

[Nam Vet]

I agree......FR has been a life saver for our sanity.

[prairiebreeze]

CNN is prolly shaking in their boots at what the Iraqi Info Min said. They usually do.

I have a new theory. They are going to leave him on until they come right into the studio, arrest him, and announce a free Iraq over live video to the entire Arab world.

[commish]

LOL! Yesterday he said that our troops had not even crossed the Euphrates yet and that NO RG UNITS had suffered any casualties LOL!

[Dog]

What camera??

[Timeout]

...a life saver for our sanity

Hey! Speak for yourself!

[AppyPappy]

You have to wonder if people drive by that statue and mutter "Thanks a lot, icehole"

[Carolina]

When there is firefights going on in Baghdad yet your Minister of Disinformation says its a lie that US is on outskirts of city, who, in their right mind, would believe this boob?

Um, those with left minds: BBCCBSNBCABC, etc.

[Miss Marple]

Off to do yard work for a while. Baghdad will probably fall while I am transplanting perennials.

[commish]

I'm expecting his next announcement to be .. "Do not pay attention to the man at the door with the M-16. There are no troops in baghdad or even in Iraq -- this has actually all been an exercise. yeah that's it, an exercise. Gotta go now Buhbye."

[Miss Marple]

LOL! Now, I must really epart for a bit. Rain expected this afternoon.

[TomGuy]

I have both CBS (realplayer) and MSNBC (msplayer) open, so not sure which one the sound is actually coming from.

[smith288]

Um, those with left minds: BBCCBSNBCABC, etc.

Well, as long as Iraqis stay skeptical inside the privacy of their own homes, i dont care what this cerebral lacking "man" says.

[AppyPappy]

Our troops can march through the city and the residents will never suspect a thing. Yeah, right.

[Chemist_Geek]

The minister of disinformation has obviously not looked out how indow yet this morning :-)

No windows in an underground bunker? *grin*

[AppyPappy]

AAAUGGGHHH!! on the CBS Bagcam. It's a monster!!!!

[commish]

It is amazing to me to see these people going about their normal daily routines. Bombings every night, obvious signs that the city is coming under siege, and yet at times like this it looks like a normal day in any city in the world.

One has to wonder -- are they too scared of the regime to make it look like they are concerned? Do they just not care? Or has the info we have been sending out actually gotten to them, and do they feel that they are not threatened by our troops as long as they are not part of the regime?

RUN AWAY!!! RUN AWAY!!!
