CBS Cam now has a whole bunch of journalists near the bottom of the screen (unless I'm imagining it). They appear to have their cameras focused in the opposite direction of the smoke, as if they are expecting something to come up the road. Of course, this could be just wishful thinking on my part.

NICE smoke.
Roughly 44°25'E and 33°20'N
In all caps on the UTexas map, BAB ASH SHAYKH just to the Northeast of this Square. It's the corner of Kuhlfafa and Yafa.

If it's really civies that are driving (as opposed to militia), I doubt they're doing it of their own volition.

CBS cam?
To: Howlin
All right, who wants to start a pool to bet when Baghdad Bob will appear on Iraqi TV with a Marine, SEAL or army grunt holding a gun to his head... or will he appear at all this morning?

To: BigFLPanhandleDude
ex-military guys on Fox have been using a fly by and they call "downtown" that point in the loop of the Euphrates, just south of where we've been bombing the RG, Pres Palaces, Baath HQ, etc.

I can feel the hairs on my neck rise up when I hear the ''ultimate sacrifice'' I hope I never become blaise about it.

You'll be right in saying TANKS BAGHDAD CAM in just awhile, it looks like!
To: HarryCaul
LOL!

He said that these unit have to be from the North. The General said that Saddam didn't trust them so he kept them out of Baghadad. He said that this is a final act of desperation.
If they even try to group up or move any equipment, we got them.

Wish they'd hurry. I'm dizzy from that round-about.
To: BigFLPanhandleDude
The guy on fox who was in Baghdad until a few weeks ago said that the major population center in Baghdad is really spread up and down the river (kind of like how L.A. is spread out). There's a geographic center, of course, but not really a population center.

That big bulbous-roofed mosque with the phallic minaret appears to be the center of town... there is also one of those traffic loops in front of it.

Not seeing these camera guys. Your CBS cam is looking at a traffic circle, Saddam statue in the middle, mosque and minaret on the left?
