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 and keep it running, 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, Ragtime Cowgirl for her Exclusive Live Transcription Service™, and, of course, Belly Girl...

MSNBC military analyst was just speaking of the Special Ops forces, saying that they were "doing the Lord's work". Seemed to shake up the chirping anchorgal.

Everyone used to use the "V" sign to signify victory (especially popular during WWII). When it became the "peace" sign during the 60's and 70's it was an act of defiance by the slimy peaceniks. I say, it's about time we take it back from all of them!

Fox said in a little blurb that the Fedeyeen are appearing in the city streets today- the jerks with the black masks and so on.

Maybe those are the guys trying to run towards our forces in pickup trucks...

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?

Was wondering that myself, will Baghdad Bob make an appearance today or NOT??

WTF! I just saw a horse-and-buggy go by on the CBS cam!

Hearing a British accent saying "...it's amazing...Americans...[inaudible]" Sounds like a journalist filing a report. "Saddam Hussein...rescue...something going on..."

Not seeing your camera crew. See the SUV. Maybe they are directing traffic into the driveway there on the lower left...?
