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...

Don't worry about it, that's not what s/he was talking about. S/he just woke up and was reading about us in Baghdad. That's what s/he was picking her jaw off the floor about.

If he had any sense at all he would have kept those three "CIA assets" and used themto buy safe passage to an island somewhere, instead of executing them. IF they really were CIA assets and not just more figments of his imagination.

im playing CBS cam in java window launched from their page and NTV in RP8 "always on top" . The building on the right of the CBS cam is on the left of the NTV one. Can see smoke rising from the S/SE and a lot of cars parked near the Ishtar Sheraton.

Dang .. I say something stupid didn't I .. didn't mean to .. I wasn't comparing the Americans to retards..

I was trying to explain the tanks driving around running red lights.

Oh hell .. I screwed up .. I am really sorry

Franking, Thousands of Puerto Ricans are in Iraq RIGHT NOW, Flying the US Flag.

Absolutely. Not trying to diss Puerto Ricans at all. I was just struck by the fact that the last time I saw packs of cars cruising slowly around city streets flying flags the size of a Volkswagen was during that benign and pretty joyous annual spontaneous street parade on Western.

Driving slowly waving a flag is not the tactic of secret police or besieged militias. It's something you see in a victory parade, whether for the Lakers or Yankees or your country.
