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...

OH S#$%!!! Forgot all about my family!! They must be hungry!

[Green]

aww we don't have grocery delivery here anymore. We did for awhile and I got really spoiled. Then they quit.

[Nam Vet]

Not what I had in mind, but you ARE correct about that boob.

When I read and hear about innocent Iraqis happy to see us. EPWs, for crying out loud, HAPPY to be prisoners of the coalition!

I have read so very many stories about disappearances during the night, never to be seen again, tongues cut out and left to bleed to death (even just this week), public hangings, rape, suspending naked women upside down while menstruating, executions, public and otherwise, then, the discovery this a.m. of hundreds of coffins....and this is just the tip of the iceberg of stories to hear....it makes me sick to think about.

[Dolphy]

I have a great setup at home too, but now there isn't any electricity there. I am waiting for the hotel check-in time and thinking about going to get a new laptop. This ice storm is getting to be expensive. Trees down, refrigerated food lost, most expensive hotel in town because they have room service and FNC and now maybe a new laptop:)

[EaglesUpForever]

We need to air drop Michael Moore over there, so they have a matching pair...

[nicmarlo]

OK, that does it! As soon as I can tear myself away from my computer, I'm going out to buy a little TV to set by my desk so I can read and watch at the same time.

OMG.....I've been thinking of doing the very same.....nooooooo, I'm not addicted to FR....

[Green]

My goodness....hope you don't have ice storms very often that result in loss of electricity. You'd go broke!

[knak]

ditto, it all reminds me of a movie I saw about the torture practices of Hitler. I cannot believe the UN and a lot of the world did not want to help these people! Horrific!

[cibco]

"I am anxiously awaiting"

That's what sheee said...

[knak]

nooooo = yeeees you are

[Green]

I am very curious about what the review of Iraq's financial records will disclose. I expect that might answer a lot of questions regarding why some were against this war (and in France's case, under any circumstances )

[glock rocks]

all hell's breaking loose on bagcam

[bornintexas]

Boy, that would be great to have grocery delivery! We live so far out in the sticks, we're lucky to have electicity. It took the phone co. 2 days to find us. Speaking of groceries...have to go get some. BBL

[Green]

is that car alarms going off on the bagcam?

[ztiworoh]

honestly, it's sadly not that ucommon in many countries

My mom works with a guy who is a political exile from china, he was involved in organizing the tienamin square protest, his dad was an anti-communist revolutionary who was killed by the communists, he has some awful stories to tell of his life in china

[Dawgmeister]

Bombs sirens again.

[knak]

I agree. France does not want anyone in Iraq. They're hiding something.

Is that wind noise?
