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...

Oliver North's reporting.

I know he's due up....don't think he's reported in yet, unless I missed him....t.v.'s on other side of wall, separating my computer from it....so I miss things when I'm on here.....(darn)

Fox - Greg reports that they've met heavy resistance every step of the way. Alot of destroyed enemy vehicles. Coming off of offramps. Secondary explosions from fuel and/or ammo. breaking up. Going through industrial complex. One-two story buildings. Signal lost.

He bought into the propaganda that we hadn't made it any farther north than Najaf.

These poor people have been so brainwashed into not being allowed to think for themselves or know any truth....it's pitiful, really.

No joking...In the more built up camps, they have a community bathroom, it's a long box (inside a wood type room) with holes cut in the top...the guys sit so close together when they poop they even share the newspaper. The urinal is right next to the poop box (poop, I have kids, can you tell?) that if you look to your right you have a shlong in your face.

I don't even like to pee in a public bathroom.

BWAHAHAHAHHA!

Rick is reading the stamps on buttons on an Iraqi uniform he found.

One said "Oklahoma 1907".

Another says "FRENCH TOAST"

LOL!

I think he said they're holding position until all the LAV's are pulled out of the mud. They're wheeled vehicles, which is one of the main criticisms of the design.

Some are just stupid enough to believe the lies that we are not there.

I feel sorry for them....they've not been allowed to think any thoughts other than what is allowed; they cannot question authority....so, after awhile, your spirit dies...and you don't care about discerning truth...because knowing truth may be more of a torture than believing the lies.
