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...

I think you're right. This is a moving screen saver.

And thankfully, I'm late to the game!

Yah, it just amazes me. I mean, I could take this webcam feed and use it as a background clip "daily city life" and you'd have no idea there was a war going on in the same city at all. Everyone's acting perfectly normal, driving around in little circles, getting in and out of cars . . .it's like we're watching one baghdad and they're living in another, completely different baghdad somewhere else. I've seen enough disasters to know how people react to them . .they run! geesh!

Greg Kelly's unit came up on the freeway from the south, rolled through the southwest side of Baghdad, brushed just to the west of the Tigris River(where it loops to the west and Baghdad U.), and then west into the airport. Faced regular but moderate resistance. About 4 hours ago Ollie had entered Baghdad from the southeast on the east side of the Tigris river, other units are advancing from the southeast(arnot's unit) and still facing some firefights. Best I can tell, a unit went east from the airport towards Saddam's palace/ruling complexes in the center city on the west bank of the Tigris.

Why does MSNBC always interrupt and go to commercial right when their correspondant is giving out new, dramatic, and breaking info?
