Did anyone get hurt or killed? (Apart from the suicide bomber, that is?)

Unclear, darling. It could be that they shot him as he was trying it on.

Love, Ivan

Centcom is coming up..we'll hear more. The way they were fighting was suicidal when we came into eastern Baghdad but if you're guarding an airport a suicide bomber could work.

Ivan,

Horrible news.

I was just watching CNN. Their only report was video of Arabs, literally crying in tears before the camera--because allied soldiers are "searching our women, touching their very skin! Shameful!"

Uhh, stop the homicide bombing and maybe we'll ease up there pal.

Oh dear. I'm afraid we can expect more of this as we work to annihilate this evil. Prayers for our soldiers. They must be exhausted.

Here's my question - the 4th Infantry was supposed to be steaming into Kuwait - where are they now?

Thank you for this post, and for all the work you do to post the news each day. I read all your pings, but seldom have the time (or the circumstances) to reply to your pings.

FNC promising a report on this situation in minutes.

These dickheads are finding out that it is different to be a homicide bomber when the target shoots back, eh?

I think so. It may seem tedious, but I think our troops know what to do. I think the Bradleys and their 25mm automatic weapons will come in handy here more than ever!

types of 25mm rounds
