Iraq Weather & Maps - 04/07/03

[TomGuy]

We have put the ghost's of Vietman/Somilia to rest forever. Those countries and terrorists out there today will from this day forward....know that America will go into their cities and towns and root out evil.....we took it downtown today..

This is the greatest generation.

The kids today will fight....:-)

And we move further and further from the bad policies of the Clinton Legacy. The era of Clinton is sinking further and further into an historical footnote. President George W. Bush is soon to have liberated a second nation. Roughly 25 million Afghanis are free now. Soon roughly 25 million Iraqis will also be free. Quite a legacy!

>>>>He then asked. "Why is it that we have to speak English in these conferences rather than you have to speak French?" ...Without even hesitating, the American admiral replied: "Maybe it is because we arranged it so that you did not have to learn to speak German?"

Thanks, I fired that quote right off to some family members. What a great retort.

That's what I was thinking when I saw it. Showers for everyone!

Scott Ritter:

Former United Nations weapons inspector Scott Ritter believes the government's reasons for going to war in Iraq are unfounded. Ritter, speaking Friday night at Pomona College, said the U.S. went to war based on assumptions that Iraq has chemical, biological and nuclear weapons, which he believes Iraq does not possess.

Former naval intelligence analyst Jonathan Pollard confessed to passing classified documents to Israel without authorization between 1981 and 1985. For this, he was rightly sent to prison for espionage. People who spy for allied countries and who spare the U.S. government the revelations of a trial usually get sentences averaging four years. What extraordinary things, then, must Pollard have done to draw a life sentence?

Alger Hiss was right about Hitler, but he was still a treasonous SOB.

As was Pollard.

"For your information, the Israelis used Pollard to obtain our attack plan against the U.S.S.R. all of it. The coordinates, the firing locations, the sequences. And for guess who? The Soviets."

Ok, so, can I ask, are our guys still in Baghdad, or have we left the city again?

[Mjaye]

Brit Hume just said that the information minister (Baghdad Bob) was a walking Saturday Night Live skit. He must have been reading FR, we talked about that last night.

INFO and PRAYER REQUEST:

I'd like to ask for you to lift up in prayer both the soldiers and family members of the HHD 2d BDE/ 3d ID while we wait for news regarding an incident earlier today (see Two US soldiers and two journalists killed in rocket attack south of Baghdad). I specifically would ask that you pray for a peaceful heart for one young wife whose husband is a member of the brigade TOC.

As you may know, Greg Kelly has been traveling in an armored command vehicle for the past few days. That vehicle is part of the brigade command post and this young lady's husband is in that vehicle. If you've watched any of Greg's video from the past few days, you've seen this young man without knowing who he was.

Due to the spotty reports coming out of Iraq, at this point we're unsure of his status. At the very least, if the reports are in any way accurate, men that he works with are dead and injured. This is weighing heavily on her and the other families at the moment.

There will be a prayer service for members of the unit tonight at Ft. Stewart while they wait for news. Your prayers this afternoon and evening would be appreciated.

If you should come across any press reports on this particular incident, please ping me. We're trying to get information through military channels but any information at this point would be useful.

I'm sure you'll understand that up until now I thought that imbedded reporting was a great idea. God forgive me for not seeing how much it impacts the families.

Well, it doesn't appear intervention is necessary, since you've brought yourself down to two exclamation points.

[An.American.Expatriate]

You have FreepMail!!

[Mo1]

Can I get an update on what's happened since noon???

It's past noon??

[Socratic]

That cuts to the core of the whole liberal agenda! Remember, a Socialist is merely a polite Communist.
