LOL

Those are high velocity cracks, like a tank from say 6 blocks or maybe half a mile away or less.

Ok, so was he at a home or a restaurant? I find it hard to believe he'd be in a restaurant!

[TheLion]

Taking pictures...hey, this was history, he can sell the pics. Just my 2 cents.

[Sacajaweau]

Excellent point.

[Abigail Adams]

Are they showing footage of the bombed out area on TV? Please describe for the cable-less. Thanks!

[GOPyouth]

Rita's back up.

[Mo1]

LOL ... to John Gibson's question about not targeting residental areas

Gen McNannery ... Sorry John .. we changed the rules

[Consort]

They may only find a cadaver-double.

[oceanview]

seriously though, why not take a tank column and drive it right to that bombing location, right now, and seize that area?

[Hunble]

My wife has only one wish:

To have Special Forces place an American Flag in the extended hand of Saddam's statue for all the world to see.

Then use snipers to insure that nobody can remove that flag.

[kimmie7]

Good thinking.

[ztiworoh]

I believe they said we have guys there already

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

After reviewing the FR thread, I can't believe that any explosion this large occured between noon and 3PM Baghdad time. Freepers were monitoring the Bag Cams. You be the judge:

Pretty big explosion in Baghdad.

Large explosions near Cams... Tank fire?

That's pretty much it. Even with a medium-sized bomb we get at least 6 BOOM! posts. Hmmm...

The ~12:22 PM EST explosions were much bigger.

[Lauratealeaf]

LOL! Freudian I guess.

Prairie

It was a perfect descriptive word! So cool!

[Consort]

Light traffic on the webcam....no jobs left to drive to.

[POGIFFMOO]

Could be the sound of Saddam 'raining' over Baghdad.

[Howlin]

I can hear it now: Bush LIED to us...........LOL.

[Dolphy]

There was a wild and crazy (but quite intriguing) theory on the live thread last night that delusional Baghdad Bob is actually our inside source. His "act" is his cover.

I missed that theory, but the thought crossed my mind. Word is you don't stay in Saddam's circle by telling him the truth or filling him in on reality.

[mhking]

"we're talking dust." At the very best....little pieces.

Parts is parts...
