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 Null and Void for keeping these threads running on the weekends, Mo1 for the screamer, the AdminMods for their tolerance, mhking for the video links, Ragtime Cowgirl for her Exclusive Live Transcription Service™, Fledermaus for his 15 minutes of fame, and, of course, Belly Girl...

[TexasNative2000]

It takes no intelligence to rule by terror - just an evil heart.

[Consort]

He's dead again, Jim.

[crobnson]

Gee this isn't fair. I am going to have to go to bed pretty soon so I can get up for work. Just as things are getting exciting. Anybody know of a really good online radio that covers the war really good?

[oceanview]

Dennis Ross on Fox now saying he does not believe Saddam would be at such a location, at such a large meeting. I hope we didn't conduct this strike based on just an unverifiable iraqi tip, it may have been a setup to get us to bomb a civilian location.

[Robert A Cook PE]

I need to add that the Nerve gasses ARE pesticides: That why and how they KILL BIGS. The Nazi's just happen to discover that these gasses also kill people quickly and cheaply.

(They also kill people the same way they kill bugs: By interfering with the nerve impulses and transmissions between nerve cells chemically.)

BUT = Ask your "friend" why these massive amounts (tons of nerve agents and mustard gasses and toxins) were discovered in an Army base, behind bunkers and in tanks below newly poured concrete in children's playgrounds, with the loading equipment to transfer these liquids into chemical tanks - ATTACHED to rockets.

Sure, they are pesticides. How were the Iraqi's going to USE them as pesticides if they were stored on an army base?

Why would the Iraq's store their newest army missiles in a "innocent commercial" chemical plant, if that chemical plant were not linked to to the empty tanks in the missile warheads?

[The Wizard]

been away all day.....I see I return at a fortuitous time....

[Catspaw]

2 p.m. Qatar time, 3 p.m. Baghdad time.

Ross thinks that Saddam wouldn't meet with more than 10 people at a time. He is somewhat skeptical.

[dogbyte12]

Ready for an all nighter? You put on the popcorn, I will brew some coffee. Anybody wanna make some rice krispy squares?

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

Re. #5452 - good post! TheLion, I don't know about Bag Cam distances, but umbagi makes a good point. BBs penetrate...rumble, may not have registered w/ all the tanks coming into town and the excitement over the Greg Kelly palace interviews.

Keep hope alive :-).

Amen.

[Think free or die]

""Sometime between 83 and 87 I believe " THEN IT WAS MY PROJECT!!!"

Well done! At least in this case you learned the ultimate purpose of your work. If you were working on classified projects, I suspect there are other projects for which you never had this kind of gratification. It must be a good feeling.

If you're working on implantable pacemakers now, you may have helped a young lady from our community. She recently had a pacemaker implanted after struggling with cardiac problems since birth. She's about 21. Thank you for your work!

[Cboldt]

I am sitting here telling myself that Saddam has been alive all this time, running this war for Iraq. I am NOT impressed.

I am. He kept millions of people under his thumb.

Now if we can get US out from under the UN and EU . . . .

[Tree of Liberty]

We had at least 4 confirmations. Officials are calling the intel "very reliable".

[socal_parrot]

[justshe]

What "rest of the regime"......?

Without the top guys holding a gun to someone's head....it COULD be all over, couldn't it?

[piasa]

Looking at the fine texture of that rubble, and the depyj of the hole, I wouldn't be too much in a hurry to dig- no one is going to live through that anyway.

[Mrs.Liberty]

Do we know how many people were in this restaurant with him?

[cyberian_cartoon]

HAAAAAAAAhaaaaa....I'm dyin' here. Spit take on monitor!!

[crobnson]

Save some for me, can't pull an all-nighter tonight.

[brydic1]

Just go to bed with Fox TV on like I do. You will awake from time to time

[Mo1]

WOW ... are you seeing the pictures on FNC

DUST BABY .. if he was in there ... HE IS DUST!!!
