Just getting back on after that rather exciting night last night. In regards to the sniper fire from the hotel. I just sat here and read through many, many posts. Between cracking up (you should try it some time, reading them slow you get all of the jokes), but anyways. I read through a time when we all were talking about flying bullets. Small arms fire, really close to the cameras. I do believe by our own exclusive blow by blow narration, that there was indeed a sniper at the hotel. High enough for all of us dedicated webcam viewers to say ow!! Anybody else here remember?

Don't remember, but methinks that's why the BagCams have no sound anymore.

Thinking the same thing. I heard several bursts of small arms fire in the hour before the tank hit that were very close to the camera. Those bursts were not from the west side the river, I am sure of that. The journalists need to realize Baghdad is a war zone and the risk to them must be born by them not coalition forces.

BTW: I think the 1st MEF is going to make its big push into the east side tonight. I bet we try to secure the Palestine as well tonight.
