Operation Iraqi Freedom
This thread is dedicated to the brave men and women of the
Armed Forces of the United States of America.
"Wish You Were Here"
For all the free people that still protest.
You're welcome. We protect you and you are protected by the best.
Your voice is strong and loud,
but who will fight for you? No one standing in your crowd.
We are your fathers, brothers, and sons,
wearing the boots and carrying guns.
We are the ones that leave all we own,
to make sure your future is carved in stone.
We are the ones who fight and die,
We might not be able to save the world, Well, at least we try.
We walked the paths to where we are at
and we want no choice other than that.
so when you rally your group to complain,
take a look in the back of your brain.
In order for that flag you love to fly
wars must be fought and young men must die.
We came here to fight for the ones we hold dear.
If that's not respected, we would rather stay here.
So please stop yelling, put down your signs,
and pray for those behind enemy lines.
When the conflict is over and all is well,
be thankful that we chose to go through hell.
Corporal Joshua Miles and all the boys from 3rd Battalion 2nd Marines,
Kuwait 3/9/2003

Good Morning.
This is the Daily Thread of Operation Iraqi Freedom - Situation Room - LIVE THREAD.
It is designed for general conversation about the events of the day.

Please have mercy on us dial up limited FReepers! Limit the big graphics, post links instead. A brief description of what the graphic is would help! If you post graphics, please "size" them so that our browsers continue to load the rest of the thread!

C.A.N.S.W.E.R. is having another nationwide anti-War protest this weekend.
I wonder if those idiots want to bring back the Fedayeen? Or put all those children back in prison?
There was no need for a war. This could've been done by negotiations.
To: Straight Vermonter
Wait, do you want a tank in the plaza, or do you want to *get tanked* in the plaza? ;-)

Yesterday. CNN (yeah, I know. But CNN and BBC are the only English news TV I can get here in Europe). U.N. correspondent, the guy with the long droopy face, had a curbside interview with him. When asked who was in control in Iraq, combover said something like, "the Iraqi government," avoiding the the name of SH.

What about our 7 POWs? I assume they weren't taken north.
I'm surprised none of the RG EPW's had no info about their location. Maybe, hopefully, something will happen today.
To: Kip Lange
Can't we do both?

One of the military guys on Fox said that they're probably in the Western part of Baghdad, which is still contested.
