Am I the one one that thinks it amazing that I can watch this liberation from my laptop on RealPlayer?

And just think.....you have Al Gore to thank for that modern miracle.

They gave up on the rope - looks like a steel cable hooked up now.

The Marines should bring in a looped cable and install it with a CH-53 ! That rope is going to break.

I think they should do it themselves. Its symbolic and cathartic. Let Al-Jiz get a lot of shots of Iraqis doing it rather than US "conquerors."

He specifically stated that he would not have. He is way too "progressive" for such a unilateral cowboy move.

I think shots of dozens of Iraqis sitting n the US vehicle pulling it down is even better. US & Iraqis working together.

I wouldn't be surprised if some human shields aren't getting their butts kicked about now ... they are, after all, Saddam sympathisers ... probably not too popular around Bagdad about now.

I hope they allow some little Iraqi kid to pull the lever on the winch that brings "Ossymandius" down!
