[history]
July 14, 2003 -- U.S. forces in central Iraq have launched a stepped-up nighttime push to hunt down diehard Saddam Hussein loyalists responsible for a series of bloody attacks on American troops.
Soldiers participating in Operation Ivy Serpent over the weekend killed at least four suspected Iraqi terrorists who opened fire on Army scouts near the town of Baqouba.

American fliers attacked rebels with AC-130 gunship helicopters........ Cynthia, Cynthia, Cynthia. Your editors aren't doing their jobs. An AC-130 is a largish fixed-wing aircraft, not a helicopter.

I doubt the NYT, the AP, or the Washington Compost give this much ink. It doesn't fit in with their agenda. They want TET. Repeat after me: 'We are stuck in a Vietnam quagmire'. Repeat this verbal chant five times, and you will be in harmony with news broadcasts for the rest of the week.

The audio was accompanied by a picture of an unidentified white-bearded man wearing a turban who warned that a new attack on the United States would come in the next few days, and it would "break the back of America completely."Bagdad Bob! He's back!!

"It doesn't fit in with their agenda."
My son who is in Nasiryah has found this out. There was a BBC reporter doing a live radio broadcast about the damage done by the evil Americans. In his eyes the city was destroyed when the reality was there was very little combat damage. The damage was significant only because he didn't have a camera which would show only some 50 cal bullet damage.
ON the radio this AM I heard that the press is asking about Iraq, "Is it Indiana yet?"

YUP!
And fuzzy too at WIDTH="100%"
Like the "Raiders" music link?
Size does get one's attention.
Wish I could get my JavaScript "mouseover" HTML Tag Codes & audio URLs to work and turn on my FR post BG music automatically......
Have to check on that, that would be neat and subtle touch.
Could not find a short "LOOP"(ing) C-130 video with "mouseover" aircrat sounds I could punch in but have one in my notebooks of a fying saucer flying in from the distance that will post on email and on websites.
I do know of a few small aircraft .wav files, but none of the big monsters or jet fighters.
Thanx, you gave me some good ideas!
I have an old HS and Gator buddy who works Honeywell, he has lotsa Boeing .jpgs and .gifs, he would know and have access to dynamite military aircraft video and audio stuff -
I'll email him and get his reply by tommorrow.
