Greg at Pentagon - no official comment from them at this time. Huey and Cobra are taking part in fight. Looks to be on a response from Marines not a push. Negotiations continue.

Heathrow was apparently false alarm and involved an incident at El AL counter in terminal One.

Sometimes Sky is a bit to fast with their breaking news.

Geez, as if your day as a trapped insurgent isn't going badly enough with helos and AC-130s, imagine having to peek out the window (and praying there are no snipers nearby) and see those heading toward you. Ouch!

EVACUATION AT HEATHROW


Heathrow Airport's Terminal 1 has been partially evacuated, according to reports.

A suspect package has been found by the check-in counter for the Israeli airline El Al.


A spokesman for British airports operator BAA said: "A small section of the check-in, including part of the El Al desk, has been closed off while we check an unattended bag."

No, waching the broadcast on TV, but the incident apparently only involved terminal one, and it is now cleared up.

Do the Marines get stuck with all the old equipment??? Cobras and Hueys are VN-era stuff. IMHO, the Marine pilots could teach the Army Apache pilots a few things about flying/fighting in an urban environment.

Trying to avoid harming innocent civilians. Enemies using train station to fire at Marines. Marines called in gunships to blast enemies. No ground fire returned. Seems to have been effective. When all out offensive begins we will know it.

They're following in the model of Hamas, Islamic Jihad, al Qaeda, etc.
