It seems to have begun. Go to this link: http://www.msnbc.com/m/mw/mw.asp?t=V&id=live_video/chan1&sk=live_video&pl=&name=cover&opt=0 and turn up your volume. You can hear what sounds like planes (who knows, maybe its missles) flying overhead, then you hear what sounds like bombs going off in the distance. This just began about 10 minutes ago, it has been totally quiet.

That was incredible!

Starting again.....war in realtime

[killjoy]

Does anyone know how to record the live streams off the computer?

[Lancey Howard]

I thought the opening salvo was supposed to be absolutely massive - - designed to stun everybody (and hopefully make somebody close to Saddam simply kill him and end the whole fiasco.)

[agrace]

This is messed up, watching a war on TV and on the internet.

[wimpycat]

They didn't just razz the sirens.

There were TWO rounds of BOMBS DROPPING!

It's quiet for the moment.

We're listening and watching MSNBC's webcam.

I can hear AAA in the distance. Sporadic.

Arabian Automobile Association?

[wimpycat]

Just heard a car horn honk.

[CyberAnt]

Excuse me ... didn't the WH say the President would speak from the Oval Office at the start of the war.

[kcvl]

Pres. Bush will speak at 10:15...

[FrogMom]

Hugs to all FReepers.

Join hands, pray for our brothers, sisters, sons, daughters, husbands and wives.

Lord bless them, their leaders, and their missions.

[Poser]

The news reports are that the US had some information about the possible location of some Iraqi leaders. These missles might have had a very limited target.

[wimpycat]

Anti-Aircraft Artillery. The tracer fire you see will be from AAA.

[Prince Charles]

"congrats to ari ,thats the best he has ever handled the press"

Yeppers! Helen Thomas didn't even have time to haul that big ass up out of her chair to diss Dubya!

[DarthFuzball]

Heard and saw the same thing here.

[Sweet_Sunflower29]

Well, I can't speak for anyone else, but I'll tell you...my stomach is in absolute knots tonight.

Ugh.

[kcvl]

The war has begun according to Shep Smith on Fox News...Pres. Bush will tell us at 10:15 what is going on.

[wimpycat]

bump. Two rounds of bombs dropping somewhere and AAA fire in the distance.

[coloradan]

Ahhh, thanks. I thought it was just "AA" (anti aircraft) fire.
