Judge for yourself based on the source whether you think it is credible or not...

USWAR/Uday suffers brain hemorrhage

Tehran, March 20, IRNA -- Uday, the elder son of Iraqi President Saddam Hussein, struck by brain hemorrhage following conflict with a member of Saddam's Fedayeen on Thursday. Mosuah al-Nahrain in its website on Thursday quoted sources north of Iraq as saying that very tough and indecent orders, issued by Uday, who heads Saddam's Fedayeen, had provoked the conflict as the young man attacked Uday. Uday's bodyguards then beat the man to injury. The website declined to give further comments. BG/AR End

LOL! Brian Williams:

"That's the difference at THIS White House. The former occupant just couldn't pass up the opportunity to talk to reporters. This president--when he says 'Thank you very much', he means it."

PLEASE

Would one of you give me a brief overview of the action? Is "Shock and Awe" underway? Ground troops engaged?

I've been away from TV and computer for about 3 hours and, believe me!, this is the only place to be.

Not entirely true, in the mid-70s, when we had lots of radar, the old methods were still taught, especially for use when you couldn't light up your radar -- I did some serious gaming in a black vault in which I was a threat commander in a well-known theater. We took out most of the TPQ-36 and other counterbattery radar early on almost every time.

I always thought it would be useful for the boys and girls to learn the old methods except hasty crater analysis, which I thought was just a SWAG.
