[The Wizard]

Eagles Up: email this to eveyone you can

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

Still waiting, SG. Our top guys march to no one else's orders...the bad guys are squirming.

[Sacajaweau]

This info was all known before the shields went in. There are Iraqis in the US who will verify it. They are covering up the stupidity of going there in the first place. Who cares as far as I'm concerned.

Wasn't it night vision green though? Maybe the bad guys don't have night vision stuff?

Per Tony Snow, in Baghdad, the explosions have started (but not anything like yesterday.) Now they're showing the a-10 warthogs.

CNN: Bob Franken: swarms of planes are attacking 4 specific cities

I wish I did have her email address. I would LOVE to see her face as she reads that article!

[Fledermaus]

I heard THAT!! I love the eeire wind blowing by, kinda howling.

Is that car alarms going off?

[McGruff]

I remember in 1991 a bunch of those military dune buggys rolling into Kuwait city when it was liberated.

The interesting part was nobody had reported that we had them. They just showed up there.

[Dog]

Notice.....no anti-aircraft fire .....

We made them blind I think...

I hear a jet..

[Wphile]

What about the surrender talks? Are they occuring?

[The Wizard]

Baghdad is under attack?

[killjoy]

I think everyone is being too tough on that Iraqi guy. He needs the aid so he can open his mini-mart. How else can he prepare for his dream of moving to this country and opening a 7-11?

[floriduh voter]

Saddam had no dishes and now he has no breakfront to put them in. Here we go again in Baghdad. Strikes have begun.

[Anomaly in Illinois]

Yes, no one more evangalistic than a recent convert. *fingers crossed* Kudos for them having the honesty to admit they were wrong. I hope the video is broadcast far and wide.

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

LOL!

SkyNews reporter upset that he didn't see our bombs coming. Surprise!

[SoldiersGirl]

sky news reporter.. "If I were them I'd get back inside"

Ha...now thats good advice for the day.

[Dog]

Plane overhead now.....making bombing runs it sounds like.

snip from story - now this is funny!

>>> A group of American anti-war demonstrators who came to Iraq with Japanese human shield volunteers made it across the border today with 14 hours of uncensored video, all shot without Iraqi government minders present. Kenneth Joseph, a young American pastor with the Assyrian Church of the East, told UPI the trip "had shocked me back to reality." Some of the Iraqis he interviewed on camera "told me they would commit suicide if American bombing didn't start. They were willing to see their homes demolished to gain their freedom from Saddam's bloody tyranny. They convinced me that Saddam was a monster the likes of which the world had not seen since Stalin and Hitler. He and his sons are sick sadists. Their tales of slow torture and killing made me ill, such as people put in a huge shredder for plastic products, feet first so they could hear their screams as bodies got chewed up from foot to head." <<<<<
