Good Morning.

It is designed for general conversation about the events of the day. In depth discussion of events should be left to individual threads - but links to the threads or other articles is highly encouraged. This allows us to stay abreast of the situation in general, while also providing a means of obtaining specific information.

To all who helped this get started, thank you!

Iran is ready to implode. We need to be ready to move if the mullahs start really killing protestors.

O boy Here comes the Saddam 'meeting' shot today(they say)

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

Saddam on Iraqi TV looking 10 years younger, lol!

Well of course the difference in the width of the aircraft would make it harder to knock down, but deployed in a geometric pattern which would make it hard to breakthrough without making radical course changes in relatively short distances would get some of them, particularly when you know they're coming. It seems like fairly cheap defensive hardware, and you could change the pattern of deployment rapidly and randomly.

At this point I think it falls into the deminishing returns catagory. :)

Peter Arnatt reported bombing was going on to north and west of BG

Suprise avenue of approach?

[slimer]

O dear ,those were our missiles that did hit Iran!

Just a little warning shot across the bow. Stay out of this, you could be next.

MSNBC showing Pro-America rally in Clarksville, TN...just outside Ft. Campbell! Yippie

Cam had rolling thunder sound

"I wonder why we sent a letter of apology to them through the Swiss instead of sending it directly."

We have zero "Official" diplomatic relations with Iran.

Who were the last troops to get killed? I think I missed the last update and a friend of mine has a brother in the 135st. and she is asking(if anyone knows).

MSNBC showing pro-troop rally in Texas. Not a big group, but they are on the right side, and getting covered.

Each day I try to enjoy something from each of the four food groups: the bonbon group, the salty-snack group, the caffeine group and the "What-ever-it-is-in-the- tinfoil-in-the-back-of-the-fridge

The Iran matter has been resolved and don't forget, a missile hit can be a hole in the sand.

[BulletBobCo]

Just saw what looks like file footage of Sodamn Insane with Teric Aziz on FOX. The glasses that Aziz is wearing look a lot like the ones that Sodamn was wearing during the infamos first strike video. I wonder if Sodamn borrowed them?

Look at what CSPAN has been doing...Canadian TV, very anti-war. Interviews with leftists about how wrong President Bush is, and just now, coverage of a group of "Veterans Against War In Iraq, saying how evil we are...

I don't think I've ever seen such an unbroken run of liberal, anti-American coverage...

Great find, Cowgirl! Iraqi expatriate USA support rally. Take note of the media blackout illustrated in this story.

[slimer]

Gen. McInerny(sp) just went out on a limb and implied that Saddam and Azziz were all dead!

Well, they did say that they would die fighting for their country. They just didn't think they would be the first ones.

[Cboldt]

The last ones?/ Iraqi!!

Seriously, 3Rd Infantry Division.

[Mo1]

Saddam on Iraqi TV looking 10 years younger, lol!

air brushing?

[Diddle E. Squat]

Wouldn't it be something if the surrender was announced just before the Oscars start...

[SoldiersGirl]

I figure my coffee is made from water...that's good for me right?
