***Operation Iraqi Freedom - Situation Room - Day 5 - LIVE THREAD***
Everywhere! | 23 Mar 2003 | An.American.Expatriate

Posted on 03/23/2003 8:56:32 PM PST by null and void

Good Morning.

This is the Daily Thread of Operation Iraqi Freedom - LIVE THREAD.

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.

Please have mercy on us dial up limited FReepers! Limit the big graphics, post links instead. A breif description of what the graphic is would help:

To all who helped this get started, thank you!

Special thanks to An.American.Expatriate for staring the daily threads, Mo1 for the screamer, the AdminMods for their tolerance, mhking for the video links, and, of course, Belly Girl...

This was just on and appears to be relatively new:

On Fox?

We captured some Iraqi troops. The leader among them told us that he was told to protect a site no matter what, that "there were things there that shouldn't be seen". Our chem detection units are on the way.

Around the suspected chem plant?

Why do certain people stand up after a question is asked in the House of Commons? Just curious.

Was refering to the wind noise on the MSNBC and CNN Baghdad-cams. That wind sounds quite a bit like explosions when it whips past.

Sean Penn and Alec Baldwin are holed up in there, is my best guess.

I'm going to guess it is to indicate they agree with the question/point being made.
