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...

So what's your best guess as to why missiles of any length were found at a "chemical plant"?

To: thedugal
just heard excellent report from an embed reporter interviewing a US Marine Lt.
Q: How would you rate the Iraqis you came up against?
A: Poor. Many gave up immediately, some put up resistence. The resistence was poor and as soon as they realized what they were up against, the rest gave up.

The Medina is 5-8,000 with 100 to 130 T-72s.
As far as I know, much of that armor is scrap by now.

My comment on the human shield guy - a total moron. If I could meet him I'd ask, "with all the available information at hand, why did it take personal observation to convince you? Are you from Missouri? Or are you so incapable of thinking for yourself you followed the vision of others without nary a thought?"
