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:

Special thanks to null and void for keeping these running over the weekend and Monday, to all of you for keeping these threads alive, the AdminMods for their tolerance, mhking for the video links, and, of course, Belly Girl...

when I came in tonight there was nothing going on news wise

if anyone had stayed on a news topic we all would have gone to bed as many did anyway

now that there is some action the news is being posted and discussed

I've scrolled through 2 or 3 or 4 thousand posts on these threads and never once complained about "fluff" or belly girl other than to say we need a belly guy:)

Carney has a valid point as it was soooooooooo boring for awhile tonight

it was in their headline news .. they haven't discussed it yet .. they just broke off from the Iraqi Health Min. breifing

thx how could I forget that word

[Tree of Liberty]

Don't know, I'm afraid. My gut says no, since the only FNC news to be broadcasts on their affiliates are just packaged national news segments for the locals.

[ApesForEvolution]

Thanks SStI.

Fox - explosions in Kuwait city earlier was due to a patriot missile hit on an incoming projectile. Debris touched down in Kuwait City.

KUWAIT SHOOTS DOWN MISSILE - Sky News 3/27/03

Go to Google and search WSVN, click first result for WSVN Miami TV, click on a picture on the main page and click on Video on the sidebar.There should be 2 links there for Channel 7 streaming. They had been showing FNC all night till 5AM Eastern. It hasn't been working today though but maybe you'll get lucky.

[Tree of Liberty]

Thanks for the link instructions. I'll abstain from using it, myself, since I've got FNC on TV via DirecTV.

[Mo1]

OK .. sky news is reporting that KC Officals are calling it a scud .. but either way it was a missle
