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 on the weekend, to all of you for keeping these threads alive, the AdminMods for their tolerance, mhking for the video links, and, of course, Belly Girl...

wont the thugs in Baghdad just shot them from behind as they leave, just like it ohtr cities?

I think it is a good idea for them to leave also, in a way.. but then again how would we tell difference from civ pop & the troops that are leaving to reform & re attack?

Need to get garbage out.. be back in few min...

Cen com briefing time anyone?

FOOD Distribution Note: Prepare a peremiter, (Trucks, whatever) Take a container from a truck to use as the in point......they come through the container one at a time, they are greeted on the other side by 5 heavily armed Soldiers, whose presence alone will calm them down, and as they leave the container on the other side they get the available food and materials.

Wish I could draw it out...as the people waiting for aid are forced to become single units, they are immediately under control. Calm them down and get rid of the pictures of them acting like animals......

Do you have FOX on? What city is that? Someone said earlier it's southwest Baghdad. But, that can't be right...surely the 3rd isn't within camera range of BAG.

Please excuse my bad spelling and grammar first. Timeout
We have reports from the US Marine recon team of seeing Saddam SS Rg in chem suits with chem/bio/gas? drums near south of Baghdad. The Winds are blowing South to North.
When Saddam killers use the chem/bio/gas 50%++ will head
NORTHWARD toward Baghdad. There is 4 million+ people still in baghdad right?. TO SAVE THERE LIVES sends out the word to LEAVE BAGHDAD AT ONCE, because SADDAM IS GOING TO USE WMD,etc... Most won't listen, but many might? Tell them to head(USE) Rte hwy1 which leads to Syria. Promise them that this road WON'T BE BOMB by our planes..I know confusion & panic,etc...etc..will happen, BUT Millions of lives might ,or WILL BE SAVED !!!! Hwy 1 is the road being used to re-supply Baghdad with Gas, AMMO,Terrorist NUTBALLS,etc..Send the MASSES of People to Syria..PLAY DIRTY TOO!, but in this case we are SAVING LIVES and ours too. aadd to this???think hard about this might just work?

The camera is showing a walled city, behind the wall is an Iraqi observation tower. They're going to take out the tower, but artillery endangers civies, so they're calling in the choppers. An artillery commander is on the mike, but he doesn't seem to realize it. He's making fun of the choppers (in good jest) because they missed on the first round. Said they must be letting a newbie get some target practice. Finally, Greg told him it was LIVE and he chuckled.

Tower is still standing at this writing....and they've gone to another reporter. More later.

Some Guesses:

Can you show us evidence you are not torturing the Iraaqi POW's?

When, exactly, will the ground attack on Baghdad occur?

What are the exact locations of your units? What is the troop strength?

BODY COUNT?

When did you stop beating your wife?
