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...

Hey, I have a question. Is Gen Franks still running the operations going on in Afghanistan also?

[ztiworoh]

Can someone summarize what's happened today for me? Anything important?

[Dog]

Bob Arnot on MSNBC telling of a small town that Marines just liberated.....people were cheering the Marines...:-)

Marines arrested the Baath Party hacks...

[RobFromGa]

Go Troops!

"Newt just told Tony that he feels they will disappear the night they realize they can't beat us."


Let's just hope that he get's stopped by a patrol from the 101st or the 173rd Airborne Bde. before he makes it to Syria.

[Dog]

Whoops I just posted 1229...

[The Wizard]

I'm listening to some crazy news chick on Fox calling from Afganhistan....sound "excited" talking about a possible rocket strike in Kabul

[AndyJackson]

you are not the only one who is just a bit tired of seeing ol' tommy boy.

[Green]

yes it hit a peacekeeping mission near the US embassy in Kabul

[Mustang]

Awesome photo!

Caption: "Sorry Saddam, you're NOT going to Syria"

[Timeout]

You're NOT the only one getting tired of seeing that picture. CHAD GORE, please stop posting it. After every page, every day, for 11 days---it's getting very annoying.

[txradioguy]

Technically it's still in the CENTCOM AOR....but the CG of the 18th Airborne Corps is running some kind of JTF there as well to let Gen Franks concentrate on the Gulf.

[Consort]

Maybe he could make it tighter.
