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...

MORNNG.. I too am deeply troubled that I have to leave in nxt few hours & will not be able to keep up with you here & probably cartoons will be more important on the two local TV stations than Centcom Briefing..

Keep up the news flow....to catch up later.. will probably check in here & there thru AM..

I'd like to know: Exactly how does a truck with a bomb make it into a US base facility?

I'm going to bet we learned a valuable lesson with yesterday's horrific car/homicide bombing. Praying that no US troops injured or killed in Kuwait.

unknown results so far

FNC: No fatalities from incident; 15 injured. Incidet occured at Udari Airbase in Kuwait. Presumably more details during the CENTCOM briefing at 7A ET.

Thread just created on this. Stats vary. One poster claims one death while another says 15 injuries. Fog of war I suppose.

FN: drove up to people lined up at PX. Did I hear them say that they don't know if the bomb went off?? Said reports of gun fire from an eye witness. Ambulances at the scene.

there may be no bomb. kiran said he just drove into the line of soldiers. it'll come out soon.

[Catspaw]

Not known if there was a bomb. Reports are sketchy. All I've heard is that someone in a truck/car drove into a line of GIs at a PX.

CENTCOM briefing about to start...
