Please have mercy on us dial up limited FReepers! Limit the big graphics, post links instead. A brief description of what the graphic is would help: To all who helped this get started, thank you! Special thanks to null and void for keeping these threads running on the weekends, Mo1 for the screamer, Ragtime Cowgirl for her Exclusive Live Transcription Service (tm), the AdminMods for their tolerance, mhking for the video links, and, of course,...

Of course, the question that needs to be answered is whether those weapons came dirctly from Russia and China, or whether they were sold by a third party, like North Korea or FRANCE.

[cibco]

Has the II MEF vanished?

[Nam Vet]

I don't see big boobs anywhere on the webcam.

BIG FLASH

[ican'tbelieveit]

[Dog]

Yes ....its somewhere in theater is all CENTCOM will say..

[steveegg]

'Tis an outstanding bomb (not rocket-propelled, though).

[The Wizard]

2 hugh explosions in Bagland

[glock rocks]

15 seconds to the report on that one.

[TexKat]

MY son will Graduate from Auburn University Montgomery on May 10 with a Bachelor's in Business Management! I am so proud.

Congratulations to you and to your son, commish.

[Poser]

I got 18 seconds, so 3-4 miles from downtown to front.

[Dog]

Daylight in Baghdad should prove to be interesting...

[glock rocks]

shep's gonna have a report on the grenade bomber being charged and the possible outcome next on FOX.

[Jackie-O]

Congrats!!!

[Route66]

I've mostly only been watching FOX this afternoon, but I have not seen any live reports from the embeds in the Baghdad area to go with all the incredible sounds of battle coming from the live cam in the city I have kept up on my computer.

I wonder if the reporters were told not to put out any live reports during the night, or perhaps I've just missed them. It seems the sounds of battle have been non-stop for most of the night.

[commish]

Should be no possible about it. Guilty, execution by firing squad. period.

[Miss Marple]

The live reports usually show up late at night here, which is daytime there.

[prairiebreeze]

How much longer until dawn? I'm unsure esp. after the time change.

Prairie

[Dog]

All embedds have gone silent today..

[ican'tbelieveit]

I haven't seen any either. They usually come on after daybreak when shep starts his program at 11pm et. Another set of flashes, lighting up the whole horizon.
