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 and keep it running, 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, Ragtime Cowgirl for her Exclusive Live Transcription Service™, and, of course, Belly Girl...

I just figured out why we're not hearing the calls to prayer. No electricity to broadcast. Doh.

This is a regime in serious, deep denial.

The only thing they could expel is the contents of their bowels when they see Americans coming.

Well all totalitarian regimes in their final stages indulge in ridiculous fantasies. When the Russians were entering Berlin, Hitler's people were the same way.

According to CNN Iraqis trying and again I say trying to flee with suitcases full of money. I guess they finally discovered that they can't win the war so they steal Saddam's (excuse me) I mean the Iraqi civilian's money and attempt to run. Too bad, no money, no life. Um, shock and umph.
