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...

Depends on who's allowed to buy those weapons, and which ones.

Sorry to hear that.....I lost my main computer tonight. It just froze up and won't restart. Nothing happens when you turn it on. Blank screen. You can hear the fan. Maybe someone can tell me what to do. It won't boot a floopy. I had to scramble around to set this one up.

From what I've read/heard, only Baath part members, or Saddam Loyalists are allowed to own weapons and ammo...

I swear I am thinking this web cam may be looping.

Careful, ma'am; it gets briefly boring occasionally, but remember how easily the Quagmire Syndrome descends :-).

Are you on the CBS Real cam? Lots of new booms, even some jets -- it's new.

If Bush wants to help the economy, he should call in a strike on the Sadaam statue we have been staring at right now. Then, all the hardworking, productive Freepers could go to bed.

No can do... that statue is destined to be a lawn jockey on the front lawn of the White House.

To spaced out to be from an A-10. Maybe an automatic grenade launcher?
