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...

Anybody got a price on round trip to Baghdad International, since the Bagcams are down, might as well watch in person.

Well just before 2pm today, as Tony was saying buh-bye, they brought up a still of Tony to plug Fox News Sunday, and the photo was obviously several years old (no grey hair) and Tony made an off-the-cuff remark about how bad the photo was. So 5 hours later someone replaced the image with a more recent one, and Tony then commented on how quickly the techies made the change after Tony's remark at 2pm.

He was with the 5th Marines as they entered Baghdad proper from the East. They were proceeding down streets with 5 and 6 story buildings. The medivac helo had problems with a load of wounded and had to set down in the midst of street fighting. He said the battalion commander charged out and gave them protection while they repaired the helo and took off.

Hi Dog. I just got back and am catching up but it seems kind of quiet now, so that means the troops are active.

here another "story" I would like to see some followup on: remember when bill tierney, former UN weapons inspector, said on Hannity that there was a huge underground nuclear weapons plant outside baghdad? our forces must be near that location there, where is this place?
