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 agree. This sounds like a cumulative total of the Brits.

If there is a new incident which doubles that, it would easily be the single worst allied loss of the BASH.

Yea its just that when I saw him being interviewd on AJ the background matched one or two of the bag cams. I thought the reporters were in the same hotel as the cams and shortly after the interview reporters were talking about a "huge" explosion 100 to 150 meters away that shook the hotel.

Oh.

Freedom of the press - as shown by the freedom-lovin' Iraq despots who are so cheerfully celebrated by the international socialists - Hollywood, overseas, and in the democrati party; while Bush is cursed as an enemy.

Reporters must stay with their handlers, and reporters can no longer leave their hotel. Gee. Free press.

Bourne Identity, of course. XXX is like watching a 2-hour long music video. Ironic title, since a flick for kids.

They were giving cumlitive totals for coalition casulties. Right before they flashed the Brit numbers, they showed US, dead injured, MIA, POW's

Thanks much for the post #3903!

I wonder if it's true. Debka seems as credible to me as many other sources, and the truth is probably partly in there.

Very interesting!

D**m!

They should have timed those hotel-shattering blasts for the MIDDLE of one of Bob's suppressed, "impressed" and repressed depressed conferences.
