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...

Maybe this is the reason the bag cams are out:

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/886163/posts
BAGHDAD, Iraq - Deafening explosions rocked central Baghdad early Sunday as Iraqi troops, members of President Saddam Hussein Fedayeen militia and teenage soldiers patrolled streets to protect the capital from U.S.-led forces.

Tried web cams for PMSNBC and NTV - no joy Live image on FNC looked very grainy, like it was an OTA signal and not satellite - at the CENTCOM Saturday briefing, something was said about the Iraqis buying satellite uplink time. Maybe our guys got the satellite truck(s)? Didn't something similar happen during GW1?

GOOD question!
If memory serves me correctly he was NBC's "SCUD STUD" during GulfWar1.

Since he spend a lot of face time on the History Channel, perhaps {his/their} camp is trying to lend a reconizable face {hence a form of instant "crediablity"} to their warped school of thought.......

OK..Achmed must be renegotiating his contract and showing the networks his valuable contribution and how they would suffer greatly without him maintaining the bagcams.
