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™, Fledermaus for his 15 minutes of fame, and, of course, Belly Girl...

MM, the BBC reporter stated that the American Warplane dropped bomb hit 10-12 feet from where he was standing.

We drop 250lb, 500lb, 1000lb and bigger, and a collection of nasty cluster bombs and dumbass bombs.

All are guaranteed to kill at a range somewhat over 10 feet.

If he lied about the proximity, he's lying about the American warplane. He's lying about everything. Nobody survives a 10 foot separation from the landing point of a 250 or 500lb American bomb. We're not dropping Cherry Bombs, Zebras, Black Cats, Bottle Rockets or sparklers from our F-15s last time I checked.

Russia will only blame us.

[Devil's Advocate Mode: On]I wonder if we had intel they were smuggling some [possibly human] "strategic cargo" out? That would make their convoy a legitimate target...

Have to load up the cam, it slows down my computer so I don't leave it on all the time. Thanks for the heads-up!

If Saddam's regime will hide behind their own women and children, they would certainly have no qualms about hiding behind foreign diplomats.

It isn't a sporting event.

EXACTLY.

The Libertarians argument is flawed and inconsistant in so many ways, and a FREEPER layed this case out in one posting, better than any of the numerous lectures I was forced to endure at UNC(Berkeley East). Thanks for the reponse though.

Oh.

Well, that does put a different slant on the story.

Probably the truth will be far different, as you say.

But I still am amazed we haven't had more accidents!

Anybody notice how few sirens there've been on the Bag-cam since we hit the police station?

only hearing one side of the conversation.... he was complaining that they couldn't get any cameramen (locals) because they had all gone home. responding to a negotiation question (Coalition and Iraqi) that he hadn't heard any talks about it as "this is the stronghold for the supporters of Saddam and his sons" "heavy explosions going on now"....... Thats all I heard....

Must have been cherry bombs or bottle rockets to have that affect!! We must have run out of the "big stuff"!!
