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 Null and Void for keeping these threads running on the weekends, 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...

These guys are good.... another side-step of the question of WMD, specifically the question about the guys who had to be decontaminated.

Brooks said "I don't have any knowledge of that report."

So the behind-the-scenes guys know what to tell him and what not to tell him... so that he can answer truthfully by saying "I" don't have any knowledge of that.

Good job General Brooks. Keep it up. :-)

Chemical Ali is dead -- multiple independent reports, many hours old by now.

USA Today (she stands again for the 3rd day in a row): Can you tell us about what you found in the warehouse? Nerve gas?

A: knows nothing specific about this case....(talking about stuff they have to monitor--Vince deflecting here)

Question about flying members of the IRaqi National Congress into Iraqi--what's the future?

A: our gov't has done work with the INC...I don't want to characterize what's been done with INC...suffice it to say that there are a number of Iraqis who are working for a free Iraq.

Question from Rammesh lookalike: Checkpoints around Baghdad, please comment.

A: Ongoing actions so cannot say exact locations. We want to deny freedom of action just as we have in other parts of Iraq so we know who's moving in and out. We have areas of high degree of control, others just surveillance. Ultimate objective is control over movement in and out of B-dad.

Miami reporter: If they haven't used the WMD now, isn't it reasonable to conclude that they don't have them? *groan*

Mpls Post Reporter: The regime hasn't used any Chem/Bio yet. Wouldn't a reasonable person therefore conclude that there are none?

A: Negative.

I read that a bunch of them used the loo and rifled through stuff taking souvenirs (ashtrays, etc.).

Question: how is the regime still functioning, what organized resistance?

A: Still areas under regime control (Saddamn City--suburb of Baghdad)...we see where regime can exercise control over military capabilities...these are low level decisions (aha!)...

This just in on Chemical ALI.

As Coroner I must aver,

I thoroughly examined him.

And he's not only merely dead,

he's really most sincerely dead.

MSNBC website says, "Chemical Ali found dead", as if he slipped in the shower or had a heart attack or something...

Question about what was found in palaces? Comment about additional forces arriving?

A: found papers, didn't turn up individuals but information. As to the build up of forces, it was always part of the plan...won't go into where they will be placed...it's not just US forces arriving...

Beeb reporter: Expand on finding leaders, also on SCUDS in the west.

A: Been finding leaders in their homes...sometimes we see them going back to their homes, some to other places...we continue to monitor...we found missile assemblies, we've found missiles...al-Samoud missiles...all are capable of carrying CW...our operations continue...
