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...

Sky News just said that in the field there have been rumours that the II Marine Expeditionary (14,000- 42,000 strong) is coming from the Northwest to launch a killing blow on Baghdad after wire reports noted that the Baghdad Government may fall in days, not weeks.

Thread on FR. No link here, sorry.

Geez his Spanish is about as fast as my mom's. *L* I can pick out a word here and there but that's about it.

I'm in about the same boat - he's pretty fast. His in studio hosts are some cute dark-haired babe, and Jose Diaz-Balart, younger brother of the Diaz-Balart brothers, GOP US reps from Florida...

Prayers for your son. Sounds like the troops at the com. center are handling things professionally:

FN: Ben Johnson, FOX satellite engineer:  The attack came between 1 and 2 am. EST, sounded like very low flying jet...turned out that it has been a misiled attack...first thought of the troops...taking peple out of the burning building...regroup ...get ops back on line...the tactical ops center is nerve center of brigade ops...coordinating efforts of brigade's assets...don't know whether it was ff or Iraqi missile..."best we can tell it was an enemy missile attack on our location"...2 journalists killed, one from Spain, one from Germany..tactical operation center is a collection of armored vehicles that can operate essentially anywhere...the situation inside the building now is charred ruins...soldiers are in there recovering...sensitive documents, equipment....they are in contact with the people they need to be in contact w/ to conduct battle in Baghdad.

Appropriately enough, the channel is called TVBS.

Finally a company name that fits him...

Our Spanish webcam friend is Fran Sevilla on Telemundo (thanks to my trusty cable TV)...

I wonder if Fran has a minder...and if he speaks Spanish...

Speaking Spanish is a race between words.
