Since news is kinda slow right now, I hope no one minds if I post a picture....

Colonel Hugh Blackman of the Scots Dragoon Guards plays with a local boy in Basra in southern Iraq (news - web sites), April 6, 2003. British forces were in control of most of Iraq's second city, Basra, on April 7 but continued to face some resistance, a British military spokesman said. (Pool via Reuters)

What's the Cliff Note's version of the Tony/George meeting?

The UN has a role supplying the rolls.

Lara reports for CBS now so her report is usually timed to get on the CBS evening news. The past few days she has broadcast her report via the CBS webcam about 4-5 pm Eastern (midnight or so Bagdad time).

I don't know if she does more than one broadcast a day, if so I haven't heard it.

Heads up, smoke on the CBS BagCam. It looked almost like vehicle smoke (like a big engine)

New BIG smoke coming up to the right of the mosque....is that Richar? Woooo HOoooo!

[Big Bad Bob]

Sausages please, Kofi!

Yeah, what you said... Boo freaking hoo, Chater.

Weren't the 'rackis moving these people around in the last day or so? They don't seem to be in too much of a snit over the Polish journalists that were captured by the 'rackis. If they are that close to the Ministry of Disinformation, why are they suprised? Building gets bomb-ed, you next door, you get bomb-ed too. Mediots. They think everything is ALL about THEM, ALL the TIME.

Al-Jazeera correspondent Majed Abdul-Hadi said ``astonishment, concern and fear'' were gripping journalists after al-Jazeera and Abu Dhabi offices were targeted.

Is this the same as SHOCK and AWE ??

Thanks. Feel free to tell others about WinningIraqiFreedom.com

The hard work of freedom is being accomplished by our forces over there, not only for us, but as a gift to the Iraqi people. God bless them for it, and may we stand resolute behind them.

Best regards.
