Tanks on the bridge ... one took a shot.
The lead tank looks like it has a PWO/MIA flag flying from it.
Uh-OH - Zips in the wire

There is footage of the lead tank taking out the camera that was on the west side of the Tigris, and a bit north of the bridge with the tanks.
The debris that was flying up in front of the camera was incoming machine gun fire. (IMHO)

I don't think so. I just watched it again twice. Looked like ejected shell casings to me.

The incomming fire that kicked up the dbris also knocked the camera over. You can see impacts hitting other nearby objects.
I'm quite sure, but not perfect.

they don't care if saddam is alive or dead. they just want to kill americans. Not very good at killing (armed) Americans, are they?

They just showed again. Does look like concrete coming up.
the first two looks like casings then after that does look like concret.
To: Born to Conserve
Well, I hope someone has the ability to do the screen captures to settle the question.
To: ganeshpuri89
I guess the feydayeen took an operational pause too. Now they're back, hope this is their last dash and we finish this soon.

You mean Brian Wilson is unsure now. He must have gotten a lot of calls.
It seemed that it was outgoing fire and that was the reason the plane above took it out.

This is what I saw also. Looked like debri being kicked up before the HE round from the lead tank.

You're right. They said they got a lot of calls.

Greg talked to one of the commanders and that is what the tanks are doing -- stopping the bad guys from coming across.
However some of the Fox Reporters think they plan to go across to the other side and take out Baghdad Bob!

Guerilla training camp and drums of sarin gas. And it's reported on MSNBC.

The guy behind a camera could have been easily mistaken as a guy behind a weapon.
To: Light Speed
Seemed that an RPG crossed over the rear deck of tank #2 and hit the building where the camera is/was?
