Good Morning.

This is the Daily Thread of Operation Iraqi Freedom - Situation Room - 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 brief description of what the graphic is would help!  If you post graphics, please "size" them so that our browsers continue to load the rest of the thread!

ms bag cam has someone reassuring an injured person "your going to live... don't worry..." now a test signal. Weird.

[sheikdetailfeather]

He certainly is! A fine, fine job!

[two23]

"battle at presidential palace"--thats where Greg Kelly's unit is--has FNC had him on since last night?

[retrokitten]

There are alot of fierce days ahead. We need to keep praying for our troops and thier families.

[Mrs.Liberty]

Yes, he was on this morning..helmetless, I might add.

[BagCamAddict]

Is someone shooting RPGs off the roof of the Palestine Hotel??

[Spunky]

but I'm looking for an actual article with details

I am not sure if there is one.

Did you scroll through the whole thread to see if someone might have found one and posted/linked it to the thread?

Also go to search, keyword, Al Jazeera. There was another thread started on this. Search it to see if someone might have found an article and posted/linked it to that thread.

After the move into the heart of Baghdad yesterday-and the jubliant crowds and smiling US soldiers-my favorite moment yesterday was learning that a British naval vessel had KICKED Britain's BBC television staff OFF ITS TURF! I love that. The comment was that they were SICK of the constant leftist slant, biased and terribly negative of their courageous war efforts and decided to do something about it!

Can we do the same to sourpuss Couric, Brokaw, Jennings and Rather?? < wishing thinking in full bloom here >

Ya have to wonder if their sponsors are aware of the hatred growing out here for their extremely corrupt reporting of this war.

[Lauratealeaf]

Wankin and Blixin and Nod.

[retrokitten]

That is a really good one! Very creative, Laura! LOL!!

[retrokitten]

Do you have a picture back yet?? I'm still getting the colored bars.

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

Thanks for the link, kitten. It's important. For anyone who wants to send a copy to the rotten, scheming members of the press trying to pin humanitarian crises on us while we try to rid Iraq of thugs who would intentionally shoot children just to make us look bad. There are no more minders. There are no more excuses.

MSNBC's Bob Arnott: Iraqi Hospitals Filled Children with Gunshots - From Saddam's Fedeyeen
MSNBC | 4-10-2003

Bob Arnott was just on MSNBC reporting that he had traveled to many of the hospitals in the area and assisted in the care for the many children in the facilities that have been struck by gunfire (he's also a doctor). He said he was unsure what the mood in the hospitals would be but found the doctors and patients to be "ecstatic" that Saddam was gone. He then said that the gunshots were all made by small caliber weapons that the U.S. Army does not have and, when he inquired further about the cause of the wounds, he was told by parents and hospital staff that the paramilitary forces were shooting kids on purpose to make it look like the U.S. forces were inflicting civilian casualties.

Not until it shows up at the cash register!

[dfwgator]

MSNBC reporting on Suicide bombing attack on coalition checkpoint...no word yet on casualties.

[Lauratealeaf]

Thanks. But I can't figure out who is Nod. Need help on that!

[BagCamAddict]

Not weird. SCARY.

Very faint singing over the loudspeakers... eeeerie sounding. I would not want to be in Baghdad tonight.

[Consort]

Flotsam, Jetsam, Ligan, and Wankam. (Sounds like a law firm.)

[longtermmemmory]

As for sponsors, I don't drink lipton since the whole dixie chix. Let them know http://www.lipton.com

[two23]

Still praying a shield of protection for all of the Coalition forces and a Divine Force Multiplier for our side.

[BagCamAddict]

But I can't figure out who is Nod. Need help on that!

Why, it's Baghdad Bob, of course!
