MSNBC: SUICIDE BOMBER ATTACKS MARINES MOMENTS AGO
4 Seriously injured

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/889989/posts

[Carolina]

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

Divine Force Multiplier...I like that.

[Spunky]

I'm still getting the colored bars.

MSNBC cam is still color bars

[BagCamAddict]

Anyone listening to CBS cam right now?? Weird Iraqi talking... turn it up loud enough to hear it... some desperate-sounding vocals a few seconds ago.

You think the suicide bombing was what set off the car alarm? (those two ka-booms)

[epluribus_2]

test pattern.

[Carolina]

Go here:

Sharp picture here.

[two23]

I do too. Like Joshua shouting down the walls--

[Socratic]

"Wankerette"

Please, please. Let's be gender neutral. Fonda is just a plain old Wanker.

[Spunky]

Came back on momentarily with some Iraqi speaking now back to Baghdad at night.

[retrokitten]

I had a guy in blue shirt looking around for a few seconds and now I just got the mosque/palm tree back.

[sheikdetailfeather]

When the war first started, I saw a blonde with a white sweater around her shoulders talking close up on MSNBC camera. (No sound) She looked very worried and turned her back to a guy who was dressed in green like a soldier. It looked like he rested a gun on her shoulder. Then they disappeared.

[epluribus_2]

well now, lights on palm tree and in front of mosque back.

[retrokitten]

Divine Force Multiplier...I like that.

Me, too.

[Jackie-O]

Just heard radio report the suicide bombing was outside Palestine Hotel.

[two23]

I'm not afraid to ask for that.

[Lauratealeaf]

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

LOL!

[sissyjane]

Any other news from the bag-cam about this? What ablut Bob Arnott? Isn't he at the Palestine Hotel? More info please!!

[Abigail Adams]

I've got the CBS bagcam. Someone said "I've got a couple of injured people here, I think they were shot..." or something like that. "A couple of patients here who clearly have been shot in the jaw and the back." "A lot of stuff going on here today, a lot of explosions and stuff, I'm sure if they were there that's what happened." Trying to paraphrase.

[Abigail Adams]

I'm guessing it's Bob Arnett, since he's a DR. Talking to someone on the phone about the video they've shot.

[BagCamAddict]

Dr. Bob Arnot is talking now on the CBS cam, with an Iraqi. Have to turn up the volume pretty high. I hope those are friendlies on the roof with him now. He has no idea what life is like with the Minders, because he's been with our troops. Bob is preparing to make a report... just now he said "there was a problem outside the Palestine Hotel here, I don't think they were shot."

What does the MSNBC cam have on now?

He says "There's alot of stuff going on here, there's been alot of explosions goind on here all afternoon. I had to treat a couple of patients that had clearly been shot, one in the jaw and the other (??). We got some footage of that. Also got some really neat footage at a hospital this afternoon... a baby was born, and the mother named him GEORGE."

"I shot some other stuff, liberation baby, marines coming to the hospital to protect it, and myself treating a couple of Iraqis in the street."
