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!

Linda Vester said SMOKING GUN, a wanker term, for sure!

I love FNC to death. And I definately love Linda Vester. BUT I can't take another WMD 'discovery'.

sigh..I'll wait until CENTCOM announces it as official.

[Mo1]

Yeah, she exercised her free will by throwing herself in front of a bulldozer and now people want an investigation into it.

Well it's kind of hard to ask her why she threw herself in front of a bulldozer

[MEG33]

I keep my media filter helmet on until verification!

[ken5050]

You can pretty much trace any sample back to the breeder reactor.....Tom Clancy 'splained it...

[Timeout]

MsNBC Quick!

The firefight? It was shown earlier.

Know whose filming it?

The BloomMobile...David Bloom's camera crew is moving on out with the same unit, continuing to film, with the reporter seat empty. No words, just film. Kinda like the missing plane in a flyover.

[Nam Vet]

Gotta straighten this looting situation out.

Someone might 'liberate' the bagcams !

LOLOLOLOL!!!

Is the US 4th Army Inf Div moving northward ,yet?.
They need to get moving TODAY !!!!!

I have a question about our flag.

I understand that we aren't supposed to fly it over conquered territory in Iraq because we want to be seeensitive and not intiiiimidate the locals.

But it seems like the leftists are taking that to mean that we are supposed to HIDE our flag. They took exception to our guy draping it over the grand saddomite's face yesterday. A reported at the CENTCOM briefing asked if steps are being taken to ensure that the flag is not displayed any more -- to which Gen. Renuart said we WILL display the flag on our facilities. But it seems to be turning into a church/state type debate, and I say if the left doesn't want us to show our flag they can go straight to HELL. It's not the Iraqis that are complaining, it's these damned liberals.

Seems like we ought to do something about that.

[Warren_Piece]

Keep us cubicle bound antiwankers informed...

[retrokitten]

LMAO!! That is quote of the day material!!

[epluribus_2]

It means he's doing "turn about a fixed point" training. Next is squares simulating downwind traffic patterns. Probably no big deal. All private pilot training does this - kinda like scales on piano.

[AppyPappy]

Huh?

[TEXOKIE]

Thanks for the link, retrokitten! :-)

[Mo1]

Thanks .. see my posts on 1380 .. I could be wrong but I still don't think this happened from our tanks

More from Major Garrett. Military inspection team is now on the site. Second tests confirm the presence of highlevels of radiation consistent with WMD. Pentagon didn't know much about this early this morning, but now have a team on the site.

Villagers are willing to show Marines hiding places of things which they were NOT willing to show to UN inspectors, for fear of Saddam. They trust the Marines.

Hoping we get more information on this pretty soon.

Hey! where's mine.

Pentagon briefing on CBS BagCam

[The Hon. Galahad Threepwood]

From The Corner:

--Brian captured an Iraqi general himself at a checkpoint. A man trying to get through a checkpoint that they had set up to allow civilians to leave didn't look right to Brian. Brian searched his stuff and found a very ornately engraved plated pistol. The man insisted that he was just a farmer. Brian wasn't having it, so he called over his battalion intelligence officer who actually is a farmer (his battalion is made up of reservists). The farmer/intel officer said, "Show me your hands." Upon seeing the general's silky smooth hands, he said, showing his own hands, "Those aren't farmers hands; THESE are farmer's hands!" They handcuffed the general who proceeded to bawl like a little girl as they carried him away. Brian later learned that the pistol engravings indicated that it was a gift from Saddam. [PLEASE tell me that he's bringing home that pistol!]
