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!

Easter Rabbits overload. They will be cheap in a couple of weeks. Of course, that might be offensive, as Easter=Christians, and we are giving toys to a largely muslim population.

You say Tomato, I say Tomahto
You say 'Peace Sign' - I say 'Victory Sign'
You say 'Easter Bunny' - I say 'Bunny Rabbit"

Shep says "significant" news coming from Rick Leventhal as soon as he can get the satellite hookup.

Please keep us informed. This is very important. Thanks in advance.

Someone tried to drive vehicle away from contruction site. Marines halted vehicle - later found it looked like a radar truck, but had a fake wall within vehicle. Marines found a pully system with bins and containers and winch with hooks to handle cool and warm items. Marines say it fits the description of a bio lab.

[justshe]

That sounds like an incredible amt of equipment in such a small looking truck.....that Leventhal is reporting on now.

[dfwgator]

It's about the rolling bio-weapons lab.

[Mrs.Liberty]

I'm exhausted from all the wanking going on here!!! LOL

Don't you know you can go blind from that? ;o)

[ican'tbelieveit]

But if they weren't there, useless reports while they are there or not, they wouldn't have the stories to tell when they did leave. David Chater is going to have tales to tell that he wouldn't have if he weren't there. He saw the way the Iraqi's disseminated information. We don't just have to take our government's word that this happened, there was someone there who lived it and can tell the story.

Source, on the record Capt. Aaron Robertson.

[Michael81Dus]

Correct! I just saw a report about these guys singing Kumbaya and holding hands. Then they sing the old songs from Vietnam again (Where have all the flowers gone) and remember the glory times - now that their hair is gray and they behave like those they never wanted to be.

[dfwgator]

Martin Sheen was right, inspections really DO work.

How about "Jane Fonda's Wank-out"?

[Michael81Dus]

Do we know how many soldiers were killed by the suicide attack at the Palestine hotel?

[ican'tbelieveit]

Excellent way to view it. I say go for it then. Not only will we be giving cute things to those traumatized kids, we will boost the toy manufacturing economy.

[BagCamAddict]

This stupid reporter asked if there was a 1-800 number for the Iraqis to call if they wanted to surrender........OMG!!!

Well sure there is. You can dial it from any phone booth, on any street corner.

[MEG33]

Marked for ref. Thanks!

[retrokitten]

Nobody was killed. 4 were injured.

Koffee = UN Wanketary General

[abnegation]

I remember when Powell talked about the mobile bio labs at the UN.....I wonder what the nay sayers are saying now?
