Chip Reed was just on MSNBC a minute ago calling in a report that the troops he's imbedded with had just arrived at a Marine checkpoint in Baghdad only moments after a suicide bomber had attacked...nothing further...

Careful tense times over there. No one has ever gotten these people to all get along (in the absence of an iron fist) before. This is not going to be easy.

Can't we close these things off? Or just send out the warning that anyone approaching will be shot.

I realize that we are still in the early stages, but this may be the first war in which we lose more in the rebuilding phase than during the actual fighting. I can't wait until we are able to turn this over to the Iraqi people.

North of the city. Heavy fighting throughout the day. 1 Marine killed. 22 injured. I have heard this reported all day. That was today.

The fighting on MSNBC under the bridge was Monday. 4 3rd infantry soldiers killed and 30 wounded in that very heavy fighting. Don't forget to say some prayers for our troops.

Don't think these are Iraqi's. Probably the fundamentalist "imports".

Though the banner said live the intro by the news reader said it was feed that ad been sent to them by their reporter with the troops BEFORE Baghdad fell...so Fox is reporting nothing and I don't trust CNN go figure

The intensity seems to be growing all of a sudden. Could it be we're getting too close to whatever/whomever the loyalists are trying to protect?
