Nothing has started yet Tojo. Just some shakey AA gunners. Isnt it wierd to be able to see the battle scene in the capital of the country we are fighting? Nothing like this in World War II or Vietnam. Technology sure is something....

tomahawks, probably.

CBS says it was a hasty Tomahawk strike on a "target of opportunity" i.e. Iraqi leaders.
But the tape they showed had nothing but AAA fire and some scared birds flying past the camera.

i find it sad the news has nothing better to do then sit around and watch a webcam looking view, interviewing has beens to fill the dead air time, waiting for that big explosion(s) ....

everytime a camera farts, they hit the floor .... pretty sad war has come to this - some morbid level of entertainment

maybe it'll be the next reality show - the gorier the better

AF needs to drop a couple of those airburst bombs and take out their crap in one electronic sizzlin flash ....

all for the war, not the sec by sec coverage - give me the highlights in the morning and evening and fill the rest of the day with good news for a change...

Wonder if Saddam is enjoying his morning cup of coffee?

My guess is either they got intel on movements of either Saddam, or Rep Guard elements.

Either way way I heard of at least one strike that had major secondary's.

Hunker down big guy, more to follow.

At this point its not my job to agree or disagree. All I have to do is support those who are there.

You guys in the sand are in my prayers.
