Holy Crap! Kaboom is right. Just saw 5 huge explosions right down one street in Bagdad. About a 5 to 8 block strip just got flattend.

5 more explosions on the same street same place.

3 or 4 more same place.

Then a shot of a cruise missle going over the top with a huge flame out the rear end.

I was shocked!

Just confirmed, SA-2 and SA-3s were launched from Baghdad.

your probly right, cruise missles dont shoot big flames out the bellybutton end, unless they get hit. I coulda swore I saw little winglets sticking out just forward of center.

It was a cruise missle- as far as I can tell, they were all cruise missles. You could see dots of light that weren't moving, then would suddenly dive into the targets.

Each command center that is taken out brings the end of the war that much closer.

Even the staunchest critics of the war may be shocked at what is revealed about Saddam's regime.

Your posts make me sick. We learned our lesson about "half assed war" in Vietnam - enjoy the show Bush haters, Americans are dying to give Iraqi's the same right you are now exercising - badmouthing your country.

I sincerely hope that we are not now in the business of freeing the oppressed people of the planet. My taxes are already too high.

For those without TV news handy...

Looks like this place(a palace i think) got hit by at least a half a dozen warheads, then one big one for good measure.

I badmouth whomever i want thank you saurdukar.

Go back to your popcorn and widescreen TV with surroundsound and don't miss the show on CNN.

Better yet, go to iraq and sit on the receiving end of that show, should be better for ya
