Kinda reminds you of Coruscant on the Last Day of the Empire, eh?
As you may or may not know, however, Ysanne Isardkilledthose people celebrating in the streets of Coruscant....Lets not wish the same fate upon these people.
That said, IN YOUR SADDAM! Baghdad falls, almost NO urban fighting, as was expected, AND the lying son of a whore Minister of Informations "We're kicking Coalition ass!" are obviously lies.
Huzzah for the Coalition!
Only if you consider anything after the close of ROTJ to have any value.
I dont
<S> to the coalition forces, but lots to do yet.
Good luck to all!
Of course, alot of what Saddam has done has been very reminiscient of Stalin's atrocities.
And it's not a coincidence. According to former high-ranking Iraqi officials Saddam closely associates himself with Stalin and has an enormous collection of books about the Soviet leader. When Saddam came to power and created his regime, he knowingly followed the example set by Stalin.

And now watch as Turkey invades Iraq to clear Kirkuk of Kurds... Unless, the US forces can convice the Kurds to move on to Tikirt in the next few days.

Fox News is reporting a suicide bomber attack on Marines in Baghdad. This is certainly no surprise to me, and if it was a surprise to military forces in Baghdad, someone's S2/G2 needs to be fired.

Fox and CBS radio are reporting that four US Marines were injured in the suicide bombing. No word yet on any deaths, except of course, the dude in the car.

But as far as board culture in general, I do think that young male overaggression is a contributing factor to the general atmosphere of hostility. It's not SOS and the Mess throwing hand grenades all over the forum- Red
Just on a little note, (I'm sorry, but I don't have any quotes on this):
The reporter that was beaten up by the US military is back on Iraq! Yeah!
Ok, now back to your regular schedule...

The link also mentions as I just heard that a mobile biochem lab was found.

7 POWS, 5 rom the 507th maintenance and the 2 airmen from the downed apache.
Found north of the town of Sammarra, from what im hearing it was a few junior Iraqi servicemen that were behind the releasing. Removing the POWS and then searching out the first group of Marines they came across.
Still 4 Americans missing, hopefully they'll be on their way soon too.
