"right, and maybe we should hold our assumption that there are scud missiles being fired and burning oil wells as well".
Saddam fired those scuds that Bix couldn't find and he fired those wells that he told Dan Rather he wouldn't. I heard Rather damn near commited suicide because Saddam lied to him.
This old man is off to bed----the wife "may not" have a headache tonight.............................
hmmmm, putine... that i would taste any time! even at 3am. even now! or now! n n nnn now!
we will never know the number of civillian casualties. there can only be educated or less educated guesses. the war will bring deaths from starvation and dehydratation, those will certainly not be counted in. just tried to listen to radio bahrain, but they do not speak a tongue i know. can't find that web i wanted anywhere!
there are things i just don't wanna know...

I haven't seen the film yet. I do kayak, as I am a mere two blocks from the ocean and can just carry it down on my shoulder, and drop it into English Bay. But a twenty minute paddle takes me not to an ice flow and seal meat, but to a very nice outdoor market where I buy donuts dripping as much fat as any seal.
holly cow, now i must run and have one of them lean pockets!!! (sadly there is absolutely nothing else have-able in this house).
perception, my point was that unless we are standing there in baghdad, we'll never know the details. EVEN if we were standing in Baghdad we couldn't know them all.
Saddam is either dead or in hiding .............
how do we save the people from the tyrant bush????????????

The Australian ABC had a human shield on the phone in an interview this morning. He said there was a lot of residential destruction. They intend to make the truth of what's going on be told. I wonder if they'll be allowed ?
Bush will save Iraq from Saddam . who will save the world from Bush!!!
The world as we know it will never be the same, Doug. It changed utterly on Wednesday when armed might replaced the rules of moral and international law.
There have been no new posts from salam pax. One must be concerned for her safety.

Gosh---I wake up this morning and find that fried brains proliferate.
Two reasons why I don't care for Tommy Franks -- one silly and one not silly.
1. He pronounces the final "s" the way Bush does, with a self-conscious, preacherly little lilt.
2. He shows no respect for the enemy. They are scum, dismissable. Good generals respect -- or at least show respect for -- their counterparts. But we are treated to a kind of arrogance, hubris, which (I'm glad to say) carries within it the prospect of a downfall.
I love Dag's posts, particularly as fatigue takes over. I'm going to go back through this thread and cut and paste them into what will be a poem on my hard drive. The poem will end with:
"holly cow, now i must run
and have one of them
lean pockets."
As does brain cell death due to inhalng one's own flatus ..........
Cat's outta da bag, guys. Tommy Franks, when asked what happens if Saddam is found to have been killed -- regime change has been accomplished -- said they will continue "to the end." Hmmm. Bait. Switch. Accomplish imperial goals.

Is this one of the "ISSUES" you want to discuss? Next you will want to criticise the color of his socks or some other "Profound" Issue
