STORM2K

Baghdad falls
With U.S. tanks rolling along major streets, Iraqis waving American flags and key elements of Saddam's government captured by U.S. forces, Iraqi regime appears to have lost control of capital.

It's too soon to tell BUT.....I dang sure wouldn't let my guard down UNTIL we know for sure that Saddams dead! I am deathly afraid that SOMEONE is going to lite off a dirty nuke or a chem weapon, from watching the live coverage, seems we have become too complacent!

Most folks are greeting the soldiers, but, there are still some
pockets of resistance reported, around the city.

Dancing in the streets!

Now we enter teh sniper and sapper phase. It will be interesting to see what happen sin Tikrit and kirkut

Lets just hope this is cautious optimism right now. Until I hear Sadamn and his sons are dead - I won't rule out a surprise attack.

The military minders didn't show up for work and with all the looting and loitering in the streets by the Iraqi's - hopefully the US MIGHT has flexed its muscles and the major fighting is over with....

I agree Dennis....SH is very manipulative, and IF he has a nuke, a chemical or biological weapon waiting for us, he is surely going to wait till he can impart maximum kill. The numbers are just not there yet.

They're discussing another reason of concern, as well.
With all of those civilians running around in the streets
and pulling up in their cars, any one of them could be a
suicide bomber. I would definitely be nervous in that crowd!

The iraqi's are Chanting USA USA USA USA in the streets.

WooHoo....do you think they will start chatting FRANCE FRANCE FRANCE or RUSSIA RUSSIA RUSSIA - hearing this is such a power rush.

LOL - wonder what them french and russians are saying now??? or cursing?

This is Great!!! Saddam may not be dead, but he is certainly out of a Job

.....Doesn't seem to be really over yet; we're going to be there for some time according to our own leaders. They already did not like who was selected to run the country in the interim...

Oh, we know that it's not over - there's still alot of work to
be done! But, major objectives are being met - therein
lies the celebration!

This definitely boosts the moral of our military guys and gals - enjoy the moment - but finish the job.

BTW - who is going to pick who is going to run IRAQ - I know they said someone is already at the helm in Basra - lets hope its not a UN Goon.
