[TEXAN AVIATOR]

Fox news says Air Raid Sirens over bagdad, some small amounts of anti-aircraft fire in Bagdad, WAR HAS BEGUN !

 

[saabcaptain]

CNN: They now say strike this morning was NOT the expected main attack but a sudden attack of opportunity, apparent strike against location Saddam may have been at with reasonable confidence.

CBS: Now saying strike was against "meeting of Iraqi leadership."

 

[trainerjet]

Just messin' with you, dude.

 

[saabcaptain]

Regardless of how you feel about the necessity of war, God bless our military as they begin--and end--this war.

GO USA!

Apparently the Pentagon had a freak chance to get Saddam tonight in Baghdad...diverted a F-117 strike to go get him.

Don't get me wrong, but it'll kinda be a let-down if it turns out we killed Saddam with the first bomb...!

 

[saabcaptain]

Well, time to retire for the evening and have a full day of flying tommorow... got the Tivo set for some all day CNN though so I can relive all the good stuff when I get home tommorow evening.

Last bit of news... 2 major Iraq divisions are surrendering to the 3rd infantry... that is about 20,000 troops!

 

[Skyrunner]

I have to disagree

Apparently the Pentagon had a freak chance to get Saddam tonight in Baghdad...diverted a F-117 strike to go get him.

Are you kidding. Can you imagine the terror felt in minds of all our future enemies, and they know who they are, if we hit the Iraqi leadership in the first minutes of the war. They can stay and fight to their deaths or run, but they'll only die tired.

Now I know how boxers felt when they were about to fight Mike Tyson in his prime.

Re: I have to disagree

I said it'll be kind of a let-down if we killed Saddam with the first bomb.

Are you kidding?

Yes, I am.

From the standpoint of drama, it's no fun to kill the bad guy right away! You've got to draw it out a little, make him sweat!

People Die

"Dragging it out to make him sweat" will result in the deaths of American men and women who have put it all on the line for all of us.


If one bomb did the job............thousands of American families would never have to wonder why their loved one had to make the ultimate sacrifice.


Think before you post

Hey, you military guys really don't have a sense of humor. Wow.

Someone asked me before if I was kidding, and I said YES! Did you get it that time?

Think before you post.

I often do. Maybe you should do the same.
