    The Official Iraq War Thread...

    Ladies and Gentlemen,
    This is it, It looks as if there is no turning back now. We are most likely going to war. I sit here at work and watch CNN and Foxnews, and see places I was at, in a far off Middle East land and hope that it all turns out for the best.
    I have one request for all of you: Regardless of what your position on this war is, weather you feel it is right or wrong, needed or uneeded, good or bad: I ask that you support your troops. Regardless of your poisiton, these men and women, are our fathers, daughters, sons, mothers, sisters, brothers, and friends. They went with or with your support, and they have a job to do.
    I ask that for a little while, you think about that friend or relation that is in the military, and put aside any political differences you might have and, maybe, say a little prayer for them. Ask who you pray to to speed their return, and put an end to this conflict quickly. And, put a little Flag in view for your realtion or friend, and for them alone. Let everyone know you support them at least, if not this great nation, the United States of America.
    Thank you for your time and replies,
    Breg

      As soon as this Battle starts I will reopen this one and close the others. But for now confine all comments to the existing Iraq thread.

      When it does indeed start this one will open as the official thread.

      Everyone be cordial and no cursing nor flaming when it does.

                Just heard that F-117A stealth fighters flew overhead in Iraq for the bombing run.

                  Word is we never intended to bomb bagdad tonight but we got some kind of news or intelligence that someone presented a target that was worth trying to hit. Someone of VERY important positions was moving and targeted. The other sorties were softening missions. those were planned. But we are always ready to hit a opportunistic target. And one may have happened.

                      last I heard it was a target of oppertunity, something happened and they dropped a presicion type bomb, it was not something they had planned for

                      EDIT: you people type fast

                        That is certainly the idea. but it doesn't have to be Saddam but someone close or even a close strike to him is good PR. And the idea is if we can take him out and end it without many lives lost its a goo thing. So we will have to wait and see.

                        Sounds like now that no one expected this target to present itself tonight. It just did and the President reacted and went on TV after calling it. It was the equivilent of a Football play "Audible". It just happened.

                          If there is anyone on earth who is facing more stress than the President tonite, I would like to meet them.

                          If this war could be finished with one cruise missile, it would be fantastic.
