#1 Hahahahahahah! Best laugh I've had today.

Hey, Ali Fedayeen, have you considered taking your comedy act on the road?

#4 Al-Arabiya? Isn't that Peter Arnett's latest employer? They will like his type of journalism.

#5 That would be the Bradley fighting "bus", equiped with the urban renewal chain gun mounted on its turret.

Somehow I can see Ralph Kramden riding into town with one of those babies.

#7 I wondered what happened to all those US and British uniforms Uncle Sadde ordered; either that or the high grade hashhish has finally caught up to the suicide squads (hey, ya gotta get 'em motivated SOMEHOW, and if the virgins don't do it, the opium laced hash might do the trick).

#8 Yeah, saw Iraqi Min of Info interviewed on Iraqi satellite channel by AJ today. He kept going on how we had been pushed out of the airport to about 30-40 kms south. AJ guy did at least ask him for proof, to which Min told him the US had been pushed out of the airport to about 30-40 kms south...again, again. I guess this was last night's "unconventional" attack.
Military pros out there: The Min was standing on roof of him minstry during interview. Would it have been possible to have made a little noise during interview? Ditto for "Saddam's" walk around.

#9 Is "unconventional" a synonym for "imaginary" in the Iraqi dialect?
