#1 ..Don't know if anybody saw the footage of Iraq's 36 CDO going into the hospital, but these guys looked SHARP - tight, disciplined, professional. I think we're about to find out in the near future what a Arab army - properly led and trained - is capable of.

#3 Any bets on if the good Doctor was the one doing the spotting from the rooftop? I hope they keep a good sharp eye on this guy.

And it looks like the Iraqi forces are looking for some good old fashioned payback.

#5 An added plus of capuring the hospital is that medical care there is denied to the terrorists. And reports of injured bunnies, kittens, and baby ducks is now under the strict control of military authorities.

#6 transfer the good baathist sunni doctor to a Shiite area hospital. He'll have a better idea what fighters we're referring to

#7 Kinda strange that they started by taking the bridges, though. Maybe setting up to use the river as the "anvil" in their plan?

#8 I wonder what phone numbers our guys found in the cell phones' call logs? Not to mention the internal phone lists! Things have gotten ever more interesting since our guys landed over there last spring ;-)
