I heard they had to drop it in a residential area...So we can all expect the media wave of criticism we will get with that. Hopefully no civilians were harmed...but even if there were none....you know "they" will say we killed like 1500...some BS like that.

Nah, their information minister will be too busy still trying to convince everyone that we haven't entered Baghdad yet and how badly they are "crushing the Coalition".

I had to laugh yesterday - CNN said that the media is calling that information minister "Baghdad Bob".

Byte 2.0 · 04-08-2003, 09:58 AM

we may have got Bagdad Bob in that raid.

I heard that the French have taken "Baghdad Bob" back to Paris, trained him to speak French and were going to install him as the next French President.

Iraqi rescue workers said three bodies had been pulled from the wreckage so far — those of a boy, a young woman and an elderly man.

this seems like a put on to me... it is too much of a coincidence that the three bodies pulled from the rubble make the US look like soulless murderers.

they are still not sure as to the fate of saddam and his sons.

I called it...bout 3 or 4 threads up...

Every time I hear about them dropping bombs on Saddam, I think of the movie "Hotshots".

He'd better watch his butt. He very well be the highest ranking Baath party official still alive.

I'll believe Saddam is dead when they find the body. This speculation is nothing more than that; reminiscent of the Bin Laden "he's alive, no he's dead, no wait..." stuff the media was doing for months.
