4 missiles. Some shot down by the Patriot.

[Zylka]

INCREDIBLY unreliable source, but someone on another board claims a friend in Saudi Arabia has seen reports that the Iraqis are using chemical weapons. I wonder

[Pekka]

Zylka, now that is some unreliable news man!

[C0ckney]

i'm guessing things are starting fairly slowly, news sites (well bbc at least) are fine.

[Fidel]

hope iraqis are more accurate next time

[DRoseDARs]

No NBC use yet. Only one confirmed Scud shot down, two other missiles launched from Iraq didn't hit anything either.



Watch it LaRusso Wishing death on either side of a war doesn't make either side right or just.

Sadly, in times of war, deafness reaches epidemic levels...

Listen, for every casualty you should be mad at your silly warmongering president, who should know better than avenge his dad's mistakes.
I am sure you will win, but I do hope the Iraqis will make it tough for you. Do you seriously think that, when you cheer those cruise missiles, they actually deliver a political message? They deliver explosives, and they often hit civilians.
Your soldiers are paid to fight and possibly die. They are well fed, paid and trained. They are the agressors. Therefore, I have absolutely no sympathy for them.

Many have fallen into disgusting glow in other forums saying things like 'yeaaaaaaaah kill'em all' and STUPID crap like that. It really makes me angry. I think some soldiers should have attitudes etc. but we who are not participating should not be having hard ons when we hear about Iraqi casualties. We should not hope for them. We should hope for Iraqi soldiers to surrender in masses and civilians surviving. We should also hope American troopers being safe too.

Because when it comes down to it, they're just normal people killing each other with different flag in their sleaves. Please, let's not fall for this in this forum because many other forums has done it already and it makes me sick. We should respect human lives no matter who they are.

[Pekka]

Because this is also about liberating Iraq, or it should be, and Iraqi soldiers ARE the iraqi people. Let's hope war passes quickly with little damage to both sides.

I am hoping as few as possible get hurt in this. LaRusso, I find your comment offensive in the extreme.

i do not understand why i should tremble over american casualties once they started a war of agression. so that they can boast about it once the war is over? this is just a prelude to a bigger conflict with iran, siria, etc. in line...
