It was exactly 7 days of combat at 9:30 last night (EST).
We have troops stationed 50 miles out of Baghdad.
We recently took an airfield north of the city.
We did this without much help from other countries and without the ability to use Turkey to fly in from.

Yet all I hear is how we're meeting much more resistance from the Iraqi's. How things are being slowed. How the Iraqi forces are stronger than anticipated.

Anticipated by whom??
If this were really going to be easy, even France would have joined us.

1 Week and many people do not relize this is the largest Military Force in that Region (Middle East)that Our Coalition Forces have gone up against and gained this much so far...I am thankful they have slowed down.. and not rushed right into Baghdad... if I were a Military Stratigist (sp) which I am not... I would hold off on baghdad and just keep pounding the forces around it... choking it off... and when they move out to meet our forces take em out... little by little... rather than Rush into allow them to use there Chemicals on our Military and cause Door to Door Urban Battle... knock knock.. Can AkMar come out to Play!!!!!!

God Bless Our Troops!!!!!!

How can anyone watch NBC, ABC and CBS news for anything other than local weather? They are so biased against the USA troops and crying for the damn Iraqi's that were lost in the Market blast. Would not be at all surprised if that turns out to be a misfire by the Iraqis themselves!

Fox News Fair and Balanced is what I watch!

Yes, FOX! CNN is too far left for me.

Are you referring to the airfield at Harir?
