Here Come the Fireworks!!
 

A-Day..

upwards of 3000 Tommahawk missles coming in the next couple of days.... not to mention the B-52s are on their way from England.

it's showtime!

Bow down fools! Witness the power from the righteous hand of God.

We should drop some CD singles from Snopp Dogg's new album too.

Are you saying that Bush is the hand of God?

I'd hope he meant the free world is....

How could that be? Everyone knows that God is a woman:Graucho

The USA is God's Kingdom on Earth. We are His chosen people.

As was said yesterday....

"LET THE BODIES HIT THE FLOOR"

A woman wouldn't have fucked things up this bad. She would have simply nagged the shit out Saddam and he would have eventually felt so emotionally screwed over, he would have had no hope but to give up his evil ways.

1 tommahawk missile = 1.000.000 USD

3000 x 1.000.000 = 3.000.000.000


hmmm......

Go back to sleep, dick head.

and you suckers pay for it hahahaha

USA yearly GDP: $14,000,000,000,000

3,000 Tomahawks = 0.21% of yearly GDP.

Bow down fools!

i hope war is finished soon and very low lives lost

Yeah.. I've paid for a few of those... I wanna see em do some damage now.... right up Saddam's ass!

Those fuckers are gonna kick ass!

Have you seen any satellite photos of those hits... amazing. Really fireworks!

and at home, it will soon be raining government defense contracts.

Watching Dogma too?
he he

What are you watching? I haven't seen hardly anything yet

The United States has stores of 2,000 Tomahawks and 200 to 250 ALCMs. Missile replacement rates are far too slow, especially since defense contractors like Boeing and Raytheon have been gearing up for the initial production of next-generation cruise missiles. If they keep firing missiles at the current rate they will be left empty in less then 2 weeks. The shock and awe is a load of crap. Especially since the Iraq military in underground in Russian built bunkers that are silent and cannot be penetrated by any known bomb. The Iraqis only have to sit tight for the next say two weeks and this war will turn. Temperatures are climbing, the british troops are virtually openly rebelling against blair, and the american body bags are already climbing. and so far the americans have won jack shit and not even scratched the Iraqi military!

how do you work that out?

You funny. USA has 4000 tomahwaks just in the Gulf region. This represents 2/3rds of the current inventory. So far, sadly 6 Americans have died and 12 British. In a conflict involving more than 500,000 troops, this is a miniscule loss. Governments usually expect casualty raates of 5-10% in war. We don't need to destroy Iraq... just suck away their will to defend a tyrant.

:thumbsup :thumbsup :thumbsup

OoOo. that first set of explosions was awfully close to the press core... wonder how many of them shyt their pants.

Yeah, those news guys are really close

I don't understand so many people are making fun of this war, this is not an entertainment show.

War is the most terrible thing which can happen to humans

I do agree that this war is needed though, but still I feel sorry for all those people who are gonna die in the next weeks...

holy fuck they are lighting baghdad the fuck up.

now we've got some kick ass bombing!!!

yea it's like daylight... man o man fucking crazy

The king called up his jet fighters
He said you better eaarn your pay
Drop your bombs between the minarets
Down the Casbah way...

Looks like half the city is burning on the Baghdad Live Feed on MsNBC. (No TV access here at the office.)

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha hahahahaha

Yes this is true.. but everyone is watching it... as an entertainment show.. this is a media wet dream...

what's the url?

thats weird guess you can't split with an equal sign or it says ha ha... that was not typed.. fyi

I don't look at this as entertainment or make fun of it.

It's history in the making and unlike most previous wars the public is able to see it as it happens. It's scary.. I'm rattled much like I was on 9/11. I found myself sitting here with my hand over my mouth.

I was raised an Army brat. My dad was career military and served two tours in Vietnam. My brother was in the Navy. My first husband was Army and in the 864th Engineers out of Ft Lewis whose Battalion is over there now, likely to aid with quick construction of landing strips and bridges. Where I live there is a large population of Army, Air Force and Navy personnel and their families. All of this hits very close to home for me.

That said.. it's very necessary at this time. It should have happened years ago.

Where are you getting your numbers on the number of missles in the US arsenal?

Here's one bunker-buster. They seemed to work pretty well the last time around.

Unless the Russians have been building new bunkers (which I'm pretty sure would be a violation of the sanctions), I see no reason to think that Iraq has anything that can't be hit.

Where are the British troops openly rebelling?

How many US soldiers have been killed? Last I heard the only casualities so far were from accidents (which are bound to happen).

I remember the last gulf war, all the talk about how badass the Iraqi army was, how it was going to be another vietnam and that whole "mother of all battles" joke. This time the Iraqi army is weaker. What do you think the outcome is going to be?

may those who die do so swiftly

I'm at a loss for words
