It has also been reported that Iraqi soldiers have advanced on our troops using Iraqi civilians as human shields.

If this isn't terrorism, what is?

I hope our men can send these evil b@$+@rD$ to H3!!, and quickly too.

Since Saddam has declared that he will use gas/chemicals etc. on our troops if they invade Baghdad, you know what will happen.

Our troops have protective gear. Their troops have protective gear. But the citizens of Baghdad are lucky if they have a roll of duct tape and a plastic garbage bag.

This demon is going to exterminate his own people!

As with most FOX reports, it prefixes every paragraph with "reportedly".

"Breaking News" is announced by FOX in such a way that they can always retract.

Nothing definitive.

Fox News is losing a lot of respect for reporting conjecture. It’s very irresponsible of them given that the stock market hangs on every bit of war news. Not to mention the families of people that are over there.

On the other hand, if it's true it's both good and bad news. Good that they are taking pride in defending their home land from the true enemy. Bad in that "civil" wars are usually the bloodiest.

The key here is fox scooped the sucky news shows they have been too busy trying to see if we are losing the war by counting body bags.


Every news program uses reportedly. No reports are in basrah so it would be pretty difficult to get confirmation.
