Something Military Happening in Boston???. Something Military Happening in Boston??? I just heard from a friend who was driving on Storrow Drive in Boston and he told me that he saw "20 to 30 soldiers in fatigues going over one of the foot bridges crossing the Charles River with weapoons in hand -- not slung but actually out".  Anyone local know anything?  George W taking out those Harvard Liberals perhaps?

Security you can hear at home. Iraqwar.info: Listen to DC combat air patrols. Here's the audio. The background is utter silence broken by aircraft chatter. Here's what I've heard in the last two minutes: Fourfivetwo? Cccccchh. Hrrlwwlenken. Cccchhwelcome. Tower to Tinker? CccchNrdlschoolbreak. Nordabout onefiveseven. Number two complete and we are swapping raids. Fivefourtwo. Thirtyfourfortyfive grwonswor five rrgon slowly please. Information window parameters. You're going to have to ree ... the background noise. What I have is about six x instrumentation window parameters appear to be over water. Fiveonefive ronseddiwood look attem. Confirm Ron.

how many kurds died?. After some morning conversation with my inlaws about Iraq, I decided to do some research on Saddam. I find it difficult to believe that I've never seen much visual proof of the 1.4 million Saddam alledgedly killed. Mind you even one person is too many in my book, but google came up with an interesting article from World Net Daily   "Having looked at all of the evidence that was available to us, we find it impossible to confirm the State Department's claim that gas was used in this instance. " The article was originally published in 1998 and again in october 2001 after 9-11 and accurately predicts more:   "I continue to make inquiry into the situation in Iraq, as it is likely to brew up into another crisis one of these days when the U.N. has no choice but to conclude that Iraq is not hiding any weapons of mass destruction - or if they are, they are so well hidden that nobody is going to find them." Pointers to Saddam atrocities are appreciated. [Adam Curry: Adam Curry's Weblog] 5:07:59 PM    comment []
