Iraqi's surrendering to journalists

quote:
One group of Iraq soldiers alongside a road waved a white flag and their raised hands, trying to flag down a group of journalists so they could surrender.

In the town of Safwan, Iraqi civilians eagerly greeted the 1st Marine Division.

One little boy, who had chocolate melted all over his face after a soldier gave him some treats from his ration kit, kept pointing at the sky, saying ``Ameriki, Ameriki.''

Someone needs to start a thread noting the great amount of historical artifacts in Iraq.

This is a worthy topic. The artifacts, I mean.

19:00 GMT+1 After a long debate, the Danish parliament declares war on Iraq. A suggestion to send paratroopers is turned down, and as a compromise they decide to send a submarine and a small surface ship. Only a symbolic gesture...

To help USA defeat the overwhelming Iraqi navy, I suppose? I wonder if my Danish friends will even be ready to leave their home port (150 km from where I am) before it's over.

21.15 GMT +1 A Swedish military intelligence officer in Swedish primetime TV news, commenting Al-Jazeera broadcasts from Bagdad: This camera is really close to the action, just a few blocks away. Western media is too far away to really see what's going on. You clearly see that the Presidental Palace is hit by missile after missile. The precision is impressing, but with such heavy warheads civilian buildings nearby are also damaged. Civilian casualties are very likely.
