have you noticed....

how on CNN or fox news when they have the camera pointing out showing the streets of baghdad there are always cars on the street going back and forth following the traffic rules...

its not like they are army trucks, they are civilian cars..one of the reporters commented how it was rush hour and thats why there was more cars!

Where are these people going?

it almost seems like they are oblivious to the fact there is a war going on.

They're delivering pizzas.

 

[radioouman]

Maybe they ran out of tanks already.

you sure they wernt going all the same way?....out of the city....

If I were in the iraqi army, I would be shooting the hell out of those cameras. I can't believe they are still broadcasting 5 days into the war.

they will use the cameras to show the all the civilian deaths so the world becomes more in conflict with why the us is there. Who would join a war where only civilians are getting killed????

this will create a world out cry...larger than the one already going, thus buying more time and putting a stop to the war.

1. People buying food.
2. Emergency personnel going to work (i.e. police, doctors, nurses, etc).

maybe it's iraqi soldiers pretending to be civilians on their way to go shoot unsuspecting american troops

 

[Bignate603]

Believe it or not they're probably going to work. They don't know what else to do so they're just doing what they always do...

They're going to work. I remember seeing something that the Iraqi government still required certain businesses to be open (like bakers).

They mostly are. They are being told, like in 91, that they are winning. Most have no idea how many US troops will be in their city in a week or so.
