They will carry cruise missiles close to the border, then will launch them towards targets...

I'd wait until Bush speaks in 15 minutes. We could just be warming up - for bigger things in a few days.

If most of Baghdad city will not be touched....how would we win this war? Most of Iraq's leaders could be in hiding now and how do you plan to win against such tactics?

Reporter: I didn't quite hear that question, some interference in the background

Brokaw: Can you hear me now? :D:p
