President is speaking at 10:15 ET. Turn on your TV sets. Press Secretary Ari Fleischer just said the opening stages of the war have begun.

I had heard this is how they wanted to start so that they can see surrendering troops and the Iraq troops can see and be over-whelmed.

Interesting strategy. They hope to catch important targets offguard during the day.

Sounds like they had a chance at a "target of opportunity", and went after it.
