US forces are meeting tougher resistance than they anticipated, with 4 dead and 50 wounded during fighting around Nassiriya... Arab channels are reporting a downed plane over Baghdad. I saw on TV Iraqi troops in a little boat, scouring the river Tigris looking for the pilot who may have ejected...

Meanwhile, Iraqi TV claims that it will show captured US soldiers on TV as prisoners of war... this is not going according to plan..... I'm worried.
