I want to be watching the static live shot of that rotary in downtown Baghdad - the one with the statue of Hussein standing in the middle of it (oh, yeah, that helps) - when a column of Abrams tanks just comes rolling onto the screen and into the traffic rotary and on through with a brief pause to put a round into that statue. Bonus points if civilian traffic continues unabated. Hint to civilian drivers: It doesn't matter if you're already on the rotary and they're not, tanks get the right of way.
The other thing I'd love to see is a live broadcast of the Iraqi Information Minister giving a press-conference, when Coalition soldiers come pouring in the doors and an American officer walks up to the podium, side-arm drawn and says, "Sir, you are my prisoner."
