"a senior IDF officer said that Israeli intelligence had significantly infiltrated Hizbullah."

Excellent. A claim that will scare even if it's no true.

"The building that was hit was a mosque that was under construction."

Good thing it wasn't finished. They would have stuffed it full of women and children.

That's not true. The Israeli Air Force has converted B707's for aerial refueling capabilities.

Hezbollah: Now we will bomb your temple!

Israelis: Go ahead. It's right there under your mosque.

I'd be willing to BET that EVERY set of blueprints for Hezbollah underground bunkers ALL have one wall of, or a post or something on the surface, and a nearby sign on it saying: "Future Mosque, brought to you by your leader Nasrallah".

Same as all the construction signs around here... used to say "... your leader Michael Dukakis", then those were replaced by "... William Weld", "... Jane Swift", "Mitt Romney", etc etc.

"I think the bunker busters are being saved up specially for certain sites of interest in Iran."


I think you nailed it MplsSteve. I heard an Israeli general complaining as to how they hadn't been able to get enough bunker busters. Somehow I'm thinking that had something to do with congress, but I could be wrong. You're theory is most likely spot on.

Go see "Cars" instead. Took the kids last night. Great CGI work and a decent storyline. Lotsa funny stuff for all ages -- watch for the "NICE BUTTES" bumper sticker.

It's an all around fun film.

23 tons of bombs on the wall, 23 tons of bombs, if one of those bombs happen to fall, 22 tons of bombs on the wall...

Hezbollah misunderestimated Israel big time

they could die from repercutions too... not necessarily blowing up the bunker but enough boom to shatter internal organs and such

very true, that's why the iranian nuclear program is so hard to take out with conventional weapons.
