Hezbollah kidnapped two Israeli soldiers on July 12, triggering an Israeli offensive against Lebanon that has killed hundreds of people, mostly civilians.

It's hard to say if they got their target. I've seen reports saying they captured three men, one with the last name Nasrallah. He could be some relative of you know who. But then, the IDF says it captured several guerrillas, so I don't know how to judge the success of the mission.

Do you recall which date...which live thread we were in when we discovered Qana building collapsed?

I was on the thread at the time, but it would take an hour to go back thru my posts.

If you do, Thanks.

"Hussein Nasrallah, Hussein al-Burji and Ahmed al-Ghotah"

Hard to say. These Arabs, particularly terrorists, all seem to have at least 2 or 3 names.

I think it would be the 7-30 one....Sunday morning, because the Qana collapse was the #1 topic on the Sunday shows.

Hi sleuth, I remember reading around 70 people were picked up and charged with spying and I remarked on the thread that some of them will probably never see the light of day again. Are these the people you are talking about? And they executed them in plain sight? I guess Amnesty Intl is already on the case, right?
