Maybe the Israeli are not planning a full scale ground invasion until they notified U.S to allow time to plan for departure of Americans.
I saw LSSS as the reason the thread was pulled. What does that mean?
Evacuation is going to be dicey if Hez and its sisters have free run in Beirut and around.

Yes, it'll be interesting to see who would get caught in the cross-fire. Especially if the Americans and the British comes in trying to rescue their citizens at the same time Syria and Israel decide to duke it out in Lebanon.
I understand LLSS, but, if there is a 7 ship group steaming up and down that coast, that is hardly a secret, and it is all over CNN and FOX so I think that the cat is out of the bag........
Ya' really think, huh????????
Makes me glad that I'm happy bein' a tourist right here at home!

time for a cup of coffee - LLSS - loose lips sink ships

I doubt a ground invasion will happen, and if it does it won't be any time soon. Something like this takes a lot of time to plan, and I doubt that Israel was expecting to take this action. Plus they are very weary of Hezbollah which had years to prepare for an Israeli invasion.
US tells citizens to consider leaving Lebanon
You Reckin?
Does anyone know what happened with the FReeper trapped behind enemy lines.
We should extend that to Syria and Iran...just to see how much extra laundry has to be done in their palaces, mosques and governmental offices.
You might be right, there may not be a full-scale ground invasion of Lebanon. But one thing is certain, if Hezbollah is not thoroughly decimated right now, they'll rev up their attacks on Israel and if the government is seen to be passive, it will be the end of Olmert's administration and would pave the way for return of "Bibi".

Many thanks to both of you for the prompt response.
Oh...wait...I ALREADY stole THAT one...:)
Heheh, one of my FAVORITE graphics, the "seized" one...
Evacuation is always dicey, we are at war with these people even if many Americans don't understand it. Maybe the French will do it for us. They are good at running away.
ahhh, our government at work ... it wasn't the bombs and guns and bullets and collapsing buildings and fires and blackouts and panicky populace and roads filled with fleeing people and vehicles and Islamic terrorist roaming the street shooting off APG's and rockets ....
it was the State Department advisory that finally tipped us off that something may not be quite right.
I love A-10s! Think we can base them in Israel? I would prefer Buffs but our current political class lacks either the intellect or the guts to use them. Frankly Becca should be one big smoking hole right now.
