An Israeli gunner sits in a mobile artillery piece as it waits to fire into southern Lebanon from a position near Kiryat Shmona, northern Israel , Friday, July 14, 2006.
Thanks for posting this Karl. A lot of info is being posted on different threads.
Nice hey is it hot up there or what?
.
If you are starting a ping list, please put me on it...
From Lebanon:
The Security Council has just shrugged it's shoulders.
Israeli dude gave us a Jerry Maguire "help me help you" speech.
Nasrallah has just declared 'open war' (as opposed to the closed one we've been thoroughly enjoying?)
Hezbollah has just struck an Israeli warship off the coast.
The night sky will surely be lit soon.
Tracer rounds and plumes of fire.
And the Lebanese?
They are eating.

Two Israeli teenagers react after an attack by Hezbollah guerrillas from neighboring Lebanon killed a 5-year-old boy and his grandmother in the northern Israeli village of Meron Friday July 14, 2006. Two days of rocket attacks, mostly in northern Israel, have left four Israelis dead. Nearly 50 other people have been injured as fierce fighting between Israel and the Lebanese militants entered its third day.

If you're gonna have a central thread for the Middle East, it might be wise to go easy on the pictures. Scares the dial-up users away.
Thanks, good idea.
I'd love to know more about this.
